"A year goes by and a new one comes with hope. May 2026 be lighter on our hearts and bring us closer to every dream that was delayed, a year full of success, peace of mind, and heartfelt laughter always present. Happy New Year to you all, and may the coming days be better for all of us."

At the same time, Hakim sparked controversy after mentioning his potential retirement from singing by the end of 2025, a thought that has been on his mind for some time. He said:

Hakim clarified that his thoughts about retirement are not due to frustration with the music industry, adding:
"Nothing in art bothers me at all. Art is my profession, I loved working in it and being in this career since I was young. Thank God, people loved me, and my singing reached their hearts. I’m happy with their love for me. Art is delightful and it brought me closer to the hearts of people."

Through these statements, Hakim reaffirmed his love for his profession and music, while leaving the door open for a potential retirement after a long and successful career, sparking curiosity among fans about his final decision.
