Thank you.

Hi,
The word "abraar" which is translated as "Righteous" is an Arabic loanword and is plural, but since "righteous" is an adjective, and adjectives in English don't change in singular or plural....
anyway,
My translation: The discovery of secrets and Return of the well-doers (benefactors)
