If you ask about “Umar-u-Ayyaar,” thousands of books have been published about him; and apart from Tilism-e-Hoshruba, countless other situations have been described in which his cleverness and wit shine through. There is no incident that modern writers have not presented of Umar-u-Ayyaar. In this ancient magical world, such strange and astonishing stories are found that even writers do not have answers for their own tales.

This book was also written in that era. But a reader who does not understand its style, or who has not studied great old books, will not appreciate it. The book of Umar-u-Ayyaar describes exactly the kind of situations in which the character of Umar-u-Ayyaar was born — a teacher, a master of philosophy, and someone deeply familiar with spiritual sciences and worldly complexities. But once the magician Seem Mottan entered Iran, he created such chaos that the world turned upside down. It became a new subject of study.

If, after hearing all this, someone asks, “What is this book about?” then it is better to tell them the truth instead of forcing an explanation. The writer has tried his best to narrate this extremely complex story in simple words. But even then, if a person does not understand it after reading it twice or thrice, then their education or intellect itself will explain it to them in its own way.

This story is ancient. Human history couldn’t fully grasp it even with the passage of time. There is still something in it that remains mysterious. Even the two writers who compiled it could not understand it properly. I hope that by reading this book, you will be able to appreciate the uniqueness it offers.
