He is among the most prominent classical Arabic writers in the minds of readers, and one of those who made reading a simultaneously emotional and intellectual experience.

Al-Manfaluti was distinguished by his refined Arabic language, which was close to the reader, and by his humanistic style that captured what lay beyond the events: their effect on the soul, and their meaning in life.
