Club career.
Young Lions.
In 2007, Abdil moved from Warriors FC to join Young Lions on a professional contract. He had to wait until 3 August 2009, when he made his debut appearance for the club in a S.League fixture against the Super Reds. The match ended in a 1–1 draw.

LionsXII.
On 14 April 2012, Robin Chitrakar, coach of the Young Lions at that time, confirmed the departure of Abdil from the club to join the LionsXII in the 2012 Malaysia Super League. Abdil however, only managed to make a total of 5 competitive appearances for the team in the entirety of his stint.
Warriors FC.
Following the underwhelming stint with the LionsXII in the Malaysia Super League, Abdil returned from abroad to rejoin his boyhood club Warriors FC for the 2013 S.League season. Abdil cited his wish to challenge for honors and silverware as his reason for returning to the youth club where he began his footballing career. Abdil made his professional debut on 21 February 2013 in the first match of the season against Woodlands Wellington, with the fixture ending in a 2–2 draw.
On 19 February 2014, Abdil's contract with the Warriors FC was officially terminated, with a misunderstanding between the player and the club's general manager Chong Wei Chiang over a right knee injury, and the player's performance in the league's mandatory fitness test cited as primary reasons for the termination.
Tampines Rovers.
Following Abdil's contract termination by Warriors FC, he agreed professional terms and signed a one-year contract with Tampines Rovers, the defending champions of the 2013 S.League season. On 21 February 2014, Abdil made his debut for the Stags in the 2014 Singapore Community Shield fixture.
Home United.
Abdil rejoined Home United for the 2015 S.League season, making his second debut for the Protectors on 3 March 2015, in a match against Geylang International. The match ended in a 1–1 draw. Abdil earned plaudits with his performances for the club, and was awarded consecutive Man of the Match accolades for his appearances in a Singapore Cup fixture against his boyhood club Warriors FC, as well as a S.League fixture against Japanese satellite club Albirex Niigata (S). Abdil was retained by the club following the conclusion of the season to continue playing with the Protectors in the 2016 S.League season.
