The post instantly went viral, drawing thousands of likes and heartfelt comments from fans and fellow athletes. Admirers praised Malik for being a doting father, with many calling the post “pure love.”
Father’s pride: Izhaan’s first Umrah
This celebration comes shortly after Malik shared another emotional milestone — Izhaan’s first Umrah.
Posting a picture of his son in Makkah, Malik expressed his deep gratitude and pride:
“May Allah accept your Umrah, Izzu, and protect you always. Baba is super proud of you and sending you lots of love. See you soon,”
he wrote, adding a heart emoji to symbolize his affection.
Fans flooded the comments section with prayers and admiration for the cricketer’s faith and his loving relationship with his son.
A bond beyond borders
Shoaib Malik shares his son Izhaan with Indian tennis icon Sania Mirza. The celebrated couple tied the knot in 2010 in a high-profile cross-border wedding that became a symbol of unity and love between Pakistan and India.
Their son Izhaan was born in October 2018 in Hyderabad, India.
Despite years of speculation surrounding their relationship, Shoaib and Sania eventually parted ways, though both continue to share a close bond with their son and often post affectionate tributes about him online.
Before marrying Sania, Malik also made headlines due to controversy surrounding his alleged first marriage to Ayesha Siddiqui, which was later resolved before his wedding to Sania.
A father’s love shines through
Whether celebrating birthdays or spiritual milestones, Shoaib Malik continues to show that, beyond the fame and headlines, he is a devoted and loving father first.
As fans join him in wishing Izhaan a happy birthday, his posts serve as a reminder of the importance of family, love, and faith — values that resonate deeply with followers across borders.
