Abdul Al Halim Hafez


Abdul Al Halim Hafez was an Egyptian singer. He was born in 1929 in a small village called Alhlwat. His parents died a few months after his birth. He studied in the High Institute of Music.. He began to be a famous star at the time of the revolution of Egypt in 1952. He sang revolutionary songs, so it was said that he was the "Son of Revolution." He suffered from Bilharzia and that prevented him from acting more in Egyptian cinema. He did at least 12 movies in his life. The first movie was "Lhan Alwafa". The last movie was "Abe Fok Alsagra." Because he was a brilliant star there were many rumours around him but I think the strongest rumour in his life and after his death was his marriage to the actress Swad Hasny. Finally, the Arab nation lost the greatest singer in 1977 in London.
