There are several historical discrepancies as to whether Minnigali's family was ethically Tatar[3] or a Bashkir, however archival documents tend to indicate his ethnicity was more likely Tatar.[4]

In July 1939, Minnigali moved to Asha, entered to work in the blast-furnace workshop of the Ashinskiy metallurgical plant.

In 1940-1941 he studied at the oil technical school in Baku.

In 1941 he was drafted into the Red Army. He graduated from the crash course of the military school in 1942. From 1942 he was at the front. Enlisted in the 109th Infantry Division in June 1943.[5]

On September 26-27, 1943, he showed courage in battles on the Molochnaya river. Wounded twice, he refused to leave the battlefield. For the courage and determination shown in battles from January 21 to February 4, 1944, northeast of the 5th kilometer of the village of Solomki, Nikolaev region, in an offensive battle on February 7, 1944 in the settlement of Velyka Lepetykha, by order of February 13, 1944, he was awarded the Order of the Red Star.[6]

His older brother Gubaidullin Timirgali Khabibullovich also fought in the war and was reported missing in action in April 1944.[7]

On March 8, 1944, the platoon commander, Lieutenant Gubaidullin, was ordered to suppress enemy positions at one of the defensive mounds at any cost and break the enemy's defensive line on the Dudchana-Ryadovoye line. During the assault, Minnigali was seriously wounded in the assault, blocking the embrasure of the enemy bunker with his body.[8] On June 3, 1944, by a decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, Guard Lieutenant M. Kh. Gubaidullin was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.
