According to the Popular Mobilization Forces spokesman, al-Salihi was killed as he advanced on Hawija in Iraq. His funeral took place on 30 September 2017.
Before the War in Iraq (2013–2017), al-Salihi fought in the Yom Kippur War, the Iran–Iraq War, the invasion of Kuwait, the Gulf War, and the 2003 US invasion of Iraq. According to al-Salihi, in the Yom Kippur War he was part of an Iraqi brigade fighting on Golan Heights. Around May 2015 al-Salihi joined the Popular Mobilization Forces and was stationed in the Makhoul Mountains in northern Iraq, armed with a Steyr anti materiel rifle. Al-Salihi began fighting ISIS in Jurf Al Nasr. He was trained in his sniper skills by the Russian military.
Months before the Ramadan War in the 1970s, he was nominated to travel to Belarus to train in a course and took second place. The first war he fought in was the Ramadan War in 1973, where he was stationed in the Golan Heights in the 5th mountainous brigade.

From the start of the uprising until 2014, he joined the Sadr brigade where he participated in the liberation of many provinces in Iraq, but he didn't fit well in this brigade, so he joined Liwa Ali Al Akbar and this is where his skills began to show. He had 384 confirmed kills.
