Pakistani social media influencer Kanwal Aftab has responded to criticism over her lifestyle after performing Hajj.

Kanwal Aftab and her husband Zulqarnain Sikandar, who started their careers through TikTok, performed the religious pilgrimage together this year.

The couple shared glimpses of their Hajj journey with their followers through social media videos. Their posts received widespread attention from fans and online users.

After returning from Hajj, Kanwal said she faced criticism from some people over her personal choices, including her clothing, travel plans and daily lifestyle.

She said some users were judging her actions by linking everything to her Hajj experience. Kanwal expressed disappointment over the criticism and urged people not to focus on her personal life.

She said that performing Hajj does not mean a person’s entire life becomes open to constant judgment. She asked critics to respect personal choices and avoid unnecessary comments.

Her statement quickly became a topic of discussion on social media. While some users supported her and appreciated her response, others continued to question her views and lifestyle.

The debate once again highlighted the challenges faced by public figures, who often receive both appreciation and criticism for sharing their personal lives online.
