Al-Muhairi's Aqeedah was born in the city of Al-Ain in 1920, and his parents died in his youth, which forced him to rely on himself early, so he worked in diving, agriculture and some other simple professions, but at the age of 20 he worked in the profession of folk medicine, and he learned from his grandmother the practice of folk medicine. He has a deep knowledge of how to treat more than 50 types of dangerous diseases, and with his intelligence, he was also able to develop cupping tools, and during his practice of this human profession, he treated thousands of patients.

He also had good experience in restoring and maintaining aflaj, and in that he had the confidence of the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, may God rest his soul, to contribute to the restoration and maintenance of the various aflaj.
Despite his advanced age, al-Muhairi's belief continued to treat those whom he resorted to, who saw folk medicine as a benefit for them, without compensation or for a small fee at the urging of patients.
He also did not skimp on providing any information related to his profession to researchers and scholars interested in folk medicine from a modern scientific point of view, and many people benefited from his experience in the country and abroad, as everyone who asked him for this science, whether medical students or researchers, learned.
The experience of Al Muhairi’s belief did not stop at the limit of his personal knowledge, but transferred this experience to his grandson Eissa, and he learned this from his grandfather and has knowledge of it, practicing marking on some patients.
As soon as Abdullah Al Muhairi, son of the deceased, published the news of the death of his father through his Twitter account, condolences followed.
