The IDLG presented Karzai with four candidates for the Governor slot in Baghlan Province and Karzai chose Haqbin, who was said to be a promising technocrat. Abdul Jabar Haqbin (also spelled Jabbar) was appointed as governor of Baghlan in January 2008, replacing Mohammad Alam Ishaqzai, who was removed over allegations of his negligence during the 2007 Baghlan suicide bombing. During his tenure as Governor he spoke in front of a rally supporting Hamid Karzai's threats against the Pakistani Taliban, encouraging the people at the rally to be ready for conflict with Pakistan, remarking: "If the current situation ends up with a war against Pakistan, we will wage it to get the pride of defending our land even if we lose it."

Like his predecessors, Haqbin was removed from his post after serving around a year, and was replaced with Mohammad Akbar Barakzai.

President Hamid Karzai had later issued a decree appointing Abdul Jabbar Haqbin as Chief of the revenue department Kabul City (20100124). Haqbin was appointed Governor Sar-e-Pul Province 20120403.
