AboFlah created his YouTube channel in 2016, under the name "GamesFlah" but after a while he changed the name to its current name "AboFlah". Hassan said that he chose the word "Flah" from the beginning because it is a Gulf word that means "Fun".
Despite AboFlah's success on YouTube, his father rejected his work. This happened after AboFlah reached half a million subscribers. The matter reached the point of his father threatening to boycott it as he considered YouTube "a space for demons".

The first video that AboFlah published on his channel was titled "كلاش اوف كلانس تصميم خرافي الفيديو", which is "Clash of Clans video has fantastic editing". which is no longer visible in the comment at the present time.
