"I do not like him being coming here."

"I do not like him coming here."

I know that this one is correct and it means I am not fond that he comes here." and then can I also say, "I do not like him being coming here.'? And it means I am not fond that he is coming here." The meaning of like is not the same as 'be fond that' but I want you to understand my point of the question well. So my question is that "I do not like him being coming here" is okay to use for the progressive meaning, you think?

Thank you so much as usual in advance.

How could anyone dislike someone 'being' coming?
I can`t make out how it works.
Don`t make sentences that you think will be correct
based on grammatical knowledge.
On the contrary, you have to keep up with
what the speaker `actually` says or uses.
The most reasonable example in a grammar
will not be an actual usage if it`s not spoken at all.
