Assala's Damascus concert faces price and gender mixing criticism

In Syria, mosque preachers criticized the Asalah Nassar concert held in Damascus for its content, which is considered morally unacceptable, and for its high cost ranging between $50 and $800. Many saw this as diverting funds away from the poor and displaced, hampering their support. They also objected to the organization of singing events where women and men mingle, viewing such gatherings as contradicting religious principles and as an unacceptable progressive display amid the difficult economic circumstances Syria is experiencing. They condemned the honoring of Asalah, despite her support for the Syrian revolution, believing that the priorities should be supporting the families of the victims and restoring rights, not celebrating musical concerts. They emphasized that true victory lies in the return of the displaced and in achieving justice.
