Drawing on lessons from his father, the poetry of Allama Iqbal, and decades of medical leadership, he explores how character—built in the mother’s lap, forged by teachers, books, and faith—becomes the foundation of a life well-lived. From the powerful “Lab Pe Aati Hai Dua” prayer to his challenge that passion and purpose can light the world, this talk is a moving blueprint for anyone who wants to leave behind more than just memories—leave behind a legacy.
