Thamer Jabbar is blind since his birth from the city of Kut (the center of Wasit governorate, south of Baghdad).
Jabbar also owns a workshop for repairing electrical materials and mobile phones, and is characterized by his mastery of his work, and he is loved by everyone.
He challenged his disability to pursue a good profession through which he could support his family.
Jabbar says that he relies on himself, and does not like to be dependent on anyone, and instead of the sense of sight, God has endowed him with the ability to know faults and repair motorcycles, washing machines and some electrical tools with a sense of touch, indicating that he uses his tongue to identify faults sometimes.
