The opening as it read in 2025
Nuh Ibrahim (Arabic: نوح ابراهيم ) (1913 - 28 October 1938), sometimes referred to as "the popular poet of the 1936 revolution " and "student of Qassam ", was a Palestinian folk poet , a singer, a composer , and a fighter. He was born in Haifa in British Mandate Palestine. He started writing poetry at an early age. Nuh Ibrahim expressed the conscience of his people in a smooth tone, with an easy, lyrical, understandable language, approaching ordinary speech, showing his love of the nation, calling for its defense, and urging people to revolt. His poetry represented the beginning of the golden age of Palestinian folk poetry, and he carried with his contemporaries among the popular poets such as: Farhan Salam, Abu Saeed Al-Hattini and Saud Al-Asadi the concern of Palestinian society, and its revolutionary resistance against the British occupation and the Zionist settlement during the 1936-1939 Arab revolt in Palestine . Nuh Ibrahim composed a large number of popular songs and poems all around Palestinian and Arab national and political issues and events during that period. Until today people sing some of his songs. الموسوعة الفلسطينية، المجلد الرابع، الطبعة الأولى، دمشق 1984، صفحة 508.
