Others have hope that he will return
Looks difficult for him to leave showbiz at this peak. Chances are that he would return back to showbiz. Fingers crossed. #HamzaAliAbbasi

These confused bigots use showbiz to make money, name and fame.
Then they denounce it once these goals are achieved.If you’re done, just retire. Stop this disgusting hypocritical mantra of claiming to ‘spread message of Islam’. #HamzaAliAbbasi

one thing I have learnt from Ustadh Ahmed Javed and Ustadh Shahnwaz Farooqi is that one should try his best to stay away from limelight of Media and should think thousand times before speaking. The problem with the likes of #HamzaAliAbbasi is that their attitude is quite opposite

Over all, people are sharing their wishes for Hamza Ali Abbasi to have a successful future

Honestly, we have to say we’re not exactly shocked by this announcement because back in October Hamza Ali Abbasi had himself said that he a “journey” has come to an end and that he would be making an announcement at the end of that month. While the end of October came and went without an announcement, Hamza released his video last night to put all speculation to rest.
Whatever path he has chosen for himself may he find the peace that we’re looking for as humans.
