His library, including his manuscript collection, was destroyed when his family left Nablus at the time of the Nakba in 1948 and left the entire contents of the house in the hope of returning, but it did not return, so its literary and poetic traces were lost. A poem and several passages or verses remain from his poems in the context of his translations in the study sources. It was mentioned in Al-Babtain’s Dictionary about him, “Al-Nader does not help a few of his verses to derive the characteristics of his poetry, and in general it is thin poetry, in which there is a moral precaution in its spinning, and its images are from the proverb of Arab spinning.”
