    00:44 Lebanese singer Fairuz
    12:31 Egyptian singer Abdel Halim Hafez
    23:09 Algerian singer Warda
    35:55 Egyptian singer Nagat El Saghira
    Secret love, dramatic performances and breakups are the inspirations for these four song stories from the Middle East, each telling a unique tale.
    Lebanese musical icon Fairuz delivered a show-stopping performance in Beirut while her composer husband lay gravely ill.
    The romantic themes of Egyptian singer Abdel Halim Hafez’s last song risked offending conservative religious leaders.
    Algerian diva Warda al-Jazairia had a very public divorce, immortalising her separation in song.
    And Egyptian singer Nagat El Saghira’s most famous song almost never got made.
    This four-song tour of the region sheds light and offers new insights into Arab musical achievements, aspirations, people and traditions.

    Thank you immensely for this documentary. As an enthusiast of Arabic music and a non-Arabic speaker, I deeply appreciate the inclusion of English subtitles. I hope that more documentaries of this nature will be produced in the future, catering to a wider audience. Being a devoted fan of Warda, the impact of the "Bawadaak" song uniquely resonated with me after watching this. May Allah shower His mercy upon them and us. Ameen.

    For someone else's lips are dripping with honey,
    and her palate is smoother than olive oil,
    but eventually it becomes bitter like wormwood
    and sharp as a double - edged sword.

      No it is NOT. Only those fundamentalists see it that way. Muslim philosophers and music theorists like Al Kindi, Ziryab and Ishaq al-Mawsili , just to name a few, were the pioneers in music development. The Mid-Eastern oud (which was improved under Islamic rules) predates the guitar by millennia, and the guitar development was influenced by the Oud. By the way, if you must know, God/Allah himself is a musician, and a perfect one. You hear his melodies once you open your eyes in the morning! So how can he forbit it.?!

      @@aryanrajput2778 The whole world, huh? This is the influence of the Dajjal system that some CIA agents get the front page of the newspaper. The journalists like to make money, and so they say, "If it bleeds, it leads." No religion gets demonized the way mine does. Main aap ke liye du'a karoonga taake aap Musulman ban sakte hain. Bhagwan kare, aap ek din Islam kabool karenge. If you don't want to be Muslim, that's your loss. Inshallah, you can be more tolerant of us. I wish Congress party were more honest, or Aam Admi Party could do something with that election they won in Delhi a few years ago and expand to be some national kind of force; maybe then BJP would not have so much power in this year of 2022. It's sad how Hindutva ideology has taken over my beloved Hindustan, rather tragic. I love India very, very much, but maybe my parents were right to immigrate to Amreeka. Sometimes, however, I wish I could live in Bihar like they did... even in Modi's India. Nevertheless, the way things are going, I am afraid you people will do all those things in that list that you made, but it was not entirely your fault... it is ultimately a test from Allah. Also, those Arabs decided to support you guys because they cared about Laxmi devi more than their own Muslim brothers. Oh, well. That's life... Namaste.
