Although the United Arab Republic disintegrated in 1961, Egypt retained the official name and national anthem of the Union until 1971 and until 1979.
Before being adopted as the UAR national anthem, it was a patriotic song made famous by Egypt and the Arab world following the three-party invasion of the Suez Canal Crisis in 1956, when Egypt was invaded by Britain, France, and Israel. Due to its strongly patriotic lyrics evoking national resistance, the song was frequently broadcast in Egypt during the war, sometimes as often as every 10 minutes.
The popularity of this song has led to it being adopted as the national anthem of many countries. It replaced the combined national anthem of the former Egyptian anthem used in Egypt and the Sudan, and the early Egyptian anthem of Egypt and Syria, as well as the anthem of Syria.
The lyrics are written by Salah Jahin and the music is by Al-Taweryaka.
