Nayrīzī was well-versed in all of the various Islamic sciences of his day and among his followers are counted a number of notable Shiite clerics, such as Shaykh Jaՙfar Najafī, Mullā Mirab Gīlānī, Shaykh Amad As¯'ī and Sayyid Mahdī abāaba'ī (‘Bar al- ՙUlum'). In the Tadhkirat al-awliyā-yi Dhahabiyya, a versified history of the Dhahabī masters by Āqā Mīrā Bābā Shīrāzī, the studies, exploits, compositions, charismatic powers and travels of Nayrīzī are recorded in detail. Nayrīzī was also the author of numerous poetical works and prose treatises in Persian and Arabic, including Risāla-yi Fal al-khiāb, Shams al-ikma, Kanz al-ikma, Anwār al-wilāya, Nūr al-hidāya and Risāla-yi ՙIshqiyya. ‘Fal al-khiāb', his celebrated Arabic poem of some 8,000 couplets, expounds the tenets of Akbarian theosophy and details his mystical experiences. While attacking the corruption of the Safavid clerical establishment, it records in detail the persecution endured by the Sufis and the destruction of their khānaqāhs at the hands of the ՙulamā-yi āhir.5 Nayrīzī's Fal al-khiāb also apparently formed the literary model for Hādī Sabzavārā's (d. 1878) celebrated Arabic Manūma-yi ikmat.
