On March 30, 1977, the Nightingale Abdel Halim Hafez passed away, and on the second day of March 31, the front pages of the Egyptian newspapers were covered in black, mourning the departure of one of Egypt’s most important singers throughout history, the artist. Abdel Halim HafezPictures of the majestic funeral filled the front pages of newspapers with farewell headlines: “The masses bid farewell with their hearts Abdel Halim Hafez… The flag of Egypt embraces the body of its late son… Citizens repeat: Abdel Halim Habib Al Million.”
In Al-Akhbar newspaper; A news article was published under the title “The Death of Abdel Halim Hafez,” in which I recounted the scenes of the last days of his life, whose last lines were written in London following he suffered severe bleeding at half past four in the followingnoon on the day of his death. The doctors of Kings College Hospital made a great effort in an attempt to save his life, but he became Muslim. Spirit at ten o’clock on the same day?
In another piece of news, it came under “Abdul Halim died following the disease remained within him for more than twenty years…his mother died at the same moment he came to life…and his father died months following his birth.”
Prior to his death, the doctors tried to help him swallow a balloon in order to stop the bleeding and prevent his blood from leaking out, which resulted from scratches in the endoscope that reaches the intestines inside, but he passed away before he swallowed the balloon, and this funeral is considered one of the largest funerals that took place. In this country, the funeral of the brown nightingale took place, and more than 250,000 people walked in his funeral.
