Abdul Sattar Edhi, A hero of Humanity
The range and scope of work of Edhi Trust expanded with remarkable speed under the driving spirit of the man behind it. A maternity home was established and emergency ambulance service was started. More donations were received as people's confidence in the activities of the trust grew. With the passage of time, masses gave him the title of the "Angel of mercy".
"I am Muslim but I am a Humanitarian above all, because the basic principals of all religions are rooted in humanity." Abdul Sattar Edhi
