He advised Saeed Sahib, (The founder of Hamdard and Madeenatul-Hikma University in Pakistan) on the occasion of extension of Madeenatul-Hikma University to work on Muslim physicians, practitioners of indigenous system of medicine, doctors and surgeons, who deserved to be presented before modern readers.
