Addressing the students via video link, Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr. Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri said that an academic degree is merely an entry point into practical life—the real purpose, he said, is the refinement of one’s personality, morals, and character. He emphasized that it is now the responsibility of the graduates to create ease for others through their high moral conduct, enlightened disposition, and strong character, and to bring about positive change in society. He urged the youth to engage in self-reflection, assess their strengths and weaknesses, and understand that the foundation of every success lies in self-awareness, continuous learning, and a passion for serving humanity.

He added that establishing a remarkable institution like Minhaj University is indeed a significant achievement. Addressing the students, he stated that the Holy Qur’an is the ultimate source of guidance and urged them to adopt the blessed character of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) as their role model.
Deputy Chairman Board of Governors Minhaj University Lahore, Prof. Dr. Hussain Mohi-ud-Din Qadri, said in his speech that Minhaj University is committed not only to providing quality education but also to nurturing students’ character, moral values, and intellectual strength. He congratulated the award holders and gold medalists for their outstanding academic achievements.
