Maaz Thadal®, a natural coolant crafted from almonds, coriander distillate, vetiver distillate, cardamom, and rose water (Arq-e-Gulab), is celebrated for its ability to replenish energy, cool the body, and restore internal balance, especially during intense heat and fatigue.
With its roots dating back to 1917, Maaz Dawakhana emerged as a humble establishment devoted to the art of Unani healing when Hakeem Muhammad Maaz, a renowned herbalist and practitioner of Unani medicine, established his dawakhana in Nawabshah. Having gained his knowledge of Hikmat and traditional medicine from the esteemed State Takmeel-ut-Tib College & Hospital, Lucknow, India, Hakeem Muhammad Maaz dedicated his practice to prescribing herbal medicines rooted in natural healing and Unani principles. His vision was simple yet profound — to provide authentic, effective, and nature-based remedies to improve the health and well-being of the community.
A Legacy of Innovation and Purity
Continuing his father’s legacy, Hakeem Muhammad Munir brought innovation to Maaz Dawakhana during the 1970s. Educated in the principles of Unani medicine and herbal healing at Jamia Tibbia Sharqia (Faculty of Eastern Medicine, Hamdard University, Karachi), he combined traditional wisdom with a forward-looking vision. With a deep respect for tradition and an understanding of evolving consumer needs, he modernized the formulation and pioneered the natural coolant Maaz Thadal®, enabling its consistent production on a larger scale. This advancement transformed *Maaz Thadal® into a household name, widely recognized for its refreshing taste and natural restorative benefits.
Expanding the Tradition
Encouraged by its success, Maaz Dawakhana expanded its product by introducing a series of premium range herbal and floral sharbats, each created with purity, precision, and purpose. These included:
Sharbat-e-Gulaab, prepared from pure red rose extract (Arq-e-Gulaab), known for its soothing and heart-cooling effects.
Sharbat-e-Motia, crafted from jasmine extract (Arq-e-Motia), admired for its calming and aromatic properties.
Sharbat-e-Abresham, enriched with Zafran (saffron) and select herbs, is valued for its strengthening and revitalizing impact on the body and heart.
Sharbat-e-Sandal, derived from pure sandalwood extract, recognized for its cooling and detoxifying benefits.
For over a century, Maaz Dawakhana has upheld the legacy of its founder combining the wisdom of traditional Unani medicine with the reliability of modern production standards. Guided by a commitment to purity, authenticity, and quality, Maaz Dawakhana continues to deliver the essence of nature’s healing to generations across Pakistan.
