In an interview with Al Watan newspaper on the ocassion of the Kingdom’s 88th National Day last September, he recalled the Ottoman reign in Asir back when the Turkish soldiers looked over the market place in Abha.

Al-Qahtani also remembered the short reign of Prince Hassan Bin Ali Al-Ayed and how he hurried to join the forces of King Abdul Aziz when they arrived from the east. His role in the Baqim war was someone involved in logistics; bringing flour to feed the fighters in the battlefront.

In fact, his memory was so detailed that he even remembered the names of the men from his area who had been chosen to partake in the war: Mubarak Bin Abdullah Al-Abu Hawi, Abdullah Bin Ali Al-Hurais and Mohammed Bin Maeedh Al-Mashouf.

Incredible.
