… did you see Isfahan, that city of Khald, that holy surah, that soul-nourishing Eden
According to what Dr. Shafaq says, Jamaluddin not only praised Isfahan, but the works of Qadh can also be seen in his poems. In the face of the aggression of some people such as Mujir al-Din, he was very upset towards Isfahan and its people and quickly defended his city.
As it is clear in his poems and the notes of some tazkira writers, Jamal al-Din's family was not part of the class of nobles and poets. As they have mentioned in several places the praise of Ahl al-Bayt and the incident of Karbala. This poet's family was a goldsmith and according to Kamaluddin, his son bought school clothes from the shop. This poet sings about Ahl al-Bayt:

According to what Amin Ahmad Razi says in Haft Iglim Tadzkire; Jamal al-Din Abd al-Razzaq was one of the great poets, his poetry and prose had the solitude of Salasbil and the goodness of the Euphrates and the Nile.
In his unique nature, he was a poet and gentle, and art was a sign of a clear goldsmith. The late Dastgardi writes: In addition to scientific, legal and mathematical degrees, the professor had both goldsmithing and painting skills, so he says:
In the grace of the unique nature and in the grace and art of goldsmithing, in the quality of writing, you were the disciple of his wisdom, and the moon of the sky stole the light from the light of his mind, the grass of virtues is decorated with the flowers of noble morals and is decorated with the weeds of vices.
Tasgardi adds: There is no one else but him as a painter, and those who add a painter to the ancient poets of Isfahan in our age have gone the wrong way.
Jamal al-Din also has poems about wisdom and wisdom, and his divan is full of valuable scientific experiences, which are the result of his deep reflection on the rules of Sharia and the arguments of reason and customary standards of human beings.

Jamal al-Din Abd al-Razzaq literary authorityThe style of Jamaluddin Abdul Razzaq:
The style of this poet in praise, poetry. The similes and themes are generally similar to the style of the previous masters, except that it is closer to the language and style of our era than the Khorasani style. Compared to his contemporary poets such as Anuri and Khaghani, he has a simple speech and is far from spiritual complexity, so he will not need to think much. His sonnets are at a stage of perfection, which can be considered as the introduction to the sonnets of the 7th century, especially Saadi.
Jamal al-Din's poems include sermons and punishments, except for a few things that are mentioned in Madh al-Saadiyan. While studying moral poems, one should not be unaware of the narrowness of thought, the delicacy of the theme, and the innovation in simile, and the literary value of an ode is technically the same.
This poet also has a hand in Sharia sciences, as Damadi says: Jamal al-Din Abdul Razzaq mixed Sharia and poetry together and added to the strength of Persian poetry. And he has control over the rulings of Sharia and the arguments of reason.

Example of Jamaluddin Abdul Razzaq's poem:
Al-Hazard, O heedless ones, the seat of terror. Al-Hazard, O wise people, the saddle of the devil, the people of the escape
O wonder, your heart did not get tired and your life was bored in the saddle of foul air and the saddle of unpleasant waters
The arena of Nadelgosha and the tomb of Nadelpasand is an unprofitable tablet and an incompatible syrup
Death is the ruler in him and calamities are the king in him, oppression is in him the hero and sedition is in him
Safe is impossible for him, justice is hopeless for him, taste is unjust for him, easy is unstable for him
May the moon be disgraced, and the seal's defect, the earth's eclipse, the earth's fault, the wheel's suffering
The seal is the bat of the enemy, the candle is the butterfly, the enemy is the blade of ignorance, and the reason is the foot of the thorn
His narcissus is sick, his tulip is heartbroken, his bud is longing, and the violet is mourning.
You are such a leafless person in sojourn, you are humiliated and you are waiting for the priority of the clergy
You have been a drop of water and you have become a handful of dirt in the middle of this chaos and several campaigns
