Department of Moalajat (Medicine)

Introduction

Prior to the inception of the Post graduate Department of Moalajat (Medicine) in 1985, it was a section of the then Department of UnaniTib and Surgery. Before separation the Moalajat (Medicine) section was carrying out teaching and training of undergraduate students by well known Hukma (Unani Physicians) of that time like late Hakim Ifhamulla Khan sahib, late Hakim Khalil Ahmed Jaisi sahib, late Hakim Syed Ali Haider Jafri sahib, Hakim Syed Maudood Ashraf sahib and Prof. Abu Bakar Khan with their out standing skill and efforts. All of them had oriental back ground except Prof. Abu Bakar Khan and who had a vast clinical experience of Matab (Unani Clinic).Although they had no formal scientific back ground but to their best efforts they had tried to incorporate modern methods of teaching and research methodology available at that time. All the teaching staff of the department except Hakim Syed Maudood Ashraf sahib had formal scientific qualification and had post graduate qualification either in Ilmul Advia or in Moalajat (Medicine) and one in Modern Medicine also. The combination of oriental and scientific knowledge along with postgraduate qualification; exposure to the research institutions and supervision/guidance of able teachers/personalities had developed scientific research aptitude and confidence in teachers as well as in students of the department for better teaching/research in the field of Moalajat (Medicine).
