    Social media accounts and websites have posted a video of Fairuz and two photos of the late Ziad Rahbani in the wrong context. We present the facts. 

    First: A video clip of Fairuz , claiming to be a recent one, mourning her son, Ziad Rahbani. 

    One source of the claim

    Kashif verified the video clip via “Google Images” tool, and found that it is old and the claim is misleading. “Ghayboun” YouTube channel posted it on 5 March 2013, and stated that it dates back to “Good Friday at the Balamand Monastery” in 1992. 

    The video was posted on “Ghayboun” YouTube channel on 5 March 2013.

    Second: A photo of the late Ziad Rahbani with a doctor, claiming it’s the last photo of him in the hospital before his death. 

    One source of the claim

    The doctor shown in the photo, Muhammad Qadih, told An-Nahar that the photo dates back to about four years ago, during one of Rahbani’s frequent visits to the hospital. Qadih said: “I posted the photo on my personal account as an expression of… 

    About my great love for him and the magnitude of the loss we feel with his passing. I used to meet him often during the periods when he was admitted to the hospital.

    Third: A photo of Ziad Rahbani with a woman, claiming that she is his ex-wife, Dalal Karam. 

    One source of the claim

    The Lebanese newspaper, As-Safir, published the circulated photo in its archive, claiming that it shows Salma Al-Musfi and Ziad Rahbani, in a 2001 report.

    Singer Salma Al-Masfi also posted a similar image as her Instagram profile picture, and went live on Thawra TV on 28 July 2025, to talk about the late Ziad Rahbani.

    Thawra TV reported that Al-Masfi began her collaboration with the late Ziad Rahbani in 1986, participating with her voice in the choir in many of his famous works, in addition to his collaborations with other artists. 

    Ziad Rahbani passed away on Saturday morning, 26 July 2025, at the age of 69, after a long battle with liver cirrhosis. Rahbani was buried on 28 July in a funeral procession attended by a large crowd, including his mother, Fairuz, who appeared in public for the first time in years.
