  His jurisprudence has stories in Najaf. As a result of his good morals, good management, conduct, and his high position, he became the treasurer of the shrine of Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him. Our sheikh Muhammad Harzuddin described it like this and said:

It is known that Safavid Shah Tahmasab brought him from Iran to Iraq to take charge of the shrine and handed over the key to the shrine and the treasury of precious ancient objects and the large treasury containing waqf weapons. which were prepared to defend the shrine, and in general, Najaf Ashraf was in danger from the raids of the Bedouins. And Shah Tahmasb built a school for him in Najaf on the northwest side of it, located in Al-Mashiraq area, around the houses of Hazrat Al-Kumuna, and today, in the year 1295 AH, there is no trace of the school left. And he brought him birds from India, which are known as shrine birds in Najaf, and sometimes as Turani birds.

 

When Sultan Murad Osmani came to Najaf and was honored to visit the shrine of Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, he kept Mullah Abdullah in charge of the Alawi shrine because of his good management and behavior and executive services. The custody of Alavi shrine remained in the hands of his children and descendants until the time of Mullah Yusuf who died in 1270 AH in Najaf.

 

Among the works left behind by Mulla Abdullah Bahabadi: Hashiya Al-Khataei and Hashiya Al-Mutiq by Allameh Taftazani, which today is known as Hashiya Mullah Abdallah, has a Hashia Al-Khataei that he finished at the end of the month of Dhu Qa'dah in holy Mashhad, and margins on the description of Shamsiya and the description Jurisprudence and numerous other references have been quoted from him.[2]
