Abbasi revealed that his curiosity about various religions led him to study them, ultimately choosing Islam because he found it to be the most logical and spiritually fulfilling. He emphasized that his decision was not influenced by any major life event but stemmed from a natural desire to understand the world, the afterlife, and the concept of accountability in the hereafter.
The actor, who does not claim to be a religious scholar, shared that he practices and discusses the parts of Islam he believes to be intellectually and spiritually true. He stressed that simply being born into a Muslim family is not enough; one must consciously follow and understand the teachings of Islam.
