He was born in 1907 at Amilo, Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, British India. He was married to Iffat Ara. He has a daughter named Nafis Sadik, who has a long distinguished career track record with the United Nations in the area of 'Family Planning and World Population control'.[3]
Muhammad Shoaib is widely criticized for disapproving the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission's agreement with General Electric of Canada to build a 137 MW Nuclear power plant in Pakistan. Munir Ahmad Khan (then IAEA scientist) urged him for support but his diplomatic decisions created serious delay in Nuclear technology development of the country.[4]
He resigned his position on 23 March 1965 as Finance Minister to join the World Bank as an advisor. He was associated with the World Bank for 20 years and had retired in 1975.[2][1]
