Fairouz, the icon of Lebanese singing, entered a temporary state of collapse after receiving the news of the death of her son Ziad Rahbani, according to local Lebanese media.
According to eyewitnesses, a medical team headed to Fairouz's house in Beirut immediately after the news spread, amidst a deep sadness that surrounded the family.
Fairouz had an exceptional relationship with her son Ziad, which was not limited to family ties but extended to a rare artistic partnership that began early in their careers.
Ziad composed the song "Sa'alouni Al Nas" for his mother when he was fifteen years old, during his father Assi Rahbani's illness, at a time when the family was preparing for the play "Al Mahatta".
Over the following decades, Ziad developed a unique and distinct musical voice, composing some of Fairouz's most famous songs such as "Kifak Inta", "Qahwa", "A'udak Ranan", and "Walla Kif", introducing a new style in musical arrangement and artistic vision.
