Biography

Abduh al-Suruji was the Cairo singer Hafiz Ahmad Hasan.

Widad’s cast catalogue credits his singing in Umm Kulthum’s 1936 film; his biographical entry also records work with Badia Masabni. That entry contradicts its own structured birth and death dates, so additional date precision is held pending independent documentation.
