He could have easily become a ‘very rich’ man overnight. But he chose to be honest and sincere instead. It was a routine day for Ramin when he picked up a Chinese passenger from Marco Polo hotel in Dubai and dropped him at Gold Souk. The passenger had kept his luggage in the boot of the car. After dropping off the Chinese passenger Ramin was picking up another passenger who informed Ramin that the boot is open and a bag is inside of the boot. When Ramin checked he found a bag full of currency & gold. Ramin informed his operation officer at his company who informed the police. Finally with the help of Police and Arabia Taxi, the passenger found his USD 40,000/- and 9.5kg of Gold back.

Ramin Khan was awarded with certificate and prize money of AED. 10,000/- from RTA, AED. 3,000/- from Arabia Taxi & AED. 1,000/- by the Chinese passenger in recognition of his honest gesture and motivation for others.

For Ramin Khan, a simple middle age gentlemen, money has its importance in life but is nothing for which one should lose his integrity & faith.

“I am a very simple man from Kohaat and honesty is in my nature, on 18th of May I was called by Shaikh Muhammad palace where His Highness congratulated me. A good deed always helps a person in life, I have complete faith in Allah and his reward is all I need and I believe He is watching us all the time and give us respect when we do something good and give us punishment when we do something dishonest.”

These daily life examples are source of encouragement for all of us in every walk of life to maintain our integrity as Muslim & Pakistani. It should not be only when we get some material things to show our honest gesture; it applies to our commitments and our manners in dealing with others as well.
