 Alam can be said to have written one novella, titled "Mofizon,"and one novel, "Momener Jabanbondi" "Mofizon" is on a theme of the suppressed libidinal instinct in human nature.This short fiction provides a bold treatment of feminine sexual arousal and suppression working simultaneously at a time when Bengali society was not ready for it.It was, therefore, criticised by the conservative section of the Muslim society, but Poet Sufia Kamal, a noted female contemporary writer of Mahbub's wrote very succinctly that everybody blamed ""Mofizon""but nobody understood Mofizon's pains.
