AlKhatim, at only 25 years of age, managed to overcome personal physical risk, the harsh geography and the tribal complexities of these lands to call its people to Islam and to set up mosques and Islamic centres of learning which created a link between these lands and the Islamic World. Among his achievements was the establishment of the first teaching centre for the education of women in Sudan. His literary contribution to Islam spanned a wide range of topics from the explanation of the Quran (Taj Altafaseer), through the listing of the Hadith (Fateh Al-Rasool), Fiqh and behaviour (Munjiyat Al-Abeed), Muhammedan Biography (Al-Asrar Al-Rabaniya Fi Mawlid Khair Al-Bareya), Madeeh or description of the Muhammedan traits (Alnour Al-Barraq Fi Madh Al-nabiy Al-Misdaq) to specific writings on many aspects of the Islamic religion.
AlKhatim's remarkable achievement was that he successfully persuaded his people to adopt Islam at a remarkably young age. He established mosques and Islamic educational institutions that connected these lands with the broader Islamic world. Among his notable accomplishments was the founding of the first institution dedicated to women's education in Sudan. His literary output had a profound impact on Islam, encompassing diverse topics such as elucidating the Quran, cataloging Hadith, Fiqh and behavior, Muhammedan biography, and descriptions of Muhammedan traits.
