TikTok star Zulqarnain Sikandar recently joined his wife Kanwal Aftab on her podcast, where they discussed various aspects of their lives, including marriage, YouTube, and TikTok. One of the notable topics covered was Sikandar’s experience with a major financial setback.
Sikandar shared that upon the recommendation of a friend who was successful in trading, he and his brothers decided to try their hand at trading as well. Despite Kanwal’s reservations about trading, Sikandar proceeded with the investment, trusting his friend’s advice. Unfortunately, they faced an initial loss of Rs3.1 million.

When the first loss occurred, Sikandar’s elder brother opted out of further investment, and Kanwal expressed her frustration. Despite informing his friend about the loss, Sikandar was encouraged to invest more, with promises of potential profits in the millions.
Driven by greed, Sikandar asked Kanwal for Rs3 million, but she refused, fearing further losses. Undeterred, he invested all his remaining funds and convinced his younger brother to do the same.
During a trip to perform Umrah, Sikandar received the devastating news that they had lost all their money, totaling Rs20 million. Feeling overwhelmed, Sikandar prayed in Madina, seeking guidance and strength to resist the temptation of trading, acknowledging that he could not endure any more financial losses and hardships.
