History also shows that the Arfed Humanity Mission and the King Crine Political Committee, during their assignments to the Middle East, held their important meetings in the municipality of Ainab.

One of Ainab's famous locals is Dr. Samir Al- Shaar, who made medical breakthroughs in the name of humanity, precisely in the field of artificial Hearts and Kidneys. Another very prominent figure is Mr. Kamil Nawfal, who was an interpreter and a consultant to five presidents who ruled the United States alternatively. Furthermore, many important poets and authors whose books reached number one positions in distribution were also part of Ainab's famous locals.

Ainab has a hotel that was recently reconstructed and is administrated by the Saint Coeur Nuns. This hotel attracts those who seek mental and spiritual harmony. Another hotel, which has been newly built, will open its doors early next summer.

Ainab also has two restaurants, "Rawabina", which is run privately and has a playground to keep children entertained, and "Ain Restaurant". Ainab also has a number of shops and commercial companies that provide villagers and tourists with all the necessities they desire. Ainab also has a private gymnastic club known as the "Safa Club." 

Ainab is classified as a tourist village and the current municipality board forbids the establishments of factories that could cause disruptive noise or excessive population.

Ainab is considered as one of the first villages that established a municipality board, which was in the late 19th century.
