During his academic career, he also once served as the <strong>Head Master<\/strong>&nbsp;of the prestigious High School of Sehwan Sharif.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-transform:none\">In 1963, he was appointed as a&nbsp;<strong>Lecturer of Islamic Culture.<\/strong>&nbsp;In 1973, he moved to Islamabad since his services were seconded to the Federal Government.

During his training abroad, he stayed in London in 1980, where he underwent a throat operation. He also visited France and Germany, and finally from Nigeria, he went for a pilgrimage to pay his respects to Prophet Muhammad (SAW).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-transform:none\">While still recovering from a throat surgery, his deep love and reverence for his Murshid&nbsp;<strong>Qalandar Saeen (Hazrat La\u2019al Shahbaz Qalandar (RA)<\/strong>&nbsp;brought him to attend the annual congregation of the&nbsp;<strong><u>Anjuman Ghulaman-e-Qalandar<\/u><\/strong>&nbsp;on October 22, 2000. He was so weak that his followers had to hold him while he ascended the 10-feet high stage. Despite all the adverse conditions, he gave a concise and comprehensive speech, and said, \u201cThere is nothing more important to me than my Master\u2019s command. Now, I will not return to Islamabad \u2013 I will live here\u201d He stayed at the house of Dr. Nisar Halepota for a few days. Later, he shifted to a house rented by his followers. He remained seriously ill for the entire next year, battling through several major surgeries like a brave warrior and never complaining.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agqsindhpakistan.com\/index.php\/2024\/03\/16\/biography-qalandar-baba-saeen-ahmed-ali-qureshi-ra\/44753656_1902384286524141_5321418523593932800_n\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-227\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-227\" src=\"https:\/\/agqsindhpakistan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/44753656_1902384286524141_5321418523593932800_n-300x187.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agqsindhpakistan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/44753656_1902384286524141_5321418523593932800_n-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agqsindhpakistan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/44753656_1902384286524141_5321418523593932800_n.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n<p style=\"text-transform:none\">Two days before he passed away, I (<strong>Saeen Ghulam Hyder Shah)<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Saeen Muhammad Ali (RA)<\/strong> went to see him at the hospital.
