Umm Kulthum ( ; ; born, ; see Kunya ) ( December 30, 1898 – February 3, 1975 ) was an Egyptian singer, songwriter, and actress.

Umm Kulthum was born in Tamay ez-Zahayra village in El Senbellawein, Dakahlia Governorate, Ottoman Empire, in Dakahlia, in the Nile Delta, near the Mediterranean Sea.

El Qasabgi introduced Umm Kulthum to the Arabic Theatre Palace, where she would experience her first real public success.

By 1934, Umm Kulthum was one of the most famous singers in Egypt to be chosen as the artist to inaugurate Radio Cairo with her voice on May 31.

Over the second half of the 1930s, two initiatives sealed the fate of Umm Kulthum as the most popular and famous Arab singer: her appearances in musical movies and the live broadcasting of her concerts performed on the first Thursday of each month of her musical season from October to June.

Among the army men trapped were the figures who were going to lead the bloodless revolution of July 23, 1952, prominently Gamal Abdel Nasser, who arguably was a fan of Umm Kulthum and who would later become the president of Egypt.

In addition, Umm Kulthum was a dedicated Egyptian patriot since the time of King Farouk.

Umm Kulthum was also known for her continuous contributions to charity works for the Egyptian military efforts.

A typical Umm Kulthum concert consisted of the performance of two or three songs over a period of three to four hours.

However, Umm Kulthum was not stylistically influenced by opera, and she sang solo most of her career.

Umm Kulthum's musical directions in the 1940s and early 1950s and her mature performing style led this period to becoming popularly known as " the golden age " of Umm Kulthum.

Umm Kulthum had abstained from singing Qasabgi's music since the early 1940s.

It is speculated that this was due in part to the popular failure of the movie Aida, in which Umm Kulthum sings mostly Qasabgi's compositions, including the first part of the opera.
