Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un.

The entire PACT family is deeply heartbroken to hear of the passing of Dr. Mujtaba.

Dr. Mujtaba was a devoted professional whose contributions and legacy in the field of Psychiatry will continue to inspire generations of practitioners.

We pray that Allah grants him the highest rank in Jannah and provides immense strength and comfort to his beloved family, friends, and colleagues during this profound time of grief.

His service to mental health in Pakistan will be remembered.
