Pakistani digital creator Rajab Butt, who has a massive YouTube following of 6.75 million subscribers, is once again in the spotlight, but this time due to his behavior towards his wife, Emaan Rajab, in a recently released video.
The family dinner vlog initially received positive reactions for its warmth and relatability; however, a particular scene went viral for the wrong reasons. In the clip, Rajab offers food to his sister Ghazal but noticeably overlooks Emaan, which led to widespread criticism of his apparent coldness toward his wife.

Social media users quickly expressed their disappointment, with thousands of comments showing sympathy for Emaan and condemning Rajabβs actions. One fan shared, βMy heart breaks for Emaan. Iβm starting to dislike Rajab Butt,β while another remarked, βHe may be a great son and brother, but clearly fails as a husband.β
Many followers highlighted that while respecting family is important, Islam and basic human decency demand equal respect and love for oneβs spouse. βHe consistently puts others before his wife, and itβs painful to see her being neglected so often,β a viewer stated.
Others applauded Emaanβs patience, saying, βKudos to you, Emaan, for enduring so much.β
The criticism continues to grow, with many urging Rajab to reconsider his behavior and recognize the impact of his actions on both Emaan and his fans, especially since his public vlogs influence a large audience.
