Israeli singer Inbal Bibi, who has been increasingly open about her religious journey in recent years, has taken a significant step towards a religious lifestyle by resigning from her job. Bibi announced on Sunday that her last day of work, which required her to work on Saturdays, was that day. She explained that she resigned this month specifically to be able to observe the Sabbath according to Halakha (Jewish law).

The 31-year-old singer, who grew up in a secular home, shared this news during an Instagram Q&A session when asked if she and her husband, former "Big Brother" contestant Roi Kornblum, observe Shabbat. Bibi's decision follows her ongoing spiritual growth and embrace of faith and tradition. Recently, she shared videos of herself wearing a head covering for the first time, expressing her emotional connection to this practice.

Bibi and Kornblum were married in August in Jerusalem. This latest step comes just two and a half months after their wedding, as Bibi continues to adopt religious observances that fulfill her spiritually.
