He published in 2008 on the episodes of the novel "Angels and Demons", which led to a crisis with the French embassy in Algeria, which demanded the writer to apologize for mentioning the names of its employees in the novel and its chargé d'affaires threatened to take action against the writer, which sparked a wide campaign of solidarity with Al-Ayachi on the part of writers, journalists and trade unionists Algerians.
