Abrar-ul-Haq (Urdu/Punjabi: ابرار الحق) (Abrar is also spelled as Ibrar) is a Pakistani pop, bhangra and folk singer. On his first album "Billo De Ghar" his name appears as simply "Abrar". His best-known work is the song "Billo De Ghar".

His most popular songs are in Punjabi language, although, he has sung almost equal number of Urdu songs which are parts of all of his albums. His [[Urdu]] language songs have not gained that kind of popularity which has been earned by his Punjabi work. It is partly because of the vast difference of his style in these two languages. His most Punjabi songs are upbeat, and lyrics are very down to earth representing [[Pakistan]]i culture with a humorous touch and clever sarcasm. On the other hand his Urdu music is mostly sad, romantic and patriotic. In some of his Urdu songs, he has copied some Urdu classics of Pakistani music. Although, beat is an essential part of Abrar's music but he choses his melodies very carefully and always tries to keep them consistent with the beat. He writes most of his songs, however, he often borrows poetry from [[Sufi]] poets of [[Punjab (Pakistan)|Punjab]] which he cleverly mixes up in his humours songs. == Pioneer == Abrar-ul-Haq is argu
