  Little is known about al-Sharaa's personal life, which he is careful not to share with the media. In 2012, Time reported that in one of the meetings of prominent armed groups attended by the leaders of Ahrar al-Sham, Suqour al-Sham, Liwa al-Islam, and other brigades, al-Sharaa wore a mask, refusing to reveal his identity, and was introduced to the attendees by the Front's emirs in Aleppo and Idlib. In addition, al-Sharaa plays basketball.
  
  Al-Sharaa met Latifa al-Droubi while they were both studying at Damascus University. They were married in 2012 and have three children.
