Cricketer Abdul Qadir is a Son of Imam-e-Masjid (from his home city) , Imam Sahab was against cricket, but allowed AQ to Play on tremendous pressure and his unstoppable passion and expertise. AQ played well in his career, and apologized on his behavior to his father.
Many people made fun of him in his time. But this news (No matter , if publicity stunt or His Real Emotions) made me respect the man much more then i did previously.
There are many cricket players, who are preaching Islam and portraying Islam in their daily lives. but this man Stand Above of them all. AQ is not preaching, Nor Portraying, AQ is Practicing it, Living it. May Allah Give Him Strength & Courage and put his son to straight path. Ameen
