An ICBian by roots, a visionary by mindset, and a digital trailblazer by profession – Muhammad Tahir stands as an inspiring symbol of what talent, dedication, and continuous learning can achieve.

A Journey Rooted in ICB — From a Little Boy in Class I, Quaid-e-Azam House to an IT Expert

Muhammad Tahir’s story with Islamabad College for Boys (ICB) began in 1975, when he entered the institution as a young child joining Class I. Those early years were filled with innocence, excitement, and the distinctive warmth that only ICB’s campus could offer during that era. It was a time when the corridors breathed discipline and respect, and the teachers carried an aura of grace that left lifelong impressions.

The Beginning — An Admission Test and a New World

His journey officially started under the thoughtful eye of Madam Shahnaz Elahi, who conducted his admission test. With her poised demeanor and intuitive understanding of children, she became the first torch-bearer of guidance in his life at ICB. He passed the test, opening the door to a world that would shape his personality, confidence, and character for decades to come.

Welcomed by a Guiding Light

On his first day, he was warmly received into Class I by Madam Tahira Munir. Her kindness, reassuring presence, and loving nature eased his first-day nervousness and helped him feel immediately at home. That gentle welcome was the beginning of a magical educational journey.

Those early years at ICB were powered by teachers who possessed not only knowledge, but love, patience, and the rare gift of recognizing a child’s potential. Their influence created a sense of wonder that stayed with him throughout his school life.

Twelve Enriching, Meaningful Years

From Class I to Class XII, his time at ICB remained a cherished chapter of growth and discovery. Surrounded by inspiring teachers, disciplined environment, lifelong friendships, and values that shaped his identity, he flourished academically and personally. Every classroom, playground, and assembly carried memories that still hold deep significance in his heart.

Entering the World of Technology

With a strong foundation built at ICB, he pursued his passion for emerging technology and graduated with a specialization in Computer Hardware — a field that was witnessing tremendous global momentum at the time. He excelled in the domain, mastering what were considered extremely high-tech IT skills of that era, including:

  • Chip-level hardware troubleshooting

  • System architecture and diagnostics

  • Networking fundamentals

  • Computer assembly and configuration

His training equipped him to stand at the forefront of Pakistan’s developing IT landscape.

With dedication, technical expertise, and a forward-thinking mindset, he quickly gained recognition — establishing himself as one of the standout IT professionals of his time. His early career reflected a pioneering spirit in a rapidly transforming digital world.

A Legacy Rooted in ICB Values

Muhammad Tahir credits ICB — its remarkable teachers, nurturing environment, and values-driven culture — as the foundation of his personal and professional success. Everything he became, from a curious young student to a confident and accomplished IT professional, traces back to that first step onto ICB’s grounds in 1975.

His journey stands as a tribute to the institution and the extraordinary educators who shaped his mind, strengthened his character, and prepared him to thrive in a changing world.

Transition into Sales Engineering – The Bridge Between Tech and Business
