He was a hard working personality and owned a readymade garment shop in Ajman and Dubai mostly taking care of clients with requirement of uniforms and coveralls. His dedication towards work was always appreciated by his clients who used to get their things delivered on time always.

He used to voluntarily come forward for the ground work of various functions of the community and used to be there until it was done perfectly.
