Naghšabi in writing his book involved all types of knowledge he had been familiar with including Quranic verses, prophetic traditions, Persian and Arabic poetry and parables, various sciences such as medicine, astrology, jewelry, music and religion. His knowledge in those different fields of science is not facile, however. He had learned them professionally and not just as a hobby. His acquaintance with medicine comprised three categories of diseases, drugs, and medical literature. This paper is an attempt to study his experience in medicine as he has applied it in writing tuti-nāma.
