Anvar was exceptional in the academic community, distinguished in the fields of gnosis and Quranic sciences and bilingual in poetry.

Examination of Dr. Anvar's poems indicated that he has embellished his words and statements with concepts from the Holy Quran and hadiths, and, hence, has added to the richness of his language. It was also found out that there is a high frequency of phrases from the Quran and tradition in his poetry.
