The anthem was adopted by the Palestinian Liberation Organization in 1996,[2] in accordance with Article 31 of the Palestinian Declaration of Independence from 1988.[not verified in body] It replaced "Mawtini". It was written by Said Al Muzayin (a.k.a. Fata Al Thawra, "boy of the revolution"), while its music was composed by Egyptian maestro Ali Ismael. It was known as the "anthem of the Palestinian redemption".
The word fidāʾī (Arabic: فدائي; plural: فدائيون fidāʾiyyūn (standard) or فدائيين fidāʾiyyīn (informal), often rendered in English as fedayeen) means "sacrifice" or "one who sacrifices himself" (a literal translation of fidāʾiyyīn might be "martyrs"). The Palestinian fedayeen are militants or guerrillas of a nationalist orientation from among the Palestinian people. Most Palestinians consider the fedayeen to be "freedom fighters".
