In this work, we study the stagnation point flow of Casson fluid and heat transfer phenomena in presence of thermal radiation and magnetic field. We used the suitable similarity transformation to reduce governing partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations, these equations are solved numerically using Rang-Kutta method. Effects of nondimensional parameters on velocity, temperature are discussed and presented through graphs as well as coefficient of skin friction and local Nusselt numbers is investigated stretching/shrinking cases.
