Final Farewell
Dr. Shamshad Akhtar’s funeral prayers are scheduled for Sunday in Karachi.
She leaves behind family, colleagues, students, and an entire generation of economists — women and men alike — who saw in her a different model of public service.
One rooted not in noise, but in credibility.
And long after the headlines fade, her signature will remain — moving from hand to hand, note to note — a quiet reminder of a woman who helped hold Pakistan’s financial system together.
May Allah grant her the highest ranks in Jannah. Ameen.
