Abderrazak Hamdallah is a Moroccan striker born in Safi on 17 December 1990 who plays for Al-Taawoun in the Saudi Pro League.

Hamdallah was born in Safi, the youngest of seven children. The English article quotes him recalling that he began playing football in the streets of Safi, joined a town club as a teenager and played almost every day after school, encouraged by his older brother. He received his first football formation at Nejm Shabab Safi before moving to Olympic Club de Safi, the city's first club. ^{1 2}

Hamdallah's professional career began with Olympic Safi in the 2010–11 Botola. In 2011–12 he scored 15 league goals, and in March 2013, with another 15 goals scored, he moved to Aalesund in Norway in a transfer worth about one million dollars. After a season in Norway he joined Guangzhou R&F in China, then El Jaish in Qatar in 2015, winning the 2016 Qatar Cup and finishing as the Qatar Stars League's top scorer for 2015–16 with 21 goals; he then joined Al-Rayyan in 2017. ^{1 2}

At Al-Nassr, whom he joined in 2018, he won the 2018–19 Saudi Pro League, scoring 34 league goals, and set a King Cup record with 14 goals in five matches; across all competitions he was the world's leading goalscorer of the 2019 calendar year. He moved to Al-Ittihad in 2021, winning a second league title in 2022–23 and a third Saudi scoring title, and joined Al Shabab in July 2024, finishing his first season there as the club's top scorer with 21 league goals, which took his Saudi Pro League tally to 150. In July 2025 he joined Al Hilal on a short loan made only for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, appearing as a substitute in the quarter-final against Fluminense, then returned to Al Shabab. In June 2026 he signed a one-year deal with Al-Taawoun and scored his first goal for the club on 19 August 2026. ¹

Hamdallah made his senior debut for Morocco on 29 February 2012 against Burkina Faso and represented his country at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations. He announced his retirement from international football in November 2019 but returned for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. He won the 2025 FIFA Arab Cup with Morocco and, according to the article's lead, retired from international duty the day after the final. ¹

The English article's personal-life section describes Hamdallah as a practicing Muslim who has been seen many times performing Umrah. On 6 February 2022 he built a house for the parents of Rayan Aourram, the child who died in a well in Morocco, and called on other public figures to donate; in September 2023 he donated blood with his national teammates for the victims of the Marrakesh–Safi earthquake. In October 2022 his lawyer announced that he had won his legal case against his former club Al-Nassr. None of these reports names a school or affiliation for him. ¹

The sources describe Hamdallah's public practice but name no affiliation or school for him, and Wikidata carries no religion value. The museum therefore records his affiliation as unknown; see the faith note in his data record. ^{1 3}
