Capt. Muazzam Ali Shaheed Welfare Trust – Capt. Muazzam Ali Shaheed Memorial Welfare Hospital

TRIBUTE TO

Dr. Major (Retd.) Yousuf Akhtar Malik

1938–2026,
Capt. Muazzam Ali Shaheed Welfare Hospital began with a simple but powerful conviction held by our Founder, Dr. Yousuf Akhtar Malik: every person deserves dignified, accessible, and compassionate healthcare. With limited resources but unwavering determination, he started with a small clinic in Jhelum and, step by step, built the charitable hospital that stands today.

Through sincerity, sacrifice, and quiet perseverance, he guided this institution from its earliest days to its expansion into a 45‑bed facility serving thousands of families. His honesty, gentle nature, and deep concern for the poor, widows, orphans, and the elderly shaped the culture of this hospital and continue to guide its mission.

Though he has returned to his Creator, his values remain the foundation of our work. This hospital is his lasting sadaqah jariyah, and we remain committed to carrying forward the vision he lived for.

May Allah grant him Jannat al‑Firdous. Ameen.
