His older brother Ahmad Al Tamimi has also represented Qatar in squash, and competed at the 2010 Asian Games in Guangzhou, People's Republic of China. (SportsDeskOnline, 13 Jun 2018; aspire, 25 Oct 2010)

He played youth football for Aspire Academy and Al Sadd SC in Qatar. (psaworldtour, 16 Jul 2020; aspire, 24 Jul 2018)

He began playing squash at age six, and turned professional in 2011. (squashinfo, 01 Apr 2018; thepeninsulaqatar, 16 Jun 2014)

Originally involved in football at youth level, he was convinced to switch to squash by coach Geoff Hunt. "I started squash as a hobby. I also used to play football and it used to be my life. I had to make a choice between the two [squash and football]. It was a very difficult and challenging decision. There are a lot of football players in Qatar, but few squash players and they mostly play it as a hobby. Without Geoff I can honestly say that, 100%, I would not be playing squash now. I was really sick of it and at 16 years old had set my heart on making the Qatar national football team in time for the [2022] World Cup. But at 17 years old, I had a decision to make, it was either squash or football and Geoff was a huge part of the reason I chose squash. He has been almost like a second father."
