- Capitalism and the liberation of the fatherland (June 1986) (Banned in Salamat until the fall of Al Kharrabi's regime in 1992) (Nasser expelled him from the Ankur Revolution Council for 4 months because of this book).
- For the sake of the nation (October 1986)
- Jalil Al Kharrabi : The enemy of the Ankur people and struggle (1988) (Banned until 2000)
