Dear AymanTurky,
I agree with your corrections, I will add them as well in the next update. Thank you!
Just about "احبا" instead "احباء
we have two reading modes: diplomatic and normalized. In the normalized mode, I try to give add information that might help the reader. This is the case in احباء. But if you switch in the diplomatic mode, you will see that there is no hamza.

@AymanTurky:
Folio 125v l.3: المجتوم was an error but I think the reading is actually المحتوم (translating "destinatus est"), and not المختوم. What do you think?

The sign under the word المحتوم is not a dot, it is a little letter ح to stress the very reading.
Such little letters are usual in the medieval accurate handwriting, the only specimen surviving in the modern fonts (other than Iranian by origin) is ك ; the sign in the letter is in fact the very small letter.

Yes absolutely; we find a similar example on the same folio, line 2 : اللحمه

But it is still interesting to think about the meaning of المحتوم and of المختوم :)
