Ezzuddin was also a member of the Haj Committee of India from June 1999 to March 2003.[7] He is the Chairman of the Saifee Hospital Trust[9] and the Saifee Burhani Upliftment Trust (SBUT).[10][11]

Ezzuddin headed the project for the revival and restoration of the Great Mosque of Kufa in 2010, during the tenure of Mohammed Burhanuddin.[7]

Ezzuddin was appointed by Mohammed Burhanuddin as one of the witnesses of the Nass on Mufaddal Saifuddin, his brother, in 2005.[12] In 2011,[13] he was instructed to make a public announcement of this appointment in a Majlis[14] held in al Masjid ul Husseini[15] in Northolt; London on 5 June 2011. The video of this Majlis was recorded and was broadcast on the same day in Dawoodi Bohra community centers worldwide.[16]
