Pakistani actress and artist Naimal Khawar has once again won hearts with a powerful and timely message for the youth. She advised young people: “Before choosing a life partner, choose yourself first. Work hard on yourself, get an education, become something, then choose your companion.”
Her words have been widely shared online, resonating deeply with young Pakistanis who often feel pressured to rush into marriage before fully growing as individuals.
Known for her captivating performance in the drama serial Anaa, Naimal left acting after her marriage to actor Hamza Ali Abbasi and has since focused on her art career and raising their son, Mustafa Abbasi. Despite stepping back from the screen, she remains a strong voice on topics of family, personal growth, and marriage.
Naimal has consistently spoken about the importance of planning, practical decisions, and honest communication in relationships. She previously shared that she and Hamza had decided on their family roles before their son’s birth, taking a thoughtful and prepared approach to parenthood.
Most recently, the couple also launched a matrimonial app called Marriage4Life, designed as a safer, intention-driven platform to help people find a life partner, aligned with Islamic values and family-centred goals.
Naimal’s message, that self-investment must come before a life commitment, is one that parents and young followers alike are praising as both courageous and necessary in today’s fast-moving world.
