Welcome to my humble home on the web. This pleases me a lot to realize that you really want to know about me. Well! I am Shaikh Sadaqathullah. My Father's name is Shaikh Shamsudeen Mackie and My Mother's name is Ahmed Meeranachi. I have one elder Brother Shaikh Uvaisna Lebbai and one younger Sister Aysha.

I was born in Kayalpattinam on 23rd July 1970 (Hijri 1390, Jamadiul Awwal 19). I studied in Zion Preparatory School & Holy Trinity Senior Secondary School, George Town, Madras. After finishing my schooling, I went to my native town and studied Islam at Zavia Arabic College (A well known Islamic Institution in Kayalpattinam). Now I am settled in the port city of Chennai (Located in the South East Coast of India, Latitude - 13°05' N, Longitude - 80°17' E) for my Business. The Chennai (Madras) is the present gateway to South India, is the capital city of Tamil Nadu State.

I married my maternal uncle's (O.V.Shaikh Shamsudeen) daughter Asiya Katheeja Aalima Aroosia on 3rd May 1993 (Hijri 1412, Shawwal 29), in a ceremony held at Zavia Arabic College, Kayalpattinam. She received her Amateur Radio License in 1997. Her call sign is VU3 SDU. I have two children-a girl Fathima Farooha and a boy Shaikh Shamsudeen Mackie.

I am a MJF Lion belonging to Lions Club of Mylapore (District 324 A-1). I have joined the Lions Club in the year 1995 and also a member of Indian Red Cross Society. I am a regular Blood Donor and my Blood group is A1B Negative (very rare group in the world). I am registered as Blood Donor with the Madras Voluntary Blood Bank.

When I was 21, I came to know about the Ham Radio community and its services. Within the next few years, I obtained my Amateur Radio Licence (1994). In 1998, I founded an Amateur Radio Society in my home town (Kayalpattinam). It is named Kayalpattinam Ham Radio Society and its club call sign is VU2 KYP. I am also currently the Secretary of this society.

I like to travel World over. And so for I have visited a few Countries. I have been involved in designing and updating my own personal web site.

A few amongst them are Reading, Swimming, Driving, Cycling, Chatting in the Amateur Radio and Surfing in the Internet. I love the game of Soccer, but I am not a good player.
