Mother of Believers' Recruiter of Human Bombs

A woman suspected of recruiting more than 80 female suicide bombers has been arrested, the Iraqi military said today.
The woman, who was identified as Samira Ahmed Jassim or by her nickname 'Umm al-Mumineen,' ('the mother of believers') was shown confessing in a video played for reporters at a press conference in Baghdad.
Dressed in an all-encompassing black Islamic robe, she described how she would persuade the women to be bombers, then escort them to an orchard for insurgent training and finally pick them up and lead them to their targets.

The mother of all believers: Samira Ahmed Jassim, pictured in a detention facility in Baghdad yesterday, has been arrested on suspicion of recruiting 80 female suicide bombers
She said she was acting on behalf of insurgents based in the volatile Diyala province, north of Baghdad.
Iraqi military spokesman Maj. Gen. Qassim al-Moussawi said the suspect had recruited more than 80 women willing to carry out attacks and had admitted masterminding 28 bombings in different areas.
The number of bombings carried out by women has spiked even as overall violence has declined, and U.S. commanders have warned insurgents are actively trying to find more recruits.
The use of female suicide bombers is part of a shift in insurgent tactics to avoid detection at U.S.-Iraqi military checkpoints that have become ubiquitous in Iraq as part of increased security measures.
Iraqi women often are allowed to pass through male-guarded checkpoints without being searched, and they traditionally wear flowing black robes that make it easier to hide explosives belts.

In case you haven't read the news lately the only people these female suicide bombers have killed in the last few days are Iraqi Shites - women and children- three such attacks in the last week; one went into a refreashment tent and blew herself up, where were the Americans and collaberators in this attack?

Due to only a small number of people, the one who was actually ruling lost his position. There was not 94% or 95% (of votes) which is what we are accustomed to in our country, but 99%, (yes) 99%. If Allaah had presented himself to the people as a candidate he would not have been able to take this amount… we welcome Israel for what it has accomplished…"

It did not matter whether he knew who the individual was and that is not the point I was making. The identity of the individual is irrelevant to my point.

If I call for someones death, whether I have the power to inact that or not, I am STILL giving my opinion that they SHOULD be killed. It's the attitude not the authority to carry it out that PM, and myself, were disturbed by.

I remember having this discussion before with you.

Adey, no, it is not that I am being 'disingenuous'. The facts are that Shaykh 'Uthaimeen did not know who it was that made the statement and he merely pointed out the punishment for a Muslim who utters a statement such as this particularly on the pulpit.

While 'Uthaimeen was a Saudi who was on the lajnah da'eemah his opinions would have no weight on any courts in Qatar as much as a legal decision in America would in England.

PM, while you may be uncomfortable with it, Allaah sent his book and the sunnah to be utilized at a legislative tool for Muslims. And as you are aware, it was utilized in the time of Muhammad and likewise up to today.

My point in bringing this speech from Qardawi is to show that this man utters statements that should leave every Muslim with an understanding of tawheed with a mouth agape. A statement like this would never be said by an 'ulema, let alone a 'normal' person of Islaamic knowledge.

And my point to mention Shaykh 'Uthaymeen's speech was to show just how serious his statement was in regards to speaking of Allaah in ways that are not permissible for a Muslim to do.

Whether you dispute or dislike the legislative measures that have been revealed then that is for a different post in my opinion inshaAllaah.

You are being disingenuous, he clearly called for, approved and sanctioned death:

"And if he does not he should be killed as an apostate"

&

"And if not then the Wullaat ul-Amr should strike his neck (with the sword)."

He has already decided the course of action the Wullut-al Amr should take. It's apparent in his use of the word 'should'. Whether they agree or not is another matter.

I corrected a typo and added a couple words to maybe make it clearer what the 2 individuals said.

Other than what I have done to try to make it clearer I am not sure what is unitelligible about it after reading it back again.

PM, Uthaimeen never called Qardawi an apostate. He was not told who the words had come from and he never put the threat of execution on him. As he states the Wullut-al Amr would be responsible to decide whether or not to carry that out or not.

Regarding Qardawee then he has made many outrageous statements much worse than the ones on suicide bombings and detailed refutations of this man have already been written, such as "ar-Radd alal-Qaradaawi (Refuting Qaradawi)" of Nasir bin Hamad al-Fahad and also "Iskaat Kalb al-Aawi (Silencing the Hounding Dog)" of Shaikh Muqbil bin Haadee, and other works, both large and small in volume.

Qardawee stated in a khutba, "Before I leave this station of mine (i.e. from giving this khutbah) I love that I should say a word about the results of the Israeli elections. The Arabs, all of them, were placing their hopes in the victory of Barleen, however he lost and this is what we praise about Israel. We desire and hope that our country can be like this country. Due to only a small number of people, the one who was actually ruling lost his position. There was not 94% or 95% (of votes) which is what we are accustomed to in our country, but 99%, (yes) 99%. If Allaah had presented himself to the people as a candidate he would not have been able to take this amount… we welcome Israel for what it has accomplished…"

Shaikh Ibn Uthaimeen said after Qardawee's words were played to him, "I seek refuge in Allaah. It is obligatory for this person to repent. And if he does not he should be killed as an apostate, since he made the creation more knowledgeable than the Creator. It is upon him to repent to Allaah, so if he repents, then Allaah forgives the sins of His servants. And if not then the Wullaat ul-Amr should strike his neck (with the sword)."

So your right, just because you intrepid the Kuran in a different way then others. I have read much more of this Quran then you might think. Call me what you will! but this is the way I see it as other might see it your way. Don't speak to me about misguidance, I think you are the one who is misguided. You got you brain shoved so far up your doodle and in the quran/bible that you can't see the real truth. These books are friggin written in the same manner any other book is written. These books were written by little old men with a dream of controlling our past, present and future. Do you really believe that because I don't understand the quran/bible they way you figure every one should that I am wrong in my thinking that these people are only following there crusade of terror based on what the quran and their leaders say. Where the hell do you think they got the idea to commit war on those who don't believe or accept. I think your the real DUMBBY! here abu.

By the way, if the way you are speaking to me on this forum is any indication of how a true muslim would deal with issues like these, then I think my ideology about the quran must be right.

I hope that you guys did read or know about this book written by the famous German Jürgen Todenhöfer.

The point is the truth is something that we do not know. And what we know is what the media wants us to know. Yu can google for the book or check youtube for a briefing interview with the author.

Bottom line. Islam is not suicide and terrorism. In Lebanon, following the Israeli invasion of 1982 and due to the war crimes of the Israeli army, suicide attacks were one of the methods followed in resisting the occupation. At that time we did not have Qaeda and we did not have Hizbulla. All the suicide attackers were coming from non-religious background or doctrine. Some were communists and they were not brainwashed. One of the famous Lebanese resistance fighters who followed this way was Sanaa Muhaidly who dressed herself like a bride and drove a car loaded with explosives to an Israeli checkpoint. That was her choice. She was given the title of the "Bride of the South" ===================================== http://www.qatarliving.com/node/58409

Do something then, instead of sitting on ur behinds and complaining,

U know why these people become suicide bombers in the first place, u know the atrocities which these people face,

Even if Religion is their justification, and maybe all the ahadith which they claim as their foundation is a misnomer, but the events which lead up to their mindset isnt.

its a plain fact that these people are just out for revenge and in the process, they do not even care for their lives, because that is the extent of their hurt

I put it plain and simple because that is what is in my head and the way I see it. If you feel that I shouldn't have an opinion or a choice of words then you are the ignorant and insensitive ones. I maintain that this kuran and the bible are books made up by a few little old white men, excuse me the kuran was made up by a few little old arbic men. The quran especially is degrading to women all way through, and it promote war. Is This The World We Created! (queen) no it is not it is the world the makers of these books wants it to be.

At least it proves that there are high level professionals who works for the excellent organized brain washing death machine, which makes young people to die…

that’s why I always say, these bombers are as the same poor victims as people they blow! Some bloody "Mother of Believers" once came into their lives, “recruited” them, “persuaded to be bombers”, “trained” them, and finally “picked them up and led them to their targets”.. sounds like someone is playing with the robots toys…sad!

So stop performing the same song: “people blow up themselves when they have nothing to loose”. NO! People blow up themselves when some criminals take a full control over their mind, their psychic, their souls and start manipulating their lives (or their death, I’d say?)

This bloody death machine must be stopped and destroied in the first place.. then maybe we will see the lights at the end of the tunnel…

So tempted, but..........I won't get into how the present book is a 6th, or at the very least 5th, hand transcription of the 'word' of 'god'.

Anyway to try and compound kenyaqueen's point in a less reactionary way, I would say that anyone that takes their moral stance from only one source is leaving themselves open to manipulation from those that can use that ignorance to turn, what are to be honest, very unclear statements to their own twisted ends.

And she has a point in that why are all religious texts contradictory and muddied?

But she is just the other side of the coin, if I remember correctly, in her deluded Xtian world view.

PM,

To be logical, Why God created Satan to mislead humans? Isn't it some sort of injustice? I think definitely not because He also gave us the strength to fight satan. Then, naturally, God wants believers to fight injustice and establish justice. Would you then expect believers to endure the injustice quietly?

Hence, it is not tough to derive justifications.

I don't want to prolong this discussion but there is a need to understand terrorism than fighting it alone..

PM "I would say suicide bombings are more than unfortunate. I would say they are evil and abhorrent."

Well PM, I call them unfortunate because they are the weapons of helpless people. When people find something useful, they start finding justifications for the same. Hence, no wonder suicide bombings found justification among those who have no other way to defend. We obviously cann't justify the same because we don't experience an iota of what they suffer. Otherwise who gives life willingly?

Hence, instead of fighting the terrorists, it is opt for the powerful to address their plight. I, however, condemn suicide bombings where innocents are targeted.

dont mind, I love everything about Azhar lol

President Mubarek (of Egypt), Sheik Tantawi (of Al-Azhar University, the foremost Muslim leader in Egypt) and Baba Shenouda (the foremost Christian leader in Egypt) are all in a plane together. Mubarek finds one Egyptian pound under his foot. He picks it up and thinks, hmm, what can I do with this? So he asks Sheik Tantawi, "Oh Tantawi, I found this pound, what should I do with it?" Tantawi says, "you should get two half pounds change and throw them out of the airplane window so you can make two people happy." Mubarek thinks to himself, oh this is an excellent idea. Then he goes to Baba Shanouda and asks, "O Baba, what should I do with this pound?" Baba Shanouda says, "get four quarter pounds and then throw them out of the plane, you will make four people happy." The President thinks to himself, O this is an even better idea. Then he turns to the flight attendant and asks, "I have this one pound, how can I make the most people happy?" and the flight attendant says, "O President, you should jump out of the plane and make 70 million people happy."

Anyhow. Somebody whispered to me that the word "martyr" is not mentioned in Quran, hence it has no Islamic roots or basis.

Suicide bombings were started by LTTE and later adopted by muslim outfits to support their cause. Those who adopted, started using some sensitive teachings of Islam to get recruits to their cause. Hence, suicide bombings are politically driven than religiously. This is my understanding. Anyway suicide bombings are unfortunate for any society...

Adey, plato,

I said the discussion returned to beginning because Adey, having read all my posts, went on to blame that lady alone without addressing what the people in power are supposed to do.

PM, why do you think religion is the driving force behind suicide bombings? Which religious support the so called Tamil Tigers have to engage in the same? What causing TTs to blow up themselves and don't others have the same reasons to die for? Why bother about what religion they practice? Why not try to understand the root cause of such actions?

have to disagree, theirs is an almost exclusive nationalistic dispute and do not invoke religion in the very act of blowing themselves up. Whereas Arab bombers mostly do(whether it's a distortion of Islam is irrelevant as far as their motivation is concerned)even though it can be argued that theirs is also a nationalistic dispute.

I know that christian Palestinians are involved in the struggle for a Palestinian state but I don't know if any have engaged in suicide or misguided martyrdom operations.

Please correct me if I am mistaken.

Because Eco, although the results are the same the motivation (whether you think it haram or not) also includes a different, added dimension.

Also the bombers often cite the need for invaders/crusaders to leave Muslim lands - thus they themselves overtly declare a religious reason. Corrupt or not they mention Islam, the tigers do not mention or invoke their religion. - This is why everyone 'thinks of Islam' when these atrocities occur.

From the Psychiatric Bulletin:

“In the case of the Tamil Tigers, though of Hindu origin, their motives, though nationalistic, have not been essentially religious……

A senior Arab psychiatrist in Gaza, Dr Eyad El-Sarraj, in an unpublished study quoted in a British newspaper (Silver, 2001) concluded (in reference to Arab bombers) that religion was a crucial, but not the only, reason for the phenomenon of martyrdom….

Prior to the ‘suicide’ bombing, a celebration would be arranged, which would be videotaped for subsequent display in a form resembling a religious ritual to sanctify the martyr before his community…..

…a moral and religious imperative based on it being honourable to die for God's cause in the face of oppression….”

it would be best to keep her alive as long as possible in a small dark cell with no access to her 'religion' at all. Through some 're education' or 'brain washing' let her come to the realisation that there is no afterlife to 'rejoice' in, and even if there was it will be the fiery depths that she will inhabit - and let her think on that (and the fact she helped others end their lives- the bombers and their victims) for a very very long time in her cramped captivity. I would say "may she rot in hell" but as I don't believe such a place exists then she should suffer in this life - death is too good for her.

This all presupposes that her confession is accurate and true.

Well I never said that what she is doing, if true, is right. I only said she could also convince and recruit already oppressed women about martyrdom to be more truthful and acceptable to terror sympathisers than succumbing to getting them raped which no Jihadi intending paradise for his actions could assume pleasing to God. Then what truth you find in the news?

Adey I meant revenge for those who imposed war on them and took away their peace. I am surprised you cann't get it!

Eco, you think a woman calling herself true 'Ummul Momineen' can arrange rapes( I say true because her actions are assumed religion driven here)? Are muslims such foolish to fall in a her trap?.....

Excerpt from an article by film maker who made a Channel 4 documentary on the phenomenon of female suicide bombers from the West Bank:

"Manal recruited Ayat at a family wedding when the two women were briefly alone. Manal told Ayat she would have to wait for the right time - but Manal knew she now had another would-be martyr in waiting.

Manal's plan was to use Sabrine to blow up a Jerusalem restaurant.

Instead, they were all arrested and sentenced to between four and five years in Hasharon. The three women insist they are still best friends.

'I often think of Manal as my sister. At first, my parents were angry at her for recruiting me, but I do not blame Manal. We have each chosen our path to God,' says Ayat.

In her cell I asked Sabrine what was going to happen to her in paradise after she had blown herself up.

'In paradise the male martyr gets 72 virgins but the female martyr becomes queen of those virgins. The rest of the virgins are her maids and they wait on her. She is the best and most beloved.'

Queen of the Virgins? It seems almost childish, and beyond the prison walls Ayat's confidence in her parent's forgiveness was ill-founded.

'If I had known what Ayat was planning I would have told the Jews. I would have stopped her,' said Ahmed Kmeil, her father.

'In our religion it is forbidden for a girl's body to be uncovered even at home. How could a girl allow her body to be smashed to pieces and then collected up by Jews? This is absolutely forbidden.'

Even Manal's family insisted that female suicide bombing is wrong.

'With a man it's different. For us, a girl can't show her leg or wear a short T-shirt. How can you then be a good Muslim woman and expose your body to the world? What Manal was doing recruiting those girls was wrong,' said her mother Nadia Saba'na.

Like most of us, Manal's and Ayat's families are unfamiliar with the aftermath of explosives and the human body. It's not pleasant. Most of the torso of the bomber just disintegrates leaving the head and lower limbs.

But what was shocking was none of the families of the would-be female suicide bombers expressed outrage about the innocent civilians their daughters would have killed.

They did not seem to be particularly concerned about their daughter's death. What they were worried about was pieces of their daughter's body being exposed to strangers, or worse still, to Jews. They saw everything through this false prism of 'honour'.

The same lessons, of course, apply in Iraq. If you are a woman blowing yourself up, exposing your body is forbidden and a sin.

The truth is that Iraq's insurgents have turned to female suicide bombing as a tactic of desperation.

Even in Baghdad, with all its security checkpoints, a woman dressed in the all concealing abaya is still more likely to succeed with a suicide bombing.

But the even greater truth is that raped, shamed, and psychologically manipulated, Iraq's female suicide bombers are, all too often, not seeking paradise but fleeing the hell of their lives on Earth."

And whoever commits suicide with piece of iron will be punished with the same piece of iron in the Hell Fire."

Gypsy: Today, in the portuguese newspapers it came the same information:

"Iraq. Samira Ahmed Jassim, of 51 years, was arrested on 21 January

Iraqi youth who had fallen used in disgrace

For a long time that Iraqi and American officials said that girls and women were being raped and then being taken to suicide. But had no evidence, at least until now. On Tuesday, in a video shown to the press, showed the confession of an Iraqi middle-aged to admit that dozens of suicide bombers recruited by order of the Sunni group Ansar al-Sunnah.

Samira Ahmed Jassim, of 51 years, the video shows that her code name was Umm al-Mumineen, which means Mother of the Believers. And explains that the first woman who was recruited A Hoda, or mother of Hoda, which exploded in the police in the province of Diyala. "I spoke with her often (...) took her to the squad and it was there that exploded," said Jassin, who is the mother of six children, four girls and two boys. In the case of another woman, Amal, the matriarch says she had to talk to her several times to convince: "She was very depressed. I took it to them, then came back to be with her so that she committed suicide."

Jassim acknowledged have recruited 28 women and planned attacks in several parts of Iraq. But the door - voice of the Iraqi Army, the major - General Qassim al-Mussawi, said she is suspected of eight more to convince dozens of Iraqi women to commit suicide. In an interview he gave to the AP, before his detention from 21 January to be announced, the matriarch showed that Sunni insurgents organized rape of women for her to persuade. "They were shattered women, especially those raped." In some areas of Iraq, like Diyala, victims of rape are overlooked by families and by society. Jassim explained that cooperated with the Ansar al-Sunnah for one and a half years and under threats of death.

The AP, which says that the interview was conducted in the presence of researchers, said, however, was not found, the independent source, the allegations that women were raped suicide on purpose. Iraqi and American officials also claim that at least two women with Down syndrome were used in attacks in 2008.

Last year saw a high number of women-bomb in Iraq, about 32, or more than 25 cases recorded in 2007. The use of women has increased by the fact that they are not searched and they hide explosives under Abaya - long black robes that they use."

Well if she does then, as Abu & Eco said, they are committing suicide and will be going to hell not paradise. Interesting to see you referring to them as martyrs and not suicides - perhaps Eco and Abu would be good enough to put you right on your opinion.

Glad you noticed the rape connection.

I mentioned it in my first post but no one commented on it.

Although this story is yet to be fully confirmed it does have a ring of truth about it ie a videotaped confession (can be seen on your link I believe, but has no translation), the rise in female bombers over the last year and the rising number of 'honour' killings in Iraq over the last couple of years.

I would not be surprised if this is confimed to be true.

One would hope that the rise in the proportion of votes(40+%) going to secular parties in the latesrt Iraqi elections will put a brake on religious political parties, as these groups make it easier for sectarian violence to breakout.

Islam condemns suicide as much as it condemns oppression and aggression against others.

While the Muslims are commanded to stand for their rights and defend themselves, their properties and their freedom they are told to first resort to peace and advocate tolerance ...

The following verses from the Quran show how the Quran describes suicide:

(2:195) You shall spend in the cause of Allah; do not throw yourselves with your own hands into destruction. You shall be charitable; Allah loves the charitable.

(4:29) O you who believe, do not consume each others' properties illicitly - only mutually acceptable transactions are permitted. You shall not kill yourselves. Allah is Merciful towards you.

(4:30) Anyone who commits these transgressions, maliciously and deliberately, we will condemn him to Hell. This is easy for Allah to do.

As the verses quoted above show, suicide in any form is condemned by Allah, no excuse given under any circumstances.

The Quran does not promise Heaven (Paradise) to those who commit suicide but rather warn of condemnation to Hell.

The promise of paradise or of virgin wives in Heaven for those suicide bombers and those who kill the innocent civilians has no basis in Islam and cannot be found anywhere in the Quran.

Suicide is a state of disbelief and loss of faith that is condemned by Allah throughout the Quran.

In the Quran, Allah commands the believers never to despair or lose hope and instead work for a brighter future.

I think you would agree with me that it doesn't matter if the hadith is weak to those that that will use it as religious 'cover' to go about their violent ends. they are not stupid, and if you can use it to persuade some poor dupe to blow themselves up - they will do that. And then there are those who call themselves 'muslim' who truly, but deludedly, believe it.

"It still makes no reference to killing yourself and the reward being connected."

Again, that's why those who promote and facilitate the bombings refer to them as 'martyrdom operations';and it's the martyrdom that gets you the reward.

It is quite clear that the blog was quoting Captain Ahmed Jasim from an article. It took me 2 seconds to find the link on that blog.

It is from The Telegraph newspaper,by Aqeel Hussein in Baquba and Damien McElroy 11:19AM GMT 16 Nov 2008

here it is:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/iraq/3464411/Mother-of-all-suicide-bombers-warns-of-rise-in-attacks.html

What you have to realise is that there are 'muslims' that do think this is real 'Islam'. You are better off arguing against those than burying your head in the sand and refusing to believe that such 'muslims' exist.

By adey• 4 Feb 2009 20:23

The dichotomy is between suicide and dying for a religious cause.

Which one takes precedence? Some(you) would argue that suicide is haram, others (such as those doing and supporting suicide bombing) would argue that dying for the religion negates suicide - that's why they term it martyrdom, and are thus worthy of their place in paradise with the attendant 72 women/virgins/raisins/grapes or what ever the translation may be. You would have thought the author of the Qu'ran would have realised that in the future Arabic would evolve with vowels and saved on all this trouble about what the words actually refer to, don't ya think?

Eco savvy come here my son.

Let me whisper it again.

I did answer you previously, you just misunderstood my writing and sinistral humor that I use based on real current events.

I rather have you educate me in the matter. Instead of criticizing me.

Just like abuamerican, Adey, Plato and many others have excellent comments of the real truth.

=============================================

Yet, the Koran speaks of 72 wifes not 40 virgins. It does not endorse suicidal bombings. Unfortunate Islam is taking a big "Hit" behind the issue, cause by other radical Muslims advocating it.

Is your job to educate us, the people of the west.

If you want us, to understand you...

This is how the brain washing works.

Abu is right, as much as I despair at the religious mindset, this is not the Islam as practiced by the majority of muslims, however it is the 'Islam' practiced by a (significant?) minority. This form of 'Islam' has taken root in some, whether one denounces it as heresy or not, to them it IS Islam. And they act accordingly, they really believe (brain-washed) that their actions will be rewarded in an Islamic paradise.

“she was part of a plot in which young women were raped and then sent to her for matronly advice. She said she would try to persuade the victims to become suicide bombers as their only escape from the shame and to reclaim their honor.”

"Then you have Itisam Adwan another 38-year-old Iraqi woman nicknamed “mother of the female suicide bombers” or “Umm Fatima” (the mother of Fatima) who was captured last September, 2008. Hardened and unrepentant, Itisam told police there were so many willing to follow in her footsteps, her arrest would make no difference. Captain Ahmed Jasim, of the Baquba police said, Itisam

“had described how a group of women, mainly widows of terrorist “martyrs”, who are grooming younger relatives and acquaintances for death.

“She said she is just one of many mothers who do the same job,” he said. “And there are many girls who are willing to die. The mothers tell them that they will go to heaven, where they will sit by rivers of honey and have lunch with the prophet Mohammad and live in comfort.

“The girls are the wives of al-Qaeda members, so their husbands tell them that their martyrdom would be glorious and the husbands too will automatically get to heaven as a result of their wives willingness to kill themselves in the name of religion.” "

Who penned these lines? - Captain Ahmed Jasim, of the Baquba police, and he was quoting Itisam Adwan, aka “mother of the female suicide bombers” or “Umm Fatima” who was captured last September, 2008.

Please read what I posted carefully. I am actually defendinfg the fact(and you) that Islam does NOT say the things you quoted from my post. The clue was in the third line I wrote - "Abu is right"

Blabla: "We all know not all muslims think the way these people do. So bleme it on their ordeal that triggers the revenge. As long as there is oppression there will be terrorism. the world has to live with it. Islam is made the victim because it is muslims who are oppressed...."

Couldn't agree more and i think that isn't only Islam but other religions do similar things too, just that in the case of Islam, the conflict Israel/Palestina has made them to be more famous and because of it they are used very often on attacks using people that thinks that they'll get rewarded by replacing Allah on his decisions of who lives and who dies.

The best way to prevent these events should be educating people.

She was just helping the almighty in cleansing his creation.

Charles Manson is a different story. He was a chronic offender and took shelter in religious doctrine. Helter Skelter was just a figment of his imagination which he wanted to see in real life. This lady is just the opposite. Hers is a Religion to Crime story.

When we think of a “mother”, the images that come in our mind are those of a nurturing, protective, loving soul.

Do these people have any conscience whatsoever? Do they have hearts or Souls? Do they truly believe that Allah will welcome them in heaven when it’s their time to go? Even animals have more maternal instincts than these women.

They certainly have no right to call themselves “a mother”.
