Hussein is survived by his wife, Mahyon Ismail, three children and four grandchildren. His children are scriptwriter Dilla, R&B singer Fairuz and actor Faizal.

Faizal told Bernama that family members rushed to the hospital after being informed that the veteran actor was in critical condition at 5.30am.

The body was brought to the family home in Taman Gombak Setia here before being laid to rest at the Taman Ibu Kota Muslim cemetery in Setapak after Zuhur prayers.
