Mohammad Ishaq, a 40-year-old dentist hailing from Islamabad, Pakistan, found himself on the receiving end of a life-changing stroke of luck as he emerged victorious in a significant lucky draw held in the UAE.
The recent unveiling of final draw numbers over the weekend resonated far beyond borders, impacting lives in India, Qatar, and Pakistan. The widespread success of the Emirates Draw reflects its global appeal, with winners spanning across the Middle East and Asia.
In the Emirates Draw FAST5 category, three Guaranteed Raffle Draw winners were celebrated, alongside a MEGA7 Second Prize winner who came remarkably close to clinching the Dh100 million Grand Prize, missing it by just one number.
Mohammad Ishaq, attributing his Emirates Draw FAST5 Guaranteed Prize win to a divine gift, expressed gratitude for this unexpected windfall. Transitioning from his dental career, Ishaq has ventured into the ownership of a copper and granite mining enterprise.
Believing in the importance of generosity, Ishaq declared his intention to share the prize money equally among his wife, children, and staff. A regular participant since discovering the draw through social media last year, Ishaq’s number selections often revolve around the number 9, a consistent feature in all his combinations.
During the live draw on Instagram at home, Ishaq initially set aside his phone upon realizing his numbers didn’t align with the Grand Prize. To his surprise, a few minutes later, an email confirmed his Dh50,000 prize. This unexpected triumph has fueled Ishaq’s determination to pursue the MEGA7 Dh100 million, with plans to further enhance and expand his business. As he embarks on this new chapter, Ishaq’s journey stands as a testament to the transformative power of unexpected fortune.
