Lahore, Pakistan
Al Mustafa Welfare Trust Pakistan continued its extensive humanitarian and healthcare services on the second day of its three-day Free Eye Camp and welfare initiative during the annual Urs of the revered Sufi saint, Hazrat Data Ganj Bakhsh (RA), serving thousands of devotees visiting the shrine in Lahore.
Recognising the spiritual significance of the annual gathering and the needs of the large number of pilgrims, the Trust established a comprehensive service camp to provide free eye examinations alongside a range of essential welfare facilities.
Throughout the day, qualified medical professionals and volunteers conducted free eye check-ups for visitors, helping identify vision-related problems and offering medical advice to those requiring further treatment. The initiative is aimed at ensuring that pilgrims, many of whom travel from distant parts of Pakistan, have access to basic eye healthcare free of cost.
In addition to medical services, Al Mustafa Welfare Trust distributed free meals (Langar), fresh milk, chilled drinking water, and refreshing drinks to thousands of devotees enduring the summer heat. The welfare camp remained active throughout the day, with volunteers working tirelessly to ensure that every visitor was treated with dignity, compassion, and respect.
Speaking on the occasion, representatives of Al Mustafa Welfare Trust said that serving the devotees of Hazrat Data Ganj Bakhsh (RA) is a privilege and one of the organisation’s greatest honours. They reaffirmed the Trust’s commitment to humanitarian service, emphasizing that compassion, selfless care, and public welfare remain at the heart of its mission.
The annual Urs of Hazrat Data Ganj Bakhsh (RA) attracts hundreds of thousands of pilgrims from across Pakistan and abroad, making it one of the country’s largest religious gatherings. During such occasions, the role of charitable organisations becomes vital in supporting visitors through healthcare services, food distribution, and emergency assistance.
Al Mustafa Welfare Trust Pakistan has a long-standing tradition of serving communities through free medical camps, eye care programmes, disaster relief operations, clean water projects, education, and humanitarian assistance across Pakistan and several other countries.
Reaffirming its guiding principle, the organisation stated: “Service is our identity, and humanity is our mission.”
