was a famous calligrapher of Ghajar's time. He started playing tombak at the early age of nine. At this time he regularly went to the local traditional
zourkhaneh, not to watch the athletes, but to listen to the rhythms of the tombak used in training of the athletes.
Later he studied tombak with the Mohammad Torkaman, Ostad Hosain Tehrani, and Ostad Dr. Noor Ali Khan Boroumand and Ostad Abdollah Davami.
His talent and knowledge in the art of tombak playing with his background of zourkhaneh's tombak

Farhangfar).
He performed widely and trained many students. His masterpiece in the art of tombak playing
is his accompaniment of the tar of Ostad M.R. Lotfi in Dastgah-e-Segah in the cassette of Parvaz-e-Eshgh, which distributed

He was also familiar with radif repertoire of Persian art music. He was also a poet and a calligrapher.
