===Eid Al-Adha===
Najaf took his food truck The Gyro King to the Islamic Masjid of Jersey City as they celebrated Eid Al-Adha. He was approached by Nakia Bahadir, who was campaigning to be appointed as the new mosque's board member, and promised that he would vote for her in exchange for her promise that he would be the only one allowed to cater food at the mosque's events. As Bahadir agreed, Najaf put up a poster with her picture on his truck.
Later, Najaf was still there when Hameed nearly fell from the mosque's minaret. He watched in complete amazement as Night Light arrived to save the young boy and cheered when Hameed landed on a hard light platform, thus avoiding a fatal fall.Ms. Marvel: 1.02: Crushed
===Battle at Coles Academic High School===
As he was cleaning his food truck, Najaf was alerted by Zoe Zimmer's social media feed that she and her friends were threatened by Damage Control at Coles Academic High School. Najaf thus went to the school and joined in the worried crowd as they could not approach the building due to the Jersey City Police Department stopping them. Najaf then watched as Kamran and Ms. Marvel were attacked by Damage Control. He was nearly hit by a car accidentally thrown by Kamran, but he was saved by Ms. Marvel who used her powers to catch the car, causing Najaf to thank her and cheer. Once Ms. Marvel helped Kamran escape, Najaf went with the crowd to shield her from Damage Control, insisting to Barrie that she had saved their lives, buying enough time for Ms. Marvel to flee from the scene.
In the aftermath of the battle, Najaf posted a video on social media where he expressed his admiration for Ms. Marvel's feats and claimed that she considered his gyros to be the best in all Jersey City.Ms. Marvel: 1.06: No Normal
