Someone that world is missing.
A true messenger of God for whom service to humanity was more than ringing bells at a worship place.
Let me be blunt " Noble prize committee will regret not having honoured him with NOBLE PROZE FOR PEACE ,exactly as they regret not having bestowed that honour on Mahatma Gandhi."
Sir
RIP....but the world needs you more than ever.

For sure, Abdus Sattar Edhi was the greatest philanthropist of the 20th century ever known to the unbiased, fair, transparent and neutral men and women of the world and the entire mankind and humanity at large. He was by far, the biggest supporter in cash and kind of all the poor, weak, trifle, minute, insignificant and down trodden people of the world, for whom, nobody cares anymore.
No doubt, he fully deserved the coveted Noble Prize since more than quarter of a century ago but was denied the honor for not being an American or European.
Salute and tribute to him, his family and his great service oriented unique non-profit organization, meant to help all those in life as well as in death, whom nobody is willing and able to help or support.
May God Almighty bless him with peace and solace in the Jannat-ul-Firdous. Aameen, Tsum Aameen.

May his memory help us all to be caring, and action oriented human beings, exactly the way he was. He not only treated everyone equally, irrespective of religion, and social standing but also looked after animals on our streets. What a true and honorable human being. May his soul rest in peace and his family find courage and necessary help in keeping his mission alive.

A great philanthropist he was,
who cared for the poor and the homeless.
Who felt the sorrows and griefs of the poor,
May God give him Eternal Peace,
And grant courage to his son and others,
To follow in his foot-steps for ever and ever.
