This season, the judging panel consists of superstars Ahlam, Mohamed Hamaki, Samira Said, and Ragheb Alama.

Mohamed fired up the first episode of The Voice with his sudden behavior towards Lebanese contestant Yaman Al-Hajj, which took place after the judges squabbled over who will have her on their team after she blew them away with her amazing talent.
