As a work of the earliest, it should be preserved and maintained its authenticity so the secrets it contains are not lost by modernization. According to Wan Mohd Shaghir, this book is among the works of Sheikh Ahmad al-Fatani that used to be famous and frequently used in Arabic language studies.

Consequently, an edited edition of Risalat al-Isti c arat should be published thus can be beneficial to students and researchers to read, review and conduct further research.
