Businessman

By 1973 he would first meet Darwish Wajia, and became a economic leader of the Gulbistan Irfanic Society. He would build a new petroleum business, but it would be shut down for attempt to slip through tariffs.

He would be released in 1983 after two years. He would begin to donate to anti-government organizations in secret, namely the GIS. In 1985, after Paywastun's death and the rise of Marri, Wajiw would call for a Jirga and Sherzai would be in attendance. A Rebellion would be declared by the tribal leaders, and the Gulbistani Civil War would begin.
Military Career
For the first two years he would mainly fund rebel forces through his wealth. He would be granted an officer position by Wajia and served with rebel military supreme commander Ahmed Badrashi. He would not see combat until 1991 at the 2nd Battle Of Asawnibad, where his unit would actually perform very well and he would gain a reputation as a military leader. He would be present for the surrender of government forces in 1995 and the establishment of the modern government of Gulbistan.
