TikTok star Khaby Lame recently shared a message with his followers on Instagram while performing Umrah in Saudi Arabia. Standing in front of the Kaaba, Khaby thanked God for everything he has and for giving him the strength to keep believing in his dreams despite the struggles he has faced in life.
In a previous interview, the 22-year-old confirmed that he is a practising Muslim and a Hafiz-e-Quran, meaning he has memorized the Quran. Khaby, who was born in Senegal and moved to Italy at one, also shared that he attended a Quranic school near Dakar at age 14.
Khaby became the most-followed person on TikTok in 2022, surpassing Charli DβAmelio with 143.2 million followers. He is famous for his silent, sarcastic videos where he simplifies complicated life hacks, using only his facial expressions and body language to mock unnecessary complexity.
