Yes, Hasan Khalid. The self and the miser, meaning the jibbah that represents the self.

Answer:
Yes, his self. The miser is like a tight jibbah; whenever he tries to expand it, it expands again, holding his hands. The rich and the generous one, whenever he tries to spend, the jibbah expands, it expands and spreads out until he spends.
