Assala Sparks Controversy with a Tweet About Integrity – Who Is She Referring To? - Jordan News
"Integrity is not divisible. An honest person does not deceive, betray, lie, exploit, or oppress – and the opposite is also true."
Fans quickly flooded the comments section, with many speculating that her post was directed at her ex-husband, Tarek Al-Arian . This comes just over five days after Tarek issued a statement regarding the controversy surrounding the song "60 Daqiqa Hayat" , which was a past collaboration between him and Assala.
Supporters expressed their unwavering backing for Assala, with one fan commenting:
"Don't worry! Your voice is still here, and you continue to release amazing albums. As for your old songs, we already have them saved on our phones – we don't need YouTube!"
Another wrote:
"You are absolutely right. Integrity is an essential value that cannot be divided. A truly honest person embodies noble qualities such as truthfulness, justice, and loyalty. Integrity is not only about major matters but also the small details."
A third admirer added:
"You will always be one of the greatest Arab singers, an iconic Syrian artist, and the voice behind legendary hits like 'Mab'aash Ana,' 'Asfa,' 'Samahtek Ktir,' 'Ya Majnoun,' and 'Yismahuli El Kol.' You can still create dozens of hit albums!"
Meanwhile, in a clarification statement , Tarek Al-Arian confirmed two days ago that YouTube had ruled in his favor regarding the production, publishing, and distribution rights of "60 Daqiqa Hayat" . After presenting official documents supporting his claim, the platform automatically removed the song from Assala's channel.
His statement read:
"The real reason behind the removal of '60 Daqiqa Hayat' from YouTube was my submission of official documents proving my rights to its publishing and distribution. The deletion was carried out directly from the artist Assala's account."

'I will be singing my songs on stage for the first time, and I'm very excited about it,' she told ET Bil Arabi. There is a lot of excitement and good feelings, but there is also some worry. It's certain that the nerves will go away as soon as I walk on stage and sing the first two words. Assala and Bessan Ismail meet. Bessan Ismail said this about her meeting with Assala: "I love her very much. I've said for a long time that she was my life model, and I still love her." It made me love her even more when I met her. She's a wonderful person, and I love her. I wish I could be like her."

For example, "Let's mourn my condition, my beautiful one, the fears and the night's whispers." The words also ask a profound question: "Why did you leave me instead of the poisonous blood that runs through me?" A big studio in Lebanon was used to film the video clip for "Alash" with director Abdel Wahab Khatib in charge. The visuals of the work were also made to match the sad and emotional mood of the song, which gave the release a unique artistic value. This song is Bisan Ismail and Fouad Junaid's second work together after the huge success of their first song, "Khattiya," which went viral on social media and was at the top of the popular lists.

Mohamed Ramadan under fire after attending Lara Trump invitation
ALBAWABA - Egyptian star Mohamed Ramadan recently sparked outrage among his fans after attending Mrs. Lara Trump's invitation to represent Arab-African music. He took to his official socials and wrote, "Glad to be invited by Mrs. Lara Trump and for her appreciation of my African continent, this is also an appreciation for Arab-African music. Something powerful is coming inshallah." After posting the pictures in question, Ramadan was subjected to political backlash from Egyptian and Arab fans due to the Trump family's ties with Israel and the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023, which resulted in the killing of more than 60,000 Palestinians. Many stated that the star shouldn't have accepted the invitation or called for an end to the Gaza war during his visit. A fan wrote, "Support Palestine instead of supporting people who have no heart and mercy. Allah suffices me, and He is the best disposer of affairs." "Shame on you! Is this the same Trump family who is allowing the ongoing genocide in Gaza?" On the contrary, several of Mohamed Ramadan's fans supported the artist, further showering him with positive comments on Insatgram and X (formerly known as Twitter) for reaching this milestone. Mohamed Ramadan didn't reveal what's upcoming, leaving fans curious about his future endeavors. However, according to Sky News Arabia, Ramadan is currently in the US to reportedly film music videos for his upcoming songs.

Sayegh Group backs Palestinian historical drama 'Palestine 36'
Sayegh Group proudly announces its financial support for the Palestinian historical film Palestine 36, directed by internationally acclaimed filmmaker Annemarie Jacir. Under the patronage of Chairman Mr. Michael Sayegh and Roya Media Group CEO Mr. Fares Sayegh, this backing reaffirms the Group's longstanding commitment to the Palestinian cause and cultural preservation. Palestine 36 is a powerful drama set during the 1936 Palestinian revolt, an uprising led by farmers against British colonial rule. Taking place on the outskirts of Jerusalem, the film tells an epic story of resistance that was ultimately crushed by 20,000 British soldiers. The film marks the latest work by Jacir, a leading voice in Palestinian and international cinema. 'We are honored to support a cultural work that gives voice to the Palestinian struggle through the powerful medium of film,' said Mr. Michael Sayegh. 'This project is not just a film, it is a cultural testament to the resilience, identity, and history of the Palestinian people. We believe in the role of cinema as a force for dialogue and change.' Originally planned to be filmed in Palestine in October 2023, production was relocated to Jordan due to escalating violence and instability in the region. The cast includes a stellar lineup of Arab and international talent, such as Dhafer L'Abidine, Hiam Abbass, and Academy Award winner Jeremy Irons. Annemarie Jacir is widely recognized as a pioneer of Arab cinema. Her films have premiered at Cannes, Berlin, Venice, Toronto, and other major international festivals. She was the first Palestinian female director to make a feature film, Salt of This Sea, which was also her second film to premiere at Cannes. All three of her feature films have been Palestine's official entries to the Academy Awards. Her award-winning film When I Saw You received the Best Asian Film prize at the Berlin International Film Festival, earning Jordan its first major international award. Wajib, another standout work, garnered 36 international awards, including honors at Mar del Plata, Dubai, and London film festivals. Palestine 36 promises to be another landmark in Jacir's career and is highly anticipated by audiences and critics worldwide. Roya TV will play a strategic role in supporting the film through an integrated media campaign encompassing public relations, marketing, and broadcasting. The network will provide extensive media coverage, including exclusive interviews with the cast and crew, behind-the-scenes footage, and promotional segments during peak viewing hours to maximize outreach. Roya is also coordinating with various media outlets to amplify coverage of the film's production and distribution phases. This collaboration aims to raise global awareness of the Palestinian cause and highlight its historical narrative through this powerful cinematic work. With this contribution, Sayegh Group continues its mission to uplift Palestinian narratives, promote cultural expression, and support artistic excellence from the region. Palestine 36 stands as a powerful addition to Palestinian cinema and a vital retelling of history that deserves international attention.
