Yasser Al-Qahtani

Yasser Al-Qahtani is a Saudi Arabian former professional footballer who played as a forward for Al-Qadsiah and Al-Hilal and captained the Saudi Arabia national team. ¹ He won 108 caps and scored 42 goals, and was named Asian Footballer of the Year in 2007. ¹ Neither article read for this record states his religion, and Wikidata carries no religion value for him, so his data record leaves his faith as unknown. ¹²³

Al-Qahtani was born on 10 October 1982; the English article and Wikidata give his birthplace as Al Khobar, while the Arabic article's infobox gives Riyadh, a discrepancy recorded in his data record. ¹²³ The Arabic article describes his beginnings in neighbourhood teams and Ramadan tournaments in the Eastern Province before he joined Al-Qadsiah. ² He moved to Al-Hilal in 2005, spent the 2011–2012 season on loan at Al Ain in the Emirates, and retired in 2018. ¹

Al-Qahtani played at the 2006 World Cup and captained Saudi Arabia to the final of the 2007 AFC Asian Cup as one of the tournament's top scorers, winning the Asian Footballer of the Year award for 2007. ¹ He went on trial at Manchester City that December. ¹ He finished his international career with 108 caps and 42 goals. ¹

The sources read for this record do not state Al-Qahtani's religion. In the English article the word "Islamic" appears only in the name of the 2005 Islamic Solidarity Games, a tournament at which he won gold, and in the medalist categories for those Games — competition names, not statements about a person. ¹ The Arabic article's only religion-adjacent detail is the Ramadan youth tournaments of his beginnings, which name no school. ² Wikidata carries no religion value for him. ³ Saudi Arabia's Hanbali tradition is a national milieu rather than a personal attestation, so the data record leaves his faith as unknown.
