Criticism and Controversy as Jannat Mirza Shares Her Pilgrimage Journey

Popular Pakistani social media star Jannat Mirza recently made headlines, but not for her usual entertaining content. Instead, her spiritual journey to perform Hajj with her family became the center of attention and criticism. On Instagram, she shared breathtaking photos and stories of her pilgrimage, accompanied by the claim, “The entire plane was just for us,” along with a brief inside-tour video showing an almost empty cabin. Many followers praised her spiritual devotion, but a significant portion of netizens accused her of showing off and trivializing a sacred journey. Comments ranged from sarcastic remarks about the “empty plane” to questions about the sincerity of her intentions. Critics argued that Hajj is a sacred act of devotion meant to be performed modestly and privately, not turned into a social media spectacle. Some pointed out the impracticality of claiming the entire plane was exclusively theirs, suggesting it might have been a regular business class or an empty flight, which can happen occasionally. Others emphasized that such journeys are deeply personal and spiritual, deserving of respect and humility, rather than social media content.

While Jannat Mirza fans called it a “step towards spirituality,” many internet users asked where her wealth was coming from at such a young age, questioning the source of her income. Some critics highlighted the importance of sincerity over showmanship in religious deeds, urging for humility and focus on the spiritual purpose of Hajj. The controversy ignited discussions about the boundaries of social media content, spiritual sincerity, and the need for modesty when sharing religious experiences. As social media continues to influence public perceptions, this debate raises essential questions about authenticity, intention, and respect for sacred practices. May Allah guide everyone to perform their religious duties with sincerity and humility.
