Months after his demise, Kuwait\'s journalism Icon Sulaiman Al-Fahad and his success story remain a source of inspiration for fellow journalists and historians. \"Sulaiman Al-Fahad writings have left indelible mark on Kuwaiti journalism and culture,\" Journalist Mohammad Al-Sanousi said during an event to celebrate the publication of two new books for late Al-Fahad. \"His books and articles will be remembered for long time.\" Al-Sanousi lauded the impressive approach of late Al-Fahad in writing historic books. \"He was very cleaver in employing his literary and artistic talents in documenting the important stages of Kuwaiti history,\" he said. Ghanem Al-Najjar expressed similar admiration of Al-Fahad\'s legacy. \"He had successfully documented the ordeal of Kuwait people during the Iraqi occupation in 1990.\" Al-Fahad has played an important role in covering the Iraqi occupation and Kuwaiti people resistance to it. He has launched \"Al-Sarkha\" or \"The Cry\" Magazine during the occupation and \"26 February\" Magazine after the liberation of Kuwait in 1991. He also documented the occupation and liberation in two books. \"His patriotic and Arab nationalist spirit was spectacularly also reflected in his writings,\" Journalist Waleed Al-Musallam said.
