Ibrahim Shafiq was a singer, composer and teacher, dated 1896–1966 in Zain Nassar’s research, which identifies theatre compositions in 1920.

Muhammad Rushdi recalls his music institute; Opera conference research documents Samiha al-Qurshi’s qanun studies with him.

AMAR identifies an Odeon recording, while the Iraqi national-library catalogue attributes Turathuna al-musiqi volumes to him. Exact life days and recording chronology need further documents.
