Hafiz Abu Bakr, an eighth-grade student hailing from Mansehra, Pakhtunkhwa, has brought honor to the nation with his exceptional performance.
His mesmerizing recitation of the Quran has swiftly gained traction on social media platforms, becoming the talk of the town. People from all walks of life are lauding his impeccable rendition of the holy verses and expressing their admiration by sharing clips of his recitations.
The widespread appreciation for his talent has led many social media users to call upon the Pakistani government to bestow him with a national award, acknowledging his outstanding representation of the country on the international stage.
