Recently, Dr. Nabiha Ali Khan has been making rounds for her strange statement about dancer and intersex person Mehek Malik, which she discussed on Aroosa Khan’s podcast.
Talking about it, Dr Nabiha Ali Khan said, “I get respect from people who are close to Allah. I admire such people a lot. I want to sit with them. It’s not that you start taking veil and you become pious or Waliullah — it’s not like that. Stay modern and preach Islam. We used to hear that a time will come when modern people will be Allah’s wali, and they will be preaching Islam. I think this is the time when we can meet people with modern attire who are closer to Allah . I see good attributes in everyone. For example, in Mehek Malik, I have seen multiple good qualities. She is a soft hearted person who is running so many households. I am not concerned with what she is doing or how she is earning. I have nothing to do with her profession, I only know how many people she is feeding. I am not concerned about her source of earnings. Even Allah says you should not be concerned about others’ lives. They are responsible for their own actions. We are no one to question them.” Here is the link to the video:
