This book was initially written in Arabic language by Abu Mansur, Ahmad b. Ali b. Abi Talib al-Tabrisi.
In the opening of his book, al-Tabrisi articulates the motivation behind his writing: "The inspiration for crafting this book arose from the observation that some Shi'a individuals refrained from engaging in discourse and debate with proponents of differing beliefs. They claimed, 'We are forbidden from such exchanges, as neither the Prophet (s) nor the Imams (a) engaged in debates, nor did they permit Shi'a to do so.' Consequently, I resolved to assemble the compelling arguments advanced by distinguished Shi'a figures against their adversaries within religious doctrine. Subsequently, he clarifies that the restriction on Imams (a) participating in debates was applicable solely to those lacking the ability to effectively defend the tenets of the faith and Shi'a convictions, rather than to those who possessed exceptional proficiency in substantiating the truth and refuting fallacies."
