After Prison
Qassem Al-Nasser was left without his Jordanian nationality which was withdrawn after the accusations of the revolution plan. It was not until the General Director of the Civil Affairs Directorate returned the nationality to the members of the Free Officers Movement saying that if you were not Jordanians, who would be. Afterwards, Al-Nasser worked in the Council of Construction for a couple of years, before the Director General of the Public Security Directorate Major General Sharif Mohammad Hashem asked Qassem Al-Nasser to return to the Army. Prime Minister Wasfi al-Tal managed to return Al-Nasser to the Public Security Directorate, where he became the deputy Director General of the Public Security Directorate. Thereafter, King Hussein issued his Royal decree appointing Qassem Al-Nasser as the Director General of the Civil Defence Directorate with the rank of Major General. He continued in this post until his retirement from military services, he then refused further posts considering that it was about time to deal with his own business.

Famous quotes containing the word prison:
“... how I understand that love of living, of being in this wonderful, astounding world even if one can look at it only through the prison bars of illness and suffering! Plus je vois, the more I am thrilled by the spectacle.”

“Thus I alone, where all my freedom grew,
In prison pine with bondage and restraint;
And with remembrance of the greater grief
To banish the less, I find my chief relief.”
