Asmaa Mohamed, Widow of ISIS Leader Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi: ISIS Is a Black Stain in History

AlArabiya Network (Saudi Arabia) aired on February 15, 2024 a detailed interview with Asmaa Mohamed, the first wife of ISIS leader Abu Bakr AlBaghdadi, who was killed by American forces in 2019. Mohamed said that ISIS was a black stain on history, that it is over, and she does not think it will be resurrected. She told AlArabiya Network that ISIS had become obsessed with women, that she estimates AlBaghdadi kept more than 10 Yazidis slave girls, one of whom was a child who stayed with her own children for two months. She said that all ISIS emirs kept Yazidi slave girls. Mohamed said that slavery is unacceptable for any human being in the 21st century. She said that all AlBaghdadi cared about was conquest and his personal security, and that ISIS dreamt about conquering Rome. Asmaa Mohamed, along with other family members of AlBaghdadi have been repatriated in Iraq recently. It is assumed they were held in Turkey until now.
