check property before use it,
check wheather object property is string of itself object


foreach($this->dynamic as $value){
             if(is_object($this->$value))
                 echo $this->$value;
}


is_object used to check it . if it object avoid it. thats the solution

if you avoid $ob->user=new user(); line and if you assign $ob->user="username"; than error get solved

Error because one try to access Class , instead of String .
property set dynamically so no control over it . so is there any other solution so i can omit Object of class could not be converted to string in PHP - lain
