A recent musical event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, featuring Aima Baig, Bilal Saeed, and Sonu Dance Group from Pakistan, and Indonesian singer Lada Rara, has sparked controversy. Aima Baig’s performance at the event has drawn criticism from netizens, who are questioning her decision to sing after completing the sacred Islamic pilgrimage of Umrah.
Baig had earlier sparked rumors of her departure from Pakistan’s music scene, but later clarified that she was traveling abroad for work. However, her recent performance in Jeddah, followed by posts on Instagram showing her performing Umrah, has led to accusations of inconsistency.
Social media users are criticizing Baig for seemingly mixing her religious and professional pursuits, with some suggesting she should have chosen between performing at the music night or focusing on her Umrah pilgrimage. The controversy has ignited a debate about the intersection of faith and art, with many calling for greater sensitivity and respect for religious traditions.
