This book which was prepared on the basis of teachings by Khorasan Sufism with no influence from Theoretical school of mysticism of Ibn Arabi, is written and composed of five sections and four chapters including major debates such as genesis of the world and human being, subsistence of the public, mystical doctrine, souls' resurrection, and the conducts of various tribes from kings to craftsmen and farmers.
