This book is dedicated to the early Pakistani migrants who arrived in the UK; those individuals who, like my grandfather, are sadly no longer with us. We are forever grateful for the sacrifices they made and are incredibly appreciative of their hard work. We pray that God blesses them for the opportunities they left us with.
