Verse works have become commonplace in many disciplines due to their comprehensive and concise presentation of the subjects of their respective branches, their ease of use, and the growing interest in poetry. One scholar who produced works in this genre was Abu Zayd Abd al-Rahman al-Akhdari (d. 983/1575-76). The brevity of these works can lead to some aspects being difficult to understand, especially by non-Arabs. Consequently, it appears that more commentary work has been done on these works than on other works. One scholar who has studied them in this way is Ahmad ibn Abd al-Mun al-Damanhuri (d. 1192/1778).
