With the establishment of the Republic of Kurdistan in Mahabad in 1945, he joined the ranks of Kurdistan’s Peshmergas and remained faithful to this ideal for the rest of his life. After the defeat of the Republic of Kurdistan, he went to underground for a while. He returned to his family after the situation calmed down, but he never quit ties with the combatants of the Republic of Kurdistan. He always narrated the golden age of the Republic of Kurdistan to his family. After the fall of Shah’s regime, he joined the ranks of the Kurdistan Defense Forces.

He was arrested several times shortly after the Islamic regime invaded Kurdistan and took control of the Hawshar region in 1362 Iranian calendar (1983). He traveled to the city of Bukan in the same year. On his way back home, he was informed by a local mercenary in the city of Shahin Dej that the intelligence service was looking for him, so he had to report himself to that department.
