==Major works==
The most notable work of Badayuni is ''[[Muntakhab-ut-Tawarikh]]'' (Selection of Chronicles) or ''Tarikh-i-Badayuni'' (Badayuni's History) composed in 1004 AH (1595). This work in three volumes is a general History of the Muslims of India. The first volume contains an account of [[Babur]] and [[Humayun]]. The second volume exclusively deals with Akbar's reign up to 1595. This volume is an unusually frank and critical account of Akbar's administrative measures, particularly religious and his conduct. This volume was kept concealed till Akbar's death and was published after Jahangir's accession. This book gives a contemporary perspective regarding the development of Akbar's views on religion and his religious policy. The third volume describes the lives and works of Muslim religious figures, scholars, physicians and poets<ref name="Majumdar"/> The first printed edition of the text of this work was published by the College Press, Calcutta in 1865 and later this work was translated into English by G.S.A. Ranking (Vol.I), W.H. Lowe (Vol.II) and T.W. Haig (Vol.III) (published by the Asiatic Society, Calcutta between 1884 and 1925 as a part of their Bibliotheca Indiaca series).

Other works by Badayuni include the ''Bahr-ul-Asmar'', a work on ''Kitab al-Hadith'' "book of [[hadith|sayings]] [of Muhammad]", (lost), a chapter in the ''Tarikh-i-Alfi'' (History of the Millennium), commissioned by Akbar to celebrate the millenary of the [[Hijra (Islam)|Hijrah]], and the ''Najat-ur-Rashid''<ref>Abu'l Fazl Allami (1927, reprint 1993) (tr. into English by [[Heinrich Blochmann]]).''The Ain-I Akbari'', Vol. I, Calcutta: The Asiatic Society, pp.110-11n</ref> (1581), a summary of the ''[[Jami al-Tawarikh]]'', the "Universal History" of [[Rashid-al-Din Hamadani]].{{Citation needed|date=April 2008}}
