[3] In 1927, Al-Arrayedh returned to Bahrain and was appointed as an English teacher in the Hidaya al-Khalifa school, a position he held for four years.
His poems were popular in Iraq, Syria and Egypt; such that the American University of Beirut asked him to deliver lectures on Arab literature, which he had agreed to.
[2] Some of his most notable works include "To Bethlehem", a poignant poem that delves into the Palestinian struggle, reflecting his solidarity with the Palestinian cause, "Bitter Bread", a poem that talks about poverty and social injustice, (which are themes that are prevalent in many of his works), and "The Tragedy of Being", a reflective piece on the human condition and the complexities of existence.
[citation needed] Following his death, the King Hamad bin Isa Al-Khalifa, named one of the Kingdom’s most geographically important roads after him — opposite the Bahrain Financial Harbour.
[2] In 2008, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization held an exhibition in Al-Arrayedh's honour in its headquarters in Paris, France.
