A resident of Attarsuiya locality in Prayagraj, he has been working for the last 10 years to provide vehicles to ferry dead bodies of the poor for free, but during the difficult times of Covid-19, most of his time is spent in helping those in need.
“These are difficult times. I move out as soon as I get a call. In such circumstances, it is not possible to keep ‘roza’ but I know Allah understands,” he said.

Faizul does not ask anyone for money but accepts if someone offers on his own.
Faizul is single by choice.
“If I get involved in worldly things then my work may be interrupted, so I do not want to get married,” said Faizul.
