Muscat: Thani al Khalasi has donated his blood 136 times over 31 years since he was a student. Furthermore, he continues his humanitarian gesture year after year, providing an inspirational and magnificent example.
Al Khalasi is in his 50s and in good shape and cheerful. He is continually extolling the virtues of blood donation for the donor's health and vigour. He continues to teach others about blood donation with confidence and trust. He even organises campaigns among his family and co-workers because he believes that one drop is insufficient to rescue the hundreds of wounded and injured who are waiting for this drop of life.
He confirms that his contribution to saving a human life represents that greatest honour and recognition for him, stressing that his biggest accomplishment is when he brings a smile back to the life of a sick or injured person. Al Khalasi is pleased with this feeling, and he is practically exceptional compared to those who make a simple effort in some fields, and we see them sprinting to stand in front of the cameras. He does, however, work quietly, impartially, and behind the scenes. Also, he does not want anyone to know anything about him and his good deeds and contributions as guided by Prophet's Muhammad’s saying about a Muslim who gives alms to a fellow Muslim: 'The left hand shouldn't know what the right is doing'.
Al Khalasi’s noble gesture comes at a time when blood banks across Oman are facing a shortage of blood and there are regular pleas to speed up the donation, those of especially rare blood groups.
This champion donor donates blood four times a year. A healthy individual can donate blood every three months without health risks. Of course, Al Khalasi is not the only one attempting to break records in the Sultanate of Oman's blood donation sector and get entry into the prestigious Guinness World Records.
