Al-Jurjani joined the court of the Khwarazmshahis, and composed a number of highly celebrated works for rulers at the time. This manuscript is a broad medical work in two main parts, one of which is a synopsis of Zakhirah-yi Khwarazmshahi by the same author. Another copy of this work is in the Library of the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine, London (see F. Keshavarz, 1986, pp.107-8, no.24)
