Muhammad Amjad Saqib (Punjabi, Urdu: امجد ثاقب; 1 February 1957) is a Pakistani social entrepreneur, development practitioner, former civil servant and author. He is the founder and executive director of Akhuwat Foundation, which is the world's largest Islamic microfinance organization that provides interest-free loans to the most deserving segments of society. Since its establishment in 2001, the organisation has disbursed over PKR 433 billion in interest-free loans to more than 3.8 million families in Pakistan (as of September, 2026). Akhuwat works in multiple areas of poverty alleviation and has initiated several projects, including Akhuwat Institute Kasur (AIK), described as Pakistan's first fee-free university, which admits students from across the country who may not otherwise have access to higher education. The organisation also runs programmes related to financial inclusion, access to education and healthcare, support for the transgender community, and the provision of food and clothing. Saqib’s professional work has been associated with social mobilization, poverty alleviation, microfinance, and education management. He has authored nine books, including Akhuwat ka Safar and Molu Musali, which document the formation of Akhuwat, and he contributes opinion columns to various Pakistani newspapers. His recognitions include national and international awards such as the Sitara-e-Imtiaz and Hilal-e-Imtiaz, as well as the Ramon Magsaysay Award in 2021 for the organisation's interest-free loan programme.
