Abdul Sattar traveled to many other countries for funds, but despite of his good work, he had to face a lot of issues.
- In the early 1980s, Edhi was arrested by Israeli troops while entering Lebanon.
- In 2006, he was detained in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, for 16 hours.
- In January 2008, U.S. immigration officials at the John F. Kennedy Airport in New York City investigated him for over eight hours seizing passport and other documents.
- When asked about the frequent detention Edhi said, “The only explanation I can think of is my beard and my dress.”
- His appearance in a traditional dress and a long beard prompted travel authorities to keep him for questioning.
