Al-Jahiz was exceptional in his writing. He wrote many works (more than 360 works, unfortunately, most of which have been lost, but they were mentioned in the translations prepared by historians about him), and his works came in various forms of knowledge. In the book "The Misers," Al-Jahiz relied on humor and sarcasm, and presented satirical art many times. He also approached the public and went down to them, listening to them and writing down his characters in prose, so they appeared before the reader as imaginary of a living skeleton. He narrates the stories of misers and their stories, and depicts the stereotypical miser in general, not the individual miser, talking about him, his actions and behavior, the way he loves money, and how he holds it for fear that it will leave his hand in a caricatured way, but it is depicted in prose and the reader captures it with his imagination. The book includes selections from this book, which are not a substitute for reading the original book, but they provide those who do not have the book a comprehensive idea about the book, its stories, and Al-Jahiz's approach to writing it. Al-Jahiz discusses the reasons that made many people cling to frugality in life to the point of exaggeration, leading them to miserliness, which is what made the author devote a book to that in which he lists their stories and anecdotes, and in which he shows the reasons for their adherence to poverty and lack of self-indulgence.
