The man who personified the phenomenon of humanitarianism and philanthropy – Abdul Sattar Edhi left us on 8th July 2016. Edhi was the epitome of kindness, simplicity and altruism; and any attempt at describing his personality and accomplishments is certainly an effort in vain.
In honor of his legacy, Wonderful Engineering has collected some inspirational quotes by the man himself.
- The Holy Book should open in your souls, not on your laps. Open your heart and see God’s people. In their plight, you will find Him.
-
You have to care for all beings created by God…My mission is to help any person in need.
- Those who believed in changing the world were either hungry by circumstance or practiced deprivation by choice.
-
My religion is humanitarianism , which is the basis of every religion in the world.
- You have to care for all beings created by God…My mission is to help any person in need.
- Empty words and long praises do not impress God. Show Him your faith by your deeds.
- I do not have any formal education. What use is education when we do not become human beings? My school is the welfare of humanity.
- Beware of those who attribute petty instructions to God.
- No religion is higher than humanity.
Let us take up Edhi’s spirit and the determination for the service of humanity by continuing his mission.

I took part in competition and I am making graphical poster on Mr. Edhi, am I allowed to use his quotes in my poster?
Edhi was great in spite of his being a Muslim not because of it (at heart he probably rejected Islam). Islam is a plague on mankind, an ideology that is so pernicious that it is asuredly the single greatest evil ever inflicted on humans.
Hi #2 and #5 are thr same, might be stressing the importance perhaps?
Instead of coming up with pithy quotes, Abdul could have made good use of his time fighting against the disgusting blasphemy/apostasy laws of his country Pakistan. Think the wrong thoughts in Pakistan and the government there will kill you for it.
Dear as admin of this site mentioned don’t comment falsified respect him and it is not such a platform to discuss our country’s law and other bad things…..
Everyone and every country has their own bad things. But our badluck is that we become notorious due to some bad peoples. But think we bad ones still have angel like Abdul sattar EDHI. I think this thing is enough for you and otherones who think like that.
My point is this, even though this guy Abdul came up with some smarmy Rumi like quotes he did nothing to address the problem of human rights in his country of Pakistan. Channeling Ralph Waldo Emerson doesn’t help to create the change so desperately needed in Pakistan and in all persecutor nations. He just said a bunch of safe things instead of speaking out against the evil all around him.
I belong to the faith against whom the blasphemy/apostasy laws were created mainly and Ahmadiyya community gave an award to Edhi as well in recognition of his efforts for humanity. He was a wise man that he did not challenged mulla and only did his job, otherwise would have been shot dead a long time ago by any group of fanatics.
He was a great Person , a real human who understood the meaning of life on earth ! Every human being has the right to live on hearth, humanity comes first from all religions ! He has given a lesson to mankind for being humble , caring , helping other Mankind rather indulging in religious conflicts and wasting time on religious foolish cultures , festivals , events ,giving nothing to human being but only wasting time and money. If Edhi’s mission and lessons are thought all over the world , I’m sure there will be no hungry human being on earth.
