“I’ve decided to spend the rest of my life in service of Islam,” stated the Danay Pe Dana singer.

As per Shazia, she had also declined a number of offers to perform overseas as they clashed with her religious obligations and her beliefs.

“I’m grateful to my fans for loving my songs and hope that they will strongly support me in my new move,” said the folk singer.

However, Shazia Khushk’s announcement to quit the showbiz industry isn’t something new to the industry in Pakistan. A number of celebrities have previously bowed out quoting their own personal beliefs as reasons. In Bollywood, recently, actor Zaira Wasim, announced her leave from B-Town stating her profession conflicted with her religious beliefs as a Muslim.
