Journalism
Saaduddin's desire to become a journalist began in his college years. As a journalist he encountered difficulties in the Philippines that spurred him to write about what he saw as differences between the Islamic way of life and the ideology of the Maute group, Ansar Khilafa Philippines, Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters and Abu Sayyaf.
Saaduddin had interviewed extremists from the southern Philippines with European journalist Lennart Hofman of De Correspondent. He took responsibility for the safety of European journalists during their reporting in September 2018 in Patikul, Sulu, Philippines. His activities sought to bring about peace in troubled areas in Mindanao.
