People behind the works
Omar Halabi
Damascus
Story & context
The reviewed account names him for added words in the developed Ya Mal al-Sham with Suhail Arafa. His contribution belongs to specific passages and versions, rather than a blanket credit for all circulating lyrics.
What remains open?
This entry covers the linked work, not a full biography or catalogue. Credits still need comparison with original release documentation.

Sources retain their original language. The editing date does not mean every link was rechecked or the earliest recording found.
How to read this archive
We distinguish words, melody, performance and arrangement. A source supports a specific claim; a missing credit does not prove historical anonymity. Open questions remain visible in each entry, ready for new testimony or recordings.
These paths describe circulation and cultural association, not exclusive origins or ownership. The same entry may belong to several regions.
