There is a lot of mystery that revolves around him & probably because he keeps a low profile & is a very private person.He mainly deals in Precious Gemstones especially top Notch Kashmir blue Sapphires and is considered an expert of Kashmir Sapphires. Touseef is silently very active in charitable works. He has great love and affection towards the Art because his Grandfather & Father were the Art collectors & since his mother is originally from Jammu & Kashmir & the place used to be favourite for the Artist because of Kashmir’s mesmerizing beauty & vastly liberal traditional culture.
Some of the Art works that his family have are of the Artist’s like AR CHUGHTAI , NICHOLAS ROERICH, PR ROY,NS BENDRE etc. & many other works from the Mughal, Maharaja & British times. Touseef lately has also been a silent collector of Art mainly the paintings.Now his ultimate future goal & dream is to open up the hospitals & the Schools for underprivileged people where the treatment & Education would be given free of Cost.
He has been doing lot of charitable works silently and one of his noble work was when Kashmir was hit with the floods back in 2014. (September ). Touseef, his family with other associates raised funds & provided tons of relief in Kashmir and for that he was honoured , felicitated & given an award (Gandhi Global Family Award, 2022 ) from the “Honourable Ex CM of Jammu & Kashmir/leader of opposition in Rajya Sabha (India) Ghulam Nabi Azad”.
Since Touseef is silently active in social welfare works, What is quite interesting & fascinating is that he differs from the usual perception or point of view of the world but believes one’s true character is mainly determined if he does the same in two situations of life & that is to be helpful in any which manner to the people , “one – ‘When all the chips are down or when you are poor’ & other -‘when a person is successful or a rich’ “,The perception of the world usually is that a person could be helpful to the people only when he becomes successful & not when he/she is struggling but there is logic behind his belief.
For example let’s say a rich person who is worth 5 billion USD gives 5 percent to charity every year & a poor person who is worth just peanuts gives 10 percent so for the world rich person’s charity would mean a lot because it would attract eyeballs of the many due to high number & would be highlighted broadly in the news etc whereas the poor person’s charity which is actually higher than the rich ( percentage wise ) would go completely unnoticed except in the eyes of God & for him it can never go unnoticed and matters the most in true means.
Interestingly he has one more example to share in a nutshell that he had once heard or read one Pathan professor probably from Afghanistan saying that there are two types of Account , 1- Your bank Account, 2- Nature’s Account and gentleman further gives example that if you get work worth ( 100 bucks ) you put an extra effort & make it worth (1000 bucks ) & dont worry about your extra effort even if it’s not paid but rest of the work worth (900 bucks ) would add up in your Nature’s Account and Nature pays you back big time.This small piece of advice stayed with him still he puts it in use till date.
Qazi Touseef believes if a person wants to achieve highest level of self satisfaction & true peace one should remain the same in both the situations & when succesful, a person has to be more responsible and should look for giving back to the society.In the end he believes only love & humanity wins over hatred as it has always won in the history of human kind.Faith and Resilience: How Muhammad Jabir rose again in Dubai’s business world.
