Al-Ahsa'i has left many works in various topics. There are two bibliographies of his works: (1) Fihrist al-tasanif by Riad Tahir, and (2) a chapter of ''[[Fihrist-i kitab-i mashayikh-i 'izam]]'' by [[Abu l-Qassim 'Ibrahimi]] which is much more detailed than (1). Many of al-Ahsa'i's works are short essays that he wrote in response to some questions; some of these were later recognized as highly significant and were published independently. Al-Ahsa'i has left over 100 essays that might be found in some printed or manuscript collections.

''Sharh al-ziyara al-jami'a al-kabira'' is his most famous work.
*''[[Jawami' al-kalim]]'' ; a collection of 92 essays as responses to some letters. Most of al-Ahsa'i's essays might be found in this collection. The second volume of this work contains 12 long qasidas by al-Ahsa'i as an elegy for [[Imam al-Husayn (a)]].
*''[[Hayat al-nafs fi hazira al-quds]]'' ; a short book concerning the principles of beliefs that is printed both in Jawami' al-kalim and independently. There are two Persian translations of the book by [[Sayyid Kazim Rashti]] and Shaykh Muhammad Husayn 'Azimabadi Hari.
*''Sharh al-ziyara al-jami'a al-kabira'' —the greatest and the best known work of al-Ahsa'i.
*''Sharh al-'arshiyya'' —an exposition of a work by [[Sadr al-Din al-Shirazi]].
*''Sharh al-masha'ir'' —an exposition of a work by Sadr al-Din al-Shirazi.
*''Al-'isma wa l-rij'a'' —in response to Muhammad 'Ali Mirza Dawlatshah concerning [['isma]] (infallibility of the Prophet (s) and Imams (a)) and [[rij'a]] (return of some believers to this world after the appearance ([[zuhur]]) of Imam al-Mahdi (a)).
*''Al-fawa'id'' , containing 12 chapters concerning the general problems of existence, divine creation and human acts. Al-Ahsa'i himself has written an exposition for this book.
*''Majmu'a al-rasa'il'' , containing 33 essays.
*''Majmu'a al-rasa'il (collection of essays) regarding the Quranic disciplines''. Most of these essays are by Muhammad Karim Khan Kermani, and two of them are by al-Ahsa'i: ''Risala fi rasm 'alfaz al-quran al-sharif'' (an essay concerning how the Quranic words should be written), and ''Risala fi ba'd 'asrar al-tajwid'' (an essay concerning how the Quranic words should be pronounced).
*''Mukhtasar al-risala al-haydariyya fi fiqh al-salawat al-yawmiyya'' (it is a fiqhi essay about prayers).
