Hamdard University`s reputation for academic excellence and research, my association with the University is a tremendous privilege for me. No wonder Hamdard University is at the top of private sector universities of the country The Founder of your University (in fact, of Hamdard Pakistan), Shaheed Hakim Mohammed Said, set an example for us all. The way to reach your goal is through hard work and integrity. From two rented rooms some and rented furniture, he made Hamdard what it is today: a national organization with an international reach. He never charged any fees from the millions of patients he saw; only sold his herbal medicines at very moderate price. And, when he reached material success, he converted his organization into a Waqf or Islamic trust, the profits of which go to help the needy: widows, orphans, the poor in need of health care or livelihood or education. And along with the field of philanthropy and health, he realized his dream of spreading education from school to university level.
