And its history, Hussein Nazek wrote and composed for it, so he released waves of melodious melodies that flowed between his fingertips for its sake and for the sake of all of Palestine, to combine with the sound, with its ripples, charm and sweetness, the national feelings of the people, so (Abu Ali) was truly a pioneer of the political, patriotic, and nationalistic song, In the Palestinian arena, and our Arab world.

He created - and we might say metaphorically - Hussein Nazek created a wide audience that surrounded him in the Palestinian and Arab circles, in light of his wonderful artistic productions of political song, with a historical dimension, which attracted people and pushed them to memorize those songs and repeat them on most national occasions in stages. Important aspects of modern and contemporary Palestinian history, and even in weddings and sorrows.
Hussein Nazek (Abu Ali), and everyone who worked with him, and under his fingertips, who used to give her orders and produce those beautiful melodies with them, accompanied by patriotic lyrics, deserve all appreciation, so he published songs to take to the stadiums, and to gather the audience, gathered around them.
