With a solid foundation in property ownership, Majid established Sahi Petroleum, transitioning from a dealer to an owner. Today, Sahi Petroleum continues to grow, acquiring more sites and properties, with plans to expand into other states. Majid's legacy is now carried on by his family, with his eldest son, Hamad, managing most of the company's sites.

Majid came to the United States in 1984 with a vision of lifting his family out of poverty in his home village. Starting as a busboy at a Holiday Inn in Washington, DC, he worked a variety of jobs, including taxi driving, pizza delivery, and store clerking. In 1993, Majid purchased his first gas station in Temple Hills, MD. By 1994, he had acquired three Shell sites in the Baltimore area, becoming the region's first Shell dealer. Two of these sites were recognized as the most improved in Maryland in 1995. He continued expanding his business throughout the late 1990s, becoming a Crown dealer in 2001 and acquiring six more gas stations in 2004.
