After completing high school at Abadan Razi/or Rhazes or Rasis high school, he was employed by Khuzestan Province Water & Power Authority Board in 1983 and as a legal representative followed up the organization's lawsuits. He realized that the Iranian society is in need of a water and Power legal terminology. He therefore committed to studying in this field and succeeded in providing the first legal dictionary for the Power and water industry in 1999 with the assistance of the Khuzestan Water & Power Authority Board and the Dadgostar publications. This dictionary was announced as the book of the year in the first round of the "Book of the Year" award in Khuzestan in the Winter of 2001 after two rounds of judgments by the head office of the Khuzestan Islamic Guidance and Culture.
