[3] He was born in the village of Abu Saeda in Diyala Province from an Arabian father and a Turkish mother.

When he was five, he moved with his family to Baghdad, where he learned the basics writing, reading and a little bit of Quran.

After a year and a half, Khairi started studying on the hands of Alaa Ad-Din Al-Alusi, the judge of the province.

Khairi studied grammar on the hands of Jaafar Nassar, then by Ali Al-Tareihi and then by Mohammed Al-Sammawi.

It was a mass chaos in the Ottoman lines, which made him escape and disappear in the locality of Mahdiya, in one of his nephew's house.

When the British troops reached the bridge of Khur, he went out of his lair to find Baghdad in the hands of Great Britain.

[9] Khairi was concerned about the Jews, so he called his friend Abdul Majeed Al-Shawi and told him that if they win the British on their side, they will rule the situation.

They agreed on making a meeting in Adhamiyah that includes the opinion leaders, intellectuals and nobles to discuss the situation.

When he heard the national poetry and revolutionary people demanding their country's wealth, he forgot his fear and started cheering for them and cursing the British.

[13] He started to read poetry, encourage people for vengeance against the British troops and demanding independence.

The government didn't trust him at first, because of his articles against the British, but after the Great Iraqi Revolution of 1920 and the crowning of King Faisal, he became one of Iraq's most noble men.
