A remarkable story of talent and confidence beyond formal education.

In one of the videos, Zeeshan asked Shumaila to introduce herself. With impressive poise and confidence, she responded, “My father speaks 14 languages, and I can speak six.

Social media users have been quick to admire Shumaila’s confidence and intelligence. Comments poured in, with one user saying, “This is absolutely brilliant. May Allah always bless her with the best of everything. Ameen.” Another remarked, “Her confidence is the most impressive of all. One doesn’t need to go to school to speak English.”
