==Early life==
Edhi was born in 1928 in Bantva in the Gujarat, British India.〔 〕 When he was eleven, his mother became paralysed and her brain veins smashed and she died when he was 19. His personal experiences caused him to develop a system of services for old, mentally ill and challenged people. Edhi and his family migrated to Pakistan in 1947. He then shifted to Karachi to work in a market at a whole sale shop. His mother would give him 1 paisa for his daily eat and another to give to a begger. He initially started as a pedlar, later became a commission agent selling cloth in the wholesale market in Karachi. After a few years, he established a free dispensary with the help from his community. He later established a welfare trust, "Edhi Trust".
Abdul Sattar Edhi was married in 1965 to Bilquis, a nurse who worked at the Edhi dispensary. The couple have four children, two daughters and two sons. Bilquis runs the free maternity home at the headquarters in Karachi and organises the adoption of illegitimate and abandoned babies.
