Being a historian in the early years of Islam, he wrote the first report on the [[battle of Karbala]] entitled “Maqtal al-Husayn." There are some disagreements regarding his religion, although he was more interested in [[Shiʿism|Shi'ism]] according to his works. His works are accepted by Shi'as anyway.

Al-Maghazi, al-Radeh, al-Gharat, Fotuh al-Islam, Fotuh al-Khorasan, Maqtal of Amir al-Momenin, Maqtal of al-Hasan and Maqtal of al-Husayn are among his works.
