His son Fariq Naik, who is an Islamic scholar, accompanies the preacher as he tours the country for the lectures.

Top officials of the Pakistan government including the Chairman of the Pakistan Prime Minister's Youth Program, Rana Mashhood and Additional Secretary of the Ministry of Religious Affairs, Syed Atta-ur-Rehman received Zakir Naik at the New Islamabad Airport.
