In her address at the opening of Kadri Dispensary (April 18, 1952), she praises private initiative for providing medical relief to migrants and urges selfless service.

In a speech to the Rotary Club (circa 1952), she discusses international interdependence, the role of businessmen as goodwill ambassadors, the urgent need to alleviate the misery of the masses, and the historical role of Muslim women in sacrifice and valour. Her Idd-ul-Zuha message (1952) highlights the spirit of sacrifice and urges the nation to face challenges with courage and determination.
