Rakhi Sawant Opens Up About Her Faith and Zakat
Ahead of the episode’s release, Rakhi Sawant, Sana Khan, and Mufti Anas Syed interacted briefly with the paparazzi. During the interaction, Rakhi made several revelations about her spiritual journey.

“I recently sent 21 people on Umrah. Since I live in Dubai, half of them were Pakistani and half Indian, people from the lower class who cannot afford it. Now 10 more people are going next week on Monday-Tuesday. I send everyone on Umrah as part of my Zakat,” Rakhi said. Sana Khan started Raunaq-e-Ramzan on her YouTube channel last year, where she invites celebrities and discusses spirituality, faith, and Ramadan.

This season, the show began with Basheer Ali as the first guest, and now Rakhi Sawant has joined the list, making it one of the most talked-about episodes already. In a viral clip, Rakhi is heard saying, “If you fast for a month, all the internal ailments also get cured.” Sana Khan agreed with her and added that Rakhi has always been keen on learning and following religious practices correctly.

Sana shared, “During Ramadan, I used to receive messages and voice notes from her asking what to read now, what should I read now, can I do this thing now? The person who wants to learn always asks questions. She will learn again today.” During the media interaction, Rakhi also mentioned her disciplined routine. “I just finished praying. I did an interview there. I prayed and then came here,” she said, highlighting how she prioritizes her prayers even on busy days. Mufti Anas Syed also revealed that Rakhi often messages him late at night, even at 2 AM, seeking guidance on religious matters.
