The beginning was in the land of blessing ( Palestine); when Haj Abdullah Abdulhalim Mahmoud Abu Khadijah was born in Hajjah village in Nablus district, in 1943, he grew up in an atmosphere that combined knowledge with work, he then moved from beloved Palestine to the Jordanian capital (Amman), and then he continued the journey to Qatar, where he took the charge of managing the General Command Office of the Qatari Armed Forces, in addition, he held responsibilities in a number of guest palaces and private projects, such as dairy, plastic, contracting, import and export, agriculture, and general trade, later, he returned to his homeland, Jordan, to benefit it by the accumulative experiences that he had gained. With his wisdom and sincerity, he made gorgeous contributions to his nation through working days and nights, and combining efficient management with strong will, he was assigned to many leadership roles, and was the president of various local and international companies in diverse fields, including education, nutrition, investment, and finance, such as AlIttihad schools, the private university of Applied Sciences, and Ibn Al-Hytham hospital.
With the grace of Allah, Haj Abdullah was a generous man, and in his business, he always aimed at recruiting those with exceptional competencies, which enabled him to achieve success in various applied and financial fields of knowledge, such as management of financial portfolios, the Arab International Company, the Arab Factories Company for Food, the First Islamic Finance, and Trans the World company for technology, science, and energy, and many others.
He was a pious man, dedicated to serve his country, and he didn’t hesitate to help the needy in all ways, and he provided scholarships to unprivileged students, especially those from islamic and neighboring countries. His siblings followed his example in the charity work, and thus they initiated various holy Quran competitions, and conducted charitable activities such as the "Shitana Adfa" campaign, feeding orphans’ programs, and distributing parcels of goods for the honorable fasting people in Ramadan, translating the hadith of Prophet Mohammad, peace be upon him,: “If the son of Adam dies, his work ceases except for three: ongoing charity, beneficial knowledge, or a good son who prays for him.”
We ask Allah, to have mercy upon Haj Abdullah Abdulhalim Mahmoud Abu Khadijah and to unite us with him in his paradise, Ameen.
