It originally contained fourteen illustrations, of which 12 survive. All of the paintings are in a vertical format, and the size ranges from 18 by 12 cm to 18 by 15 cm. The paintings have little to do with the text.
The folios 20b, 21b, 26b, 36a and 40b depict court life. In these, the queen Khunza Humayun was featured, in Indian poses, such as sitting on her husband's lap. These paintings were unorthodox for a work commissioned for the court of a Muslim kingdom. The queen's images were scraped off, probably during the reign of her son Murtaza I.
The folio 29a shows the dohada theme, where a tree blooms at the touch of a young woman. The young woman here is the queen Khunza Humayun. However, her image is not scraped off. Six women surround her, all being dressed in saris.
The folios 34b, 43b, 44a, 45b, 46b and 47a depict the campaign against Vijayanagara.
