Halima Cissé and Abdelkader Arby, together with their children Mohammed VI, Elhadji, Oumar, Bah, Kadidia, Fatouma, Hawa, Adama, and Oumou, marked a special milestone as the Arby nonuplets celebrated their fourth birthday. Guinness World Records recently shared a new photo of the nine siblings, capturing the joyous occasion. The four boys and five girls were pictured alongside their parents, Halima Cissé and Abdelkader Arby.
In an Instagram post on Sunday, May 4, the siblings were seen posing together with their older sister Souda, 6. These nonuplets are a remarkable case, being the first known surviving set of nine children born at once, earning them the Guinness World Record for “the most children delivered at a single birth to survive.” Their birth took place in Morocco on May 4, 2021.
The family shared their gratitude for the children’s health and growth, with Halima expressing pride in their development as they turned four. The celebration was marked in a grandiose manner, acknowledging the unique nature of their record-breaking status.
The images shared by Guinness World Records showcase the siblings in various groupings, highlighting the bond and joy within the family. The parents, Halima and Abdelkader, are beaming with pride in one of the photos, capturing the love and happiness they share with their remarkable children.
The journey of the nonuplets, born prematurely via caesarean section and requiring specialized care, has been a testament to the dedication and resilience of the family. Despite the challenges, Halima and Abdelkader have embraced the blessings of their nine children, viewing them as a divine gift.
As the family continues to celebrate milestones and cherish moments together, their story serves as a source of inspiration and wonder, reflecting the extraordinary journey of the world’s first surviving nonuplets.
