The book was first printed entirely in Arabic in London in 1852 with the care of the Englishman William Wright. Then de Goeje (Dutch: MJ de Goeje) printed a revised version in Leiden in 1907, and translated the book into many languages, including an Amaran investigation of the Sicily section of the trip, and published it with a French translation in the Asian magazine, and Krolla also relied on the trip in his search for Sicily in the Norman era. Then the Italian "Celestino Schiaparelli" (Italian: Celestino Schiaparelli) translated the entire text and published it in Rome in 1906 AD, and Roland Broadhurst translated it into English and published it in 1952, as it was translated into French by Maurice Godefroy - Demombynes (French: Maurice Gaudefroy-Demombynes) in three parts published between 1949 and 1956.
