Alhaj Rabiul Islam, a resident of Gopalganj Sadar Upazila, is a man whose most prominent feature is his humanity. Whenever he sees people’s problems, he thinks that it is his own problem. Today, he is known to society as the “Peddler of Humanity” for his selfless service. He has already donated blood 35 times, which is a rare example. During the Corona period, when fear and uncertainty are all around, he has stood by the helpless people publicly and privately and helped them as much as he could. In recognition of his humanitarian service, he has received the Humanity Phariwala Award and the ASP Organization’s Crest of Honor. Not only that, he continues to contribute to human welfare regularly as a member and donor to international human rights organizations. Along with serving humanity, he is also a silent partner of religious institutions. He has been providing financial assistance to hundreds of mosques and madrasas, without any publicity. To this aloof man, everyone is equal – he does not look down on anyone, he respects everyone according to their class and status. However, in addition to his humanity, he is also a successful entrepreneur. Last year, Rahim Afroz Battery Limited awarded him the first prize for the Best Seller in Bangladesh. In addition, China Battery Company presented 4 motorcycle awards in recognition of his business success in 2024. Not only is business success visible under his leadership, but he regularly spends a large portion of his business on human welfare. He is the founder of Gopalganj District Human Welfare Organization, through which he continues to help the marginalized people of the society. Alhaj Rabiul Islam believes that-“If you work honestly, Allah Almighty will not return anyone empty-handed.” His philosophy of life proves that success is not just about making money, but also about serving people. He is a unique example of humanity, honesty, and hard work. He is a living inspiration for the younger generation, whose path teaches us that living not for oneself, but for society is the true measure of being a great person.
