In one clip, Rakhi, dressed in an abaya, expresses her happiness at the beginning of 2025 with Umrah, saying:
“The world is celebrating New Year, and we are here on a pilgrimage. I believe 2025 will be amazing because I started it with Umrah.”
Another video shows her praying for friends and those in need, describing the experience as peaceful and heartwarming.
For those unfamiliar, Rakhi performed her first Umrah in August 2023, accompanied by her Rakhi brother, Waahiid Ali Khan, and his wife, Shaista Ali Khan. This time, however, she appears to have undertaken the pilgrimage alone.

Rakhi converted to Islam in 2022 after her Nikah with Adil Khan Durrani. However, their marriage ended in 2023, with Rakhi making serious allegations against Adil, who was later jailed for six months before being released on bail.
Her latest Umrah trip has once again put her in the spotlight, drawing both praise and criticism from social media users.
