Researcher and writer on Middle Eastern historical,  philosophical, social, and 
religious influences on the arab individual.
 
Author of the book:"BUHUTH FI WAQI' UMMATINA MIN AL-MADI WA-AL-HADIR" 
(Research on the state of our nation past and present), in 360 pages
published in Canada in 1994. 
 
Analytic , objective, intellectual, historic and cultural studies of the state
of the Arab nation and the causes of its downfall in the 20th century.
(for details on this book you can visit the author's homepage).
 
I wrote critical analysis on the positions of Ibn Khaldoun regarding
mutliple issues: 
 - Al-Akle (Reason) and its usefullness, - Ibn Khaldoun's
  interpretation of history. 
  (Those issues make two chapters in Vol.I of my book)
- Ibn Khaldoun's war against Jaber Ibn Hayyan and natural sciences namely "CHEMISTRY".
  (5 articles published in the New Jersey weekly newspaper "Al-Itidal" in
  1995, under the title: "Dirasaat Fi Asbab Takhalluf Ummatina (Ibn 
  Khaldoun Baynal Falsafah Walrraj'yyah). I have included them in vol II
  of my book"BUHUTH FI WAQI' UMMATINA". 
 
I also wrote a series of poetry entitled "Al-Akle Yashkou" (The reason
complains).  This poetry is very important to the reader who wishes to see
and listen to Al-Akle, in 7 different scenes, complaining from the Arab
nation after feeling of being abondoned, rejected and became lonely.
