Later that year, the MQM dismissed him from the party.

- Hussain was a radio personality on FM101. For many years, he has also hosted Ramadan transmissions, including Suhur and Iftar. He began his television career with Pakistan Television Corporation but was quickly fired. In 2001, he became a founding member of Geo TV, where he hosted the religious show Aalim Online.

- In his TV show Khatmay Nabuwat in 2008, Hussain criticised the Ahmadi Community’s founder, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad. The show’s guest academics claimed that everyone linked with the Ahmadi organisation should be killed for blasphemy. Within two days, two important Ahmadi community members were slain, one of them was a physician and the other a community leader.
- Hussain said on his TV show in 2010 that Pakistan’s recent losses in cricket matches were attributable to their new green shoe bottoms. Because green is the colour of the Pakistani flag and the Dome of Muhammad’s tomb, the green shoes were allegedly disrespectful to Islam, and the squad was evidently being divinely chastised. Hussain said that this was a religious issue. He was later chastised in the media for his opinions.
- A compilation of behind-the-scenes footage tapes showing Hussain using various profanities on the set of his show was released online in 2011. In the same video, he is seen laughing off a rape-related topic, ridiculing his religious guests, singing Indian songs spontaneously, and referencing to Bollywood rape scenes. In his defence, Hussain accused Geo TV of fabricating the alleged phoney film in order to undermine his reputation, and claimed that the footage had to be modified and dubbed by “synchronisation masters.” According to The New York Times, Hussain himself stated, “It was my lighter side.”
- Hussain was chastised in 2013 for distributing abandoned children to parents seeking to adopt babies during the Amaan Ramazan transmission. The parents were picked after the Chhipa association conducted background checks, and the baby was given off to them during the show. Child welfare advocates voiced concern that the lack of secrecy could lead to future taunting and stigma for the youngsters and their families.
- In 2014, a religious preacher on a Hussain-hosted TV show declared Ahmadis to be enemies of Islam, and Hussain responded by nodding his head in agreement while the audience applauded. The guest cleric continued to use abusive words against Ahmadis for several minutes while the TV show host applauded. Five days after the presentation, an Ahmadi man, Luqman Ahmad Shehzad, was assassinated in Gujranwala. This was the second time Hussain’s broadcast had been linked to Ahmadi violence.
- In June 2016, the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) stopped Hussain from hosting his Ramadan show Inaam Ghar on Geo Entertainment for three days due to a reenactment of a girl committing suicide by the show’s host.
- Hussain has three wives. With his first wife, Syeda Bushra Aamir, he has two children. He married Syeda Tuba Anwar for the second time in June 2018. This marriage lasted approximately three years. Amir married Syeda Dania Shah, who was 18 at the time, in February 2022. After three months of marriage with Mr. Hussain, his third wife, Syeda Dania Shah, filed for divorce in May 2022. According to News International, Hussain used to physically torture Dania and force her to create sexual tapes with his pals.
- Talking about how he met his third wife, he recalled,
When we met for the first time, it was only for 28 minutes. It wasn’t a 28-day affair. Nothing of that sort ever happened,” Hussain shared. “I visited Lodhran for an event. It was a Milad function organised by an affluent family. I also called Jahangir Tareen Sahab from Lodhran. He later invited me to his farmhouse. After Milad, we went to Lodhran’s Pir’s house. I didn’t know him. I discussed some personal affairs with him. He told me he will settle me with someone now but the only condition was that I wouldn’t get to see her before. When I met her, it was Dania.” Hussain continued, “But when I did meet her, I came to know that when she was a kid and would cry, her parents would put on Aalim Online to calm her.”
- She added,
I didn’t think he was real,” she commented. “To meet someone you have idealised since you were a kid, someone you have been obsessed with and he just appears in front of you; how would you feel?” Hussain then shared how Shah has already allowed him to tie the knot for the fourth time. “She told me I have you, now I don’t want anything or anyone else. You can even marry someone else now.” To this, Shah quipped, “I have also told him that if he wants to marry someone else, he should. I have given him permission to get married for the fourth time.” She went on to add, “It is not my right to stop him from tying the knot again. If he is happy with me and I love him enough, he’d stay with me. If I don’t, then he will find someone else and marry her.”
- In May 2022, actor Syeda Tuba Aamir confirmed that she had filed for divorce from Liaquat. Talking about same, she said,
With a heavy heart, I want to make people aware of a development in my life. My close family and friends are aware that after a separation of 14 months, it was evident that there was no hope for reconciliation in sight and I had to opt to take khula from court. I cannot express how difficult it has been but I trust Allah and His plans. I would appeal to everyone that my decision is respected during these testing times.” - Yasir Shami of Daily Pakistan interviewed Aamir Liaquat’s wife. Before the conversation, the host introduced Dania Shah and stated that Dania has provided us with information indicating that Aamir Liaquat is using narcotics. At the end of the same interview, Yasir Shami asked Dania if she would also present this footage to the court, and she said yes. As a result, Liaqat’s filthy film was released the next day, and it has been circulating on social media ever since.
