The word "Hamdard" belongs to the Persian language which is a combination of "Ham" and "Dard". "Ham" means a companion and "Dard" means pain. Hamdard thus means a companion in pain. Such a person is one who deeply compassionate with someone in anguish.

The development of Eastern System of Medicine during the entire 20th century owes its vitality to the two towering figures in the persons of Hakeem Abdul Hameed & Hakim Mohammed Said, who achieved worldwide renown as founders and patrons of the Hamdard.

Hamdard published first Pharmacopoeia in the field of Eastern Medicine titled as "Hamdard Pharmacopoeia of Eastern Medicine" and Hamdard has given birth to an entirely new discipline in medicine -"Medical Elementology",
which investigates the role of elements in the human body on health and diseases.

In Dhaka, Bangladesh Hamdard was established on 1953. The development of Hamdard Bangladesh was going on step by step with a very slow motion. Hakim Md. Yousuf Harun Bhuiyan, a legendary personality took over the responsibility of Hamdard Bangladesh in 1982.

A new dynamism came in the organization within a short time and Hamdard becomes very popular in the country and abroad for its multipurpose humanitarian activities.
