Pakistani cricketer Shadab Khan has revealed that he prayed for his teammate and close friend Babar Azam’s marriage while performing Umrah at the Holy Kaaba.
In a light-hearted yet heartfelt moment during a recent interview, Shadab shared that he made a special dua (prayer) for Babar’s marriage during his spiritual journey to Makkah. “I prayed for Babar’s shadi at the Kaaba,” he said with a smile. “He’s been waiting for the right time, so I thought I’d give him a little push through prayers.”
The revelation sparked an outpouring of reactions on social media, with fans celebrating the strong bond between the two cricketers. Many also expressed curiosity and excitement over Babar’s marriage plans, which have been a topic of speculation for quite some time.
Shadab Khan, who himself got married in early 2023, is known for his close friendship with Babar Azam, with the duo often seen joking and sharing memorable moments both on and off the field.
As fans await any official updates from Babar, Shadab’s sweet gesture at one of the holiest sites in Islam has added a spiritual touch to the ongoing conversation.
