In this post, I would like to share an article that announced a new festival of music and singing in honor of one of the greatest Arab singers ever: Umm Kulthum (\u0623\u0645 \u0643\u0644\u062b\u0648\u0645). Along with <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/arabic\/fairouz-and-fall-%D9%81%D9%8E%D9%8A%D8%B1%D9%88%D8%B2-%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AE%D9%8E%D8%B1%D9%8A%D9%81\/\">Fairouz<\/a> from Lebanon, Umm Koulthoum\u2019s unique musical talent, in her voice and acting, has captured the hearts and minds of many in Egypt, the Arab world and beyond. I am confident that many of you cherish her music and find comfort in her beautiful charming voice.She was a renowned Egyptian patriot and fervently supported one of Egypt\u2019s finest and most charismatic leaders of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century President Gamal Abdel Nasser through her music, by donating large chunks of her profits for the Egyptian military efforts. It is no surprise that many in the Arab world and beyond consider her as the Kawkab Al-Sharq (\u0643\u0648\u0643\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0631\u0642) (Star of the East) and the Lady of Arabic Singing (\u0633\u064a\u062f\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u063a\u0646\u0627\u0621 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a). Until this very day and around 45 years after her death, Umm Kulthum is still considered and regarded as the greatest female artist and performer in Arabic music history.<\/p>\n<p>I am sharing this article from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naharnet.com\/stories\/ar\/73369\">Naharnet<\/a>, an Arabic newspaper based in Lebanon that covers different economic, political and cultural developments in Lebanon, the Middle East, North Africa and beyond. After presenting this article, I will pose some questions for you to answer. It is an exercise that allows you to reflect on the material you have read. Also, I have added a YouTube video of one of Umm Kulthum\u2019s most musical masterpieces called Enta Omri (\u0625\u0646\u062a \u0639\u0645\u0631\u064a), with English subtitles. I will give you all some time to work on your answers and then I will post the answers to the questions and the translation of key words in the article.<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\"><strong>\u0645\u0647\u0631\u062c\u0627\u0646 \u0623\u0645 \u0643\u0644\u062b\u0648\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0648\u0644 \u0644\u0644\u0645\u0648\u0633\u064a\u0642\u0649 \u0648\u0627\u0644\u063a\u0646\u0627\u0621 \u064a\u0646\u0637\u0644\u0642 \u0627\u0644\u0625\u062b\u0646\u064a\u0646<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"right\">\n<p dir=\"RTL\"><strong>\u0627\u0644\u0645\u0646\u0635\u0648\u0631\u0629<\/strong><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>\u064a\u0642\u064a\u0645 \u0625\u0642\u0644\u064a\u0645 \u0634\u0631\u0642 \u0627\u0644\u062f\u0644\u062a\u0627 \u0627\u0644\u062b\u0642\u0627\u0641\u064a \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0627\u0628\u0639 \u0644\u0644\u0647\u064a\u0626\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0627\u0645\u0629 \u0644\u0642\u0635\u0648\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u062b\u0642\u0627\u0641\u0629 \u0641\u064a \u0645\u0635\u0631\u060c \u0627\u0644\u0627\u062b\u0646\u064a\u0646 \u0645\u0647\u0631\u062c\u0627\u0646 \u0623\u0645 \u0643\u0644\u062b\u0648\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0648\u0644 \u0644\u0644\u0645\u0648\u0633\u064a\u0642\u0649 \u0648\u0627\u0644\u063a\u0646\u0627\u0621 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0645\u0633\u0631\u062d \u0642\u0635\u0631 \u062b\u0642\u0627\u0641\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0646\u0635\u0648\u0631\u0629.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"RTL\">\u0648\u064a\u0628\u062f\u0623 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0647\u0631\u062c\u0627\u0646 \u0628\u0639\u062f \u063a\u062f \u0628\u0627\u0641\u062a\u062a\u0627\u062d \u0645\u0639\u0631\u0636 \u0635\u0648\u0631 \u0648\u0645\u0642\u062a\u0646\u064a\u0627\u062a \u0633\u064a\u062f\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u063a\u0646\u0627\u0621 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a \u0628\u0627\u0644\u062a\u0639\u0627\u0648\u0646 \u0645\u0639 \u0645\u062a\u062d\u0641 \u0623\u0645 \u0643\u0644\u062b\u0648\u0645 \u064a\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0645\u062d\u0627\u0636\u0631\u0629 \u0639\u0646 \u062d\u064a\u0627\u062a\u0647\u0627\u060c \u0643\u0645\u0627 \u062a\u0642\u062f\u0645 \u0641\u0631\u0642\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0646\u0635\u0648\u0631\u0629 \u0644\u0644\u0645\u0648\u0633\u064a\u0642\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a\u0629 \u0628\u0631\u0646\u0627\u0645\u062c\u0627 \u062d\u0627\u0641\u0644\u0627 \u0645\u0646 \u0623\u0639\u0645\u0627\u0644 \u0633\u064a\u062f\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u063a\u0646\u0627\u0621 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a \u062a\u0634\u0627\u0631\u0643 \u0641\u064a\u0647 \u0641\u0631\u0642\u0629 &#8220;\u0631\u0628\u0627\u0639\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0646\u063a\u0645&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"RTL\">\u0648\u064a\u0642\u062f\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0643\u0627\u062a\u0628 \u0628\u0634\u064a\u0631 \u0639\u064a\u0627\u062f \u0627\u0644\u062b\u0644\u0627\u062b\u0627\u0621 26 \u0634\u0628\u0627\u0637\u060c \u0645\u062d\u0627\u0636\u0631\u0629 \u0639\u0646 \u0645\u0634\u0648\u0627\u0631 \u0633\u064a\u062f\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u063a\u0646\u0627\u0621 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u0649 \u0625\u0636\u0627\u0641\u0629 \u0625\u0644\u0649 \u062a\u062d\u0644\u064a\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0641\u0642\u0631\u0627\u062a \u0627\u0644\u0641\u0646\u064a\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0649 \u062a\u0642\u062f\u0645\u0647\u0627 \u0641\u0631\u0642\u0629 \u0628\u0646\u0647\u0627 \u0644\u0644\u0645\u0648\u0633\u064a\u0642\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a\u0629.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"RTL\">\u0648\u064a\u062e\u062a\u062a\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0647\u0631\u062c\u0627\u0646 \u064a\u0648\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u062b\u0644\u0627\u062b\u0627\u0621 \u0628\u0645\u062d\u0627\u0636\u0631\u0629 \u0639\u0646 \u0623\u0647\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0648\u062b\u0627\u0626\u0642 \u0627\u0644\u0646\u0627\u062f\u0631\u0629 \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0645\u0648\u0627\u0642\u0641 \u0648\u0628\u0639\u0636 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0641\u0644\u0627\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0648\u062b\u0627\u0626\u0642\u064a\u0629 \u0639\u0646 \u062d\u064a\u0627\u0629 \u0623\u0645 \u0643\u0644\u062b\u0648\u0645 \u064a\u0644\u0642\u064a\u0647\u0627 \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0627\u0639\u0631 \u0623\u062d\u0645\u062f \u0639\u0646\u062a\u0631 \u0645\u0635\u0637\u0641\u0649\u060c \u0625\u0636\u0627\u0641\u0629 \u0625\u0644\u0649 \u0639\u0631\u0636 \u0641\u0646\u064a \u0644\u0641\u0631\u0642\u0629 \u0645\u062d\u0645\u062f \u0639\u0628\u062f \u0627\u0644\u0648\u0647\u0627\u0628 \u0644\u0644\u0645\u0648\u0633\u064a\u0642\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0627\u0628\u0639\u0629 \u0644\u0641\u0631\u0639 \u062b\u0642\u0627\u0641\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0631\u0642\u064a\u0629 \u062a\u0642\u062f\u0645 \u0641\u064a\u0647 \u0628\u0627\u0642\u0629 \u0645\u0646 \u0623\u062c\u0645\u0644 \u0623\u063a\u0627\u0646\u0649 \u0623\u0645 \u0643\u0644\u062b\u0648\u0645.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Questions: <\/span><\/p>\n<p>1. \u00a0What event did the festival commence with?<\/p>\n<p>2.
