Growing up with her mother in Karachi, singing and music became her passion but during her childhood, her mother Noor Jehan refused to allow her to undergo training in music.[1]
In the early 1990s, after having decided to make music her profession, she commenced formal education in music under Ghulam Mohammed, her mother's Ustad (teacher). She said in an interview, "Learning at that age wasn't an easy game but I had made up my mind to keep on learning as learning never ends".[5] Zil-e-Huma usually used to sing her mother's super-hit film songs on Pakistan Television.[1][2]

At an early age, she married a jeweler, Aqeel Butt, and settled down to a married life. She has four sons including Ahmed Ali Butt.[6][7] She eventually divorced her husband and decided to pursue a musical career.[1]
Illness and death
Huma died on 16 May 2014 at a Lahore hospital from end-stage kidney disease (chronic kidney failure) and diabetes mellitus; she was 69 years old. A few days ago, doctors had amputated her leg as she was diabetic for some years.[2][8]
