You forgot to add body tag ,Try This :

label1 = new JLabel();
    label1.setText("<html><body>Welcome ,<strong> Hussein</strong></body></html>");

Why are you mixing html and java. tag is in html. This is how you do in java

label = new JLabel("A label");
label.setFont(new Font("Serif", Font.BOLD, 14));

Your HTML syntax is bad, since your String does not start with the html DOM root.

Try something in the lines of:

label1.setText("<html>Welcome <strong>Hussein</strong>.</html>");
