Muqam added that, in Iqbal’s view, education is not merely a means to secure employment but a comprehensive process that nurtures a person’s mental, moral, and spiritual development.
He emphasized that character building, responsibility, and purpose-driven education are the fundamental needs of today’s educational and social system.
He said that knowledge must be used as a tool for character formation, awareness must be translated into responsibility, and skills must be employed to ensure societal progress.
Muqam said that this vision is essential for building a strong, independent, and progressive Pakistan.
Concluding his message on Iqbal Day, he reaffirmed the commitment to building a Pakistan that is prosperous and stable, grounded in knowledge, high moral character, and capable youth.
