The ‘Family of Good’ hails from a coastal town originally called Barbereen, Serandib, presently known as Beruwela, Sri Lanka. The first Muslims in this area are said to have settled in the 8th century. The lineage of this family originates from the Quraish of Arabia in general and Othman, third Caliph of Islam in particular. The details of migration and settlements are established in the family roots attached to the web site.
The ancestry of the present generation revolves around those born in Kumuster Villa, located in Sheikh Jamaldeen Road, Beruwela spreading their roots all over the island of Sri Lanka and in the world. Canada has become the second home of this family mainly due to immigration of Mahroom ZAM Bari and AGA Barrie in late sixties.
Even though the Family of Good was thriving well before the second world war but reached to the bottom of the curve in fifties. It was after the sixties the family re-established itself to the present status.
Education was a major factor which changed the destiny of this united family. There engineers, doctors, lawyers, accountants , IT specialists and other professionals excelling in their fields. AL-HAMDULILLAH.
The Family of Good is also excelling in various businesses in Sri Lanka. ZAM Refai established ZAM GEMS, in Sri Lanka, in the seventies and his son Ahsan Refai made it an international firm and a leading gem exporters in the island. Similarly Mahroom Mohammed Thahir established ‘THAHIRS’ in the fifties and now hisr sons making it a thriving hardware business.
Alhamdulillah, all praises are to Allah, the present status of the family cannot have been attained without the help of Allah and hard and dedicated efforts made by all members of the Family of Good.
May Allah bless the Family of Good and help them to achieve the best in this World and Hereafter
