Dr. Qadri’s father Dr. Fareed ud Din Qadri was from a small very undeveloped city of Pakistan known as Jhung. He was a doctor and a learned scholar of his time. His gift was his immense passion for socio development and revival of social values in marginalised communiteis. His prayers were later to be answered with a blessed child who he would upbring in devotion towards reviving lost human values that harness wellbeing of society at large. Remaining year’s of Dr. Fareed ud Din’s life, teach us a great lesson of devotion towards rigorous early learning and personality development. Such development methods are found embodied in different sciences of the faith of Islam.
