Several months ago, the nephew of the late artist Abdel Halim Hafez revealed new details regarding the lack of decomposition of Nightingale’s body, during his visit to his tomb.
Street flooded with water
Shabana said: “They spoke to us in the Basateen cemetery and told us that the whole street was flooded, so follow the news of the cemetery.
We went to open our meals from the Dar Al-Iftaa. A fatwa, how do we open and see, and like that, we opened the first opening we found in the world where there is no water.”
Shabana continued his speech by saying to the Egyptian newspaper “Al-Watan”: “We said the best thing is that we get a radar device from the Department of Risk Reduction at the Faculty of Science, Cairo University,
And with an engineer, he measures the entire street and draws like signs that show the layers in the ground that contain water or nothing.”
Rocks prevented water, and the engineer said following measuring the street, “Glory be to God, the place in which Abdel Halim was buried, there are rocks that prevented water a meter and a half.”
And he continued, “The Nightingale’s body was completely away from the water,” explaining that the engineer had recommended them to isolate the cemetery: “So in the future, if the water increased, we said, God knows best these rocks will be tolerated and not fragmented or what.”

And regarding the details of the day the tomb of Abdel Halim Hafez was opened, Shabana said: “We brought a large four-kilo scout for photography, and we brought people to the cemetery, and we came to an imam of a sheikh in the Dandarawi mosque,
We called Abdel Alim, may God have mercy on him, the head of the committee to perpetuate the memory of Abdel Halim, members of the committee and the family sitting on top and they broke the whole cemetery because it remains closed and made with plaster.”
And Shabana, outside the cemetery, heard the words in a loud voice, “God is great, God is great,” when he recited the Qur’an with family members: “And they said, You must go down and see your uncle.
And I looked and found Abdel Halim, his face, his nostrils, and his eyebrows, as if he was sleeping in peace, and I was very happy that I saw him. The last time I saw him, I was 5 and a half years old.”
