All over the world, the trend of sportsmen towards religion is increasing and not only in Pakistan,
but also in many non-Muslim countries of the world, the incidents of Muslim sportsmen's love and
faith in Islam often adorn the media. One such player is South Africa's Hashim Amla, regarding
whom reports are also being received regarding the propagation of religion in Pakistan.
Career start:
Hashim Muhammad Amla, the son of a family who migrated from the city of Surat in the Indian
state of Gujarat and settled in South Africa, opened his eyes on March 31, 1983 in Durban.
The inclusion of Muslim Hashim Amla in the South African team during the black-white conflict
was nothing less than a miracle. In 1999, Hashim became part of the provincial team of Natal
province and was made the captain of the South African under-19 team for his continuous good
performance.
Under 19 World Cup was played in 2002. Hashim took the team to the finals through his leadership skills. After seeing Hashim's excellent game, the South African Cricket Board included him in the national team that went to India in 2004. Because of this, there were many difficulties in the beginning.
Career start
Controversy over wine logos:
Players from many countries around the world earn money from the advertisement of various
companies and boards also get huge amount of money in the form of sponsorship but here with
the joining of Hashim Amla in the team, the controversy of alcohol logo arose. Hashim Amla,
who joined the national team for the first time, refused to put the alcohol logo on the
shirt without taking the fear of expulsion into his heart and the South African board had
to give up in front of his strength of faith and strong attitude. He also had to pay a fine,
but he never advertised alcohol.
Poor Performance:
After joining the national team, Hashim Amla was already falling in the eyes of the board due
to controversies. In such a situation, his performance in the first tour was very disappointing
and Hashim Amla was dropped from the team, but Hashim Amla gave faith. Persisted and after
constant hard work made it to the national team once again and never looked back and this
youngster made the entire world a captive of his talent.
Cricket Carrer:
Hashim Amla, who won the honor of captaining South Africa, after the initial failure, played
a game that shattered world cricket records. He scored 28 centuries and 41 half-centuries at
an average of over 46 in 124 Test matches. Scored 9 thousand 282 runs while in 181 ODI matches
with an average of more than 49, he celebrated his abilities by scoring 8 thousand 113 runs with
the help of 27 centuries and 39 half-centuries.
The strength of faith:
The problem of race and color conflicts in South Africa is very old, but Hashim Amla, despite
being a Muslim, became a part of a team where even his fellow religious players were looked
down upon, so the inclusion of a Muslim player is a wonderful example. His career could have
ended before it started over a case of alcohol advertising, but he refused to budge an inch
from his faith that God led him to. Hashim Amla was often seen reciting the Holy Qur'an during
his travels and on the field in his free time. Even after the game, his habit of talking to
women while talking to women made him stand out from others.
Hashim Amla also had to listen to the taunts of the terrorist on the field but this great
player silenced the opponents with his character and now there are reports that the great
batsman is active in preaching religion after his retirement from cricket and we pray to
Allah that May Allah give them strength of faith and more success.
