In a recent interview, now widely shared on social media, Hamza Ali Abbasi revealed that he was diagnosed with nephritis as a child, a serious condition that severely affects kidney function.
He recalled enduring intense pain between the ages of 8 and 12, explaining how the disease can cause the kidneys to fail without an obvious reason. Abbasi emotionally recounted how his mother would lay down her prayer mat and weep before Allah for his recovery, adding that he considers his healing a special blessing from God.
He went on to share how he struck a deal with his mother: if he passed the CSS exam, he would not pursue a permanent job. After clearing CSS with good marks and even beginning training in the police service, Abbasi eventually chose to walk away from the secure career path his mother preferred so he could follow his true passion for acting.
