Another, and this is the first edition of the book issued under the title "The Disease and the Cure," and it has the feature that its publisher declared that he relied on a copy which he did not mention its place, describing it as "extremely accurate and precise," then published at the beginning of the book photographed pages from it showing that it was in the handwriting of Sheikh Abdullah bin Faiz bin Mansoor Abu Al-Khail, who wrote it in the year 1247 AH (1).

And with that, the book was printed in editions that are difficult to enumerate, and I have come across many of them, but those that deserve to be mentioned rely on three manuscript copies: the edition of Dar Ibn Kathir in Damascus - Beirut in the year 1408 AH (1988 AD) under the care of Sheikh Yusuf Ali Bidiwi, who mentioned that he relied on the Al-Dhahiriya copy.

And about this copy, the Sheikh Amir bin Ali Yasin issued the book in the year 1417 AH (1997 AD), and he described it as generally good, but it contains errors and distortions that are not few, and there are also many passages in it that are vague and difficult to read except by guesswork and assumption" (p. 26).
