I know Mr. Nazir Bhatti Sahib since 1995 but have had a few meetings with him. On first meeting you will feel him like a cal ocean but when you delve deep into it you will find a mountain of knowledge, expertise and humanity in him. A very candid and respecting elder. May Allah keep his shelter on all of us
