 Mulla Muslim Jivraj being inspired by his late father’s modest lifestyle of services to the community and the Madh’ab of Ahlulbayt (A.S.) followed his footsteps. He was a teacher at Hussayni Madressah in Dar es Salaam since late 1970s teaching Dinyat and Islamic History.  In 1980 he was elected a committee member of the Hussayni Madressah. Later on he served the Madressah as a Hon. Secretary and Deputy Principal.
-A good Zakir of Imam Hussain (A.S.), Marhum had a unique way of capturing people's hearts with short but effectively toned majalises (with Bandh - Melodious) when reciting in Mehfils and during any death in the community. He also visited many places in Tanzania including Madagascar, Reunion, Dubai, and Milton Keynes in the U.K. for the recitation of Majalises in Muharram.

His ability to recite Majalises at short notice earned him the title of “Mulla Express”. He was also a fine “Nauha” and “Marshia” reciter especially during “Saf Matam”. His recorded recitations are well heard globally.
-He was one of the founder members of Ithna-Asheri Union Volunteer Corps (IUVC) in early 70s and served the community in various capacities including the Nyaz sub-committee, the Musafirkhana sub-committee between 1984 – 1987 and as captain of IUVC in 1984. Until the time of his death he was an active volunteer of Kafan Dafan committee which he served tirelessly.

One of the aims of IUVC was to re-establish Majlis-e-Imam Hussain (AS) in Bagamoyo and [[Hussein Day]] program, both were successfully initiated in the early 1970s, Marhum was one of the senior members of IUVC at the time when the idea of re-starting the majlis in Bagamoyo sprung up. Three elders of our community, namely Marhum Amir Walji, Marhum Amir Kanji and Marhum Jaffer Dhirani supported the IUVC to raise funds for hiring buses and organizing Nyaz in Bagamoyo and thankfully this continues till to-date. The IUVC also revived the Hussain Day program in Muharram/Safar every year in in Dar es Salaam at KSI Jamaat Mosque; this event grew from strength to strength and continued for many years thereafter.
