Malik, along with Styles and Tomlinson, support Manchester United. Īs of 18 August 2013, Malik is engaged to singer Perrie Edwards, of girl group Little Mix. In July 2014, during the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict, Malik tweeted the message "#FreePalestine" to his 13 million Twitter followers, reportedly provoking anger from One Direction fans in Israel. In June 2012, Malik's approach to Islam was criticised by blogger Debbie Schlussel, who accused him of advertising Islam to young fans at the same time, he was criticised, on Twitter, by conservative Muslims, for not taking Islamic doctrine seriously enough. Malik is Muslim, and once affirmed that by tweeting " La ila ha ill lalla ho muhammed door rasoolalah" (declaration of faith, meaning: "There is no God but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah"). He as well as other members of One Direction further notes artists such as Bruno Mars, as a "dream collaborator." Malik is a heavy cigarette smoker in late 2011, he expressed his desire to quit.

Malik has stated that he started taking pride in his appearance after moving schools at the age of twelve. Malik did not fit in at his first two schools due to his mixed heritage.

The audience delivered Zayn’s solo.Malik at the 2014 ARIA Music Awards, Sydney, 26 November 2014 Regardless, in a video from their concert last night, after the bridge of You & I, Harry, Louis, Liam, and Niall stopped singing. Without him the group loses some of its distinctiveness and slowly morphs into four goofy white guys shouting. But he leaves a void of personality, a void of vocal agility. The remaining members of One Direction have only performed a few concerts without Malik, so it’s hard to determine if his subtraction from the group creates an imbalance in the harmonic attack.
A lot.) I think this is the source of a lot of their appeal their voices and the instrumentation, which is usually minimal guitar figures against fluorescent banks of synths, cause their songs feel like a form of glam rock that’s rushing at you in three dimensions. It also makes One Direction songs near-impossible to simulate at karaoke without profound breath and pitch control. It’s an arena rock aesthetic, treating harmonies as if they’re a system of collapsing stars it gives the condensing voices a kind of internal velocity. In most One Direction choruses, five voices of varying integrity collapse into a single, compact chord. His solos, especially on the ballad You & I, could be dazzling, his voice moving with grace through impressive aerial designs, and he contributed body and dimension to the group’s choruses. At one point in This Is Us, while on tour, he is extracted from sleep by songwriter/producer Julian Bunetta to record the bridge of Best Song Ever, into which Malik compressed a tenor and falsetto vocal. He mostly inhabited a silvery, full-bodied tenor, similar to but more sharp and precise than Harry Styles’ smoky warble. He was one of the more accomplished vocalists of the group, exhibiting the widest range.
An enduring image of One Direction is of Malik in the Night Changes video, the soft and intricate cascade of his hair merging with a dense knot of spaghetti. Its styling never quite collapsed into the strange vertical animals emerging from the skulls of Tomlinson or Niall Horan. His hair is also shapely, shimmering and kind of incandescently dark, as if permanently enhanced by a follow spot. These features were identifiable even early in their careers when the other four members appeared to be one elastic teenage face. When I look at the structure of his face I am reminded of a geometric prism, or the interior of a geode. He’s also frankly gorgeous, all sculpted, glossy angles.
