Beside this book, Gâmizi Ali Baba has other three important works named Ceride-i Gavamiz, Tercüman-name, and Münsheat. Mysterious Truths can be given as a modern name to Gâmizi’l-Acaib.

The purpose of this article is, being able to comprehend the meaning of Gâmizi Ali Baba’s perspectives or his symbolic fields. By doing this, different viewpoints of his all works can be understood. Gâmizi’l-Acâib can be evaluated as a prosaic shathiya. It includes twelve chapters. There are no definite and permanent relationships among the chapters.

Additionally, the struggles between soul and selfishness/nafs; the thirds, sevens and twelve sinless constitutes the other topics of the book.
