The Lie of: "Raping the Muhajirat"
Testimony by Abu Ahmad al-Muhajir al-Misri @Mohhager
Former member of Jaysh Muhammad, currently in Jabhat al-Nusrah

[This testimony is regarding the claim from IS(IS) members and supporters, that when the infighting first started between the rebels and ISIS, some of the women from the muhajirin were raped, so this is what Abu Ahmad personally saw and witnessed]
The first that told this lie is Abu Steef al-'Iraqi when he came to us at the base belonging to Jaysh Muhammad. He was crying until we believed him. After this Abu Muhammad at-Tunisi came to me after I had taken out his wife and another brother to a safe place (when the fighting first started between the rebels and ISIS), he also told the lie until I strongly believed what he was saying.
He told me that the Sahawat in Tel Rif'at have raped the women of the Muhajirin (emigrants), and at that time I was a passionate ISIS-supporter, may Allah forgive me. So I began to verbally attack anyone that talked about remaining calm.
When we left to confirm the issue, and searched for any sort of evidence of rape taking place, we couldn't find anything at all...
Every time Abu Steef came to me to tell me that "this time we have confirmation", we couldn't find anything after investigating what he said except lies. If you saw his manner when he told us this, your chest would inflame and you would search for a car bomb to explode yourself in it.
I was a translator for him to the brothers from Uzbekistan, among them was a brother named Abdul-Rahman who was fluent in English. I transmitted what he (Abu Steef) said so that they would leave Sayfullah (al-Shishani) and join Dawlah (ISIS), may Allah forgive me for my emotions overcame me and I believed their lies and I became like a bewitched person supporting them.
During the last time I saw the one called Abu Steef, he had with him someone i believe to be a Amir (leader) who was also Iraqi. He wanted to leave with his family to Turkey, so he came to me so I would take him out. And it was like that he wanted to escape, he didn't talk in front of anyone and he would plea with me that I kept the matter secret until he was able to get out.
Abu Steef talked with me regarding a sister from Tunisia saying confidently that she is with so-and-so from Liwa al-Fath and she was being raped for more than 10 days. This made the whole world blacken out in front of me due to the grief and anguish from what had (allegedly) taken place against her.
So I began to incite the brothers that we pledge to fight those that rape the women from the Muhajirin. At that time I fell for and were deceived by their lies which I trusted, for by Allah, these people have mastered the art of of lying.
He said that the sister's name was Umm Ya'qub at-Tunisiyyah, and go and you will find what I'm saying to be the truth. So I pledged to Allah with sincerity that I would charge against them until I am killed or I kill them.
We went to Tel Rif'at to search after the sister - and we from Jaysh Muhammad acted as a middle-man to exchange prisoners between ISIS and the other rebels. So we said we want so-and-so (i.e. the sister) and it has come to us that she has been raped by so-and-so from Liwa al-Fath.
So three youths from Liwa al-Fath that were Ansar (i.e. Syrians) said to us: "By Allah if this is true, we will wear explosive-belts and blow ourselves up by the one who did this and those that protected him."
So the accused man came after they brought him to us and said: "I'll kiss your shoes, take her." (a Syrian phrase meant to show extreme humbleness.)
We were surprised by all of this and why the man said these sort of words. But when we went to the sought after house we knew the reason for this and our amazement desisted; The sister (may Allah protect and forgive her) was wearing an explosive belt and a vest, and anytime anyone came near her, she would grab the detonators. So is someone like this going to get raped??
She said; "I want to see Shaykh Abu 'Ubaydah al-Masri (leader of Jaysh Muhammad)". So the Shaykh came to speak and guide her and to ask her to remove the explosive belt and not to be afraid since she is going to leave the place boldly and defiant.
She refused to remove the belt, so he told her that if any person makes a wrong move, you will pull your belt and we came (to Syria) to get killed by the hands of the disbelievers, not by your hands.
At the end of the story, we took the sister to A'zaaz to the house of the Shaykh (Abu Ubaydah) and she stayed with his family. After she had calmed and trusted the wife of the Shaykh, he informed us what she had said to her; The sister - may Allah forgive her, cried and said that "upon my neck is (responsibility for having spilled) blood, and I don't know what I should do. Once when they came to me with food I became frightened and threatened to detonate the belt. And with them was a pregnant woman who had prepared the food, and when she heard what I said she panicked and miscarried her fetus because of me.. And I don't know how I compensate for this sin (kaffarah)".
After this another lie emerged of a sister being raped in Hreitan after her abduction, so we gave her name and the name of her husband to a Libyan brother who was the Amir of Hreitan, so he met the husband so we could find out the truth of the matter, and the husband responded by saying "this is a great slander".
The truth was that his son was driving their car fast in the area where Liwa at-Tawhid controlled, which made the Tawhid members frightened due to this was the time when car bombs was beginning to take place, so they fired against the tires (to stop the vehicle) but when they realized that there was a woman inside of it they asked for forgiveness and let the brother and his mother leave the area.
Lies and then more lies to to raise the emotions from their members, something they succeeded in doing and their lies affected many. That which took place before is happening again and even increasing. At the beginning they said that it was women from Holland that were being raped and now it's German ones.
Tel Rif'at used to be called among the members of Dawlah "The Islamic Emirate of Tel R'ifat" due to the city embracing them and marrying off their women to many of them. Subhan Allah, they married off their daughters to you and trusted you with their honor, so is it logical that they would then transgress against your honor (i.e. wives) O people of Dawlah?
And now, many of the girls from Tel Rif'at that married soldiers from Dawlah are in a suspense like situation - she isn't married nor is she divorced. In what religion is this allowed?
Is it allowed for you to treat the way you did against the peoples girls? Would anyone of you approve of this happening to your own sister??
The reason for this:
I was responsible for their injured and giving them sanctuary and protecting them and transporting their women. And I was also a source for recommendation (tazkiyah) for whoever wanted to join Dawlah and ask (for confirmation of this) Abu Sa'd al-Deeb, who was the temporary Wali of A'zaaz after Abu 'A'ishah. And ask Abu al-Walid al-Jazrawi who was the Wali in A'zaaz after him, regarding me - may Allah forgive me.
Ask about me, for everyone that was injured in A'zaaz and in Shimareen and the hospitals in Turkey will tell you who I am, O soldiers of Dawlah, and I haven't said anything except what I directly experienced and saw.
After this, I saw what I saw and heard what I heard from the injured members of Dawlah regarding what took place, and I saw the bombing of Tel Rif'at with mortars and grad-missiles while the soldiers from Dawlah were still inside the city.
So when we spoke with Abu Abdul-Rahman at-Tunisi that he should withdraw the brothers and stop the bombing of Tel Rif'at, he said "we count them as martyrs and we will not stop bombing the apostates (murtadin)".
70 brothers that he didn't care for, like they were worth nothing. Most of them died there due to your actions O Abu Abdul-Rahman. HasbunAllah wa ni'mal wakil.
Are all of the people in Tel Rif'at apostates that you can bomb them with mortars and grad-missiles? The one responsible for the mortars were a Jazrawi (Saudi) brother who had previously made jihad in Iraq, and he was married to a local woman from Tel Rif'at. And when he was ordered to strike Tel Rif'at with the mortars he fled to us and we took him out to Turkey so that he wouldn't spill any Muslim blood, and after that he went to Raqqah.
And after this, the car bombs started to take place, and the one who started this was Abu Zubayr at-Tunisi who was with us in Jaysh Muhammad before joining Dawlah, he was fooled by the lies of rape of the muhajirat.
And after this, I saw how they treated the prisoners and I saw how the security officers acted, by Allah it was like the tawaghit acted. The way they tortured and humiliated the brothers is like what the tawaghit do.
And I saw people that were from the most foolish ones, becoming leaders & prominent members, most notably is Abu Abdul-Rahman al-Iraqi whom they call "Shaykh al-Dhabbah" (Shaykh of Slaughtering), and he's nothing except a maniac and mentally deranged. And he fell into apostasy (riddah) and refusing to go after Allah's judgement and shari'ah regarding (an incident) where he unjustly asked for a rifle (not belonging to him) and he started to threaten that he will spray (with bullets) and do such-and-such.
So I alerted him that by saying he's going to take his right by using his weapon and not accepting to let Allah's shari'ah decide on the matter, that he has fallen into saying things that are Kufr. Yet he still continued to say what he said, and I continued to say that he should take his right through Allah's shari'ah and by going to the courts run by Dawlah and their judges. Yet he still said "I will take my right through this" while raising his weapon.
So I shouted at him that by saying this you are falling into apostasy, so he began to cry and say: "I'm insane (majnoon), I'm a maniac, my mind have deficiencies and I'm a idiot and your shoe are above my head".
He left us afterwards and what he did in Aleppo and in Rahbah al-Taslih and beating on peoples door is a long story which I do not want to talk about so not to expose him further, for if I wanted to, I could.
Pass by Abu Qatadah at-Tunisi who is the Amir of a checkpoint in al-Bab city, how great of a infliction and hardship is it that he has been positioned to judge among the general population.
And the scandals of Abu Abdul-Rahman at-Tunisi who is the Amir of the Northern Section (al-Qita' al-Shamali) and previously the Amir of the security officers in Aleppo.
Not to mention the ones from France (that are in Dawlah) that threatened us with enslaving our women if they ever entered A'zaaz. This is after they used to be with us in Jaysh Muhammad, and one of them was someone that I used to share a house with and share the same food with, and he used to let me lead the prayer and I taught him how to read Qur'an. Then he left to join Dawlah and made takfir on us.
And also the fatwas by (Abu Ja'far) al-Hattab (from Tunisia) which made permissible for them (to take from) the wealth of the general population and to steal the homes that they used to live in in A'zaaz, all under the argument that the people were apostates (murtadin).
There's so so much that I have heard and seen, but Alhamdulillah that he opened my eyes to see the truth regarding them and that I didn't pledge allegiance to them nor that I acted the way they did with regards to them violating peoples wealth and blood. There's a lot left to say and I will expand further on it for those that want it at the appropriate time.
These people are using for their own profit the honors of the chaste ones, to instigate their members to kill those that they see to be against them, and they have succeeded in their lies previously and today the scenario is being repeated. (With the recent IS offensive against rebel-held Northern Aleppo)
They repeat it so to put the sword on the neck of the Muslims, and if (may Allah forbid) tomorrow they enter Mare', you will see much blood be shed and their blind justifications for it.
This is (only) a little from much that I know of, and by the Lord of the ka'ba, for those that used to ask me why I changed from being supportive of Dawlah to beginning to attack it, then these are some of the reasons why. Yet even these reasons are only from the few, the rest of them are more tragic and effective, which I will tell in its proper time by the will of Allah. O Allah guide them for verily they do not know.
O Allah forgive me for any harm I have done against the Muslims by word or action, O Allah show me the truth to be truth and grant me guidance, and show me falsehood to be falsehood, and save me from it.
And now I have finished this story that they use to fool their members, and I swear by Allah that what I have said to be the truth and Allah is the best of helpers against what they claim.

ياكذوب زوجة حجي بكر رفضت الخروج من تل رفعت حتي لا تترك ولديها
"O liar, the wife of Hajji Bakr refused to leave Tel Rif'at so that she didn't had to leave her parents."

والله انا بنفسي تواصلت مع الاخوة بشآنه ووصل امره لعثمان ال نازح عم طريق اخ اسمه مصعب الشامي ليتم محاكمته لكن نفس الامر مريض نفسي
"By Allah, I myself contacted the brothers (in regards to Abu Abdul-Rahman al-Iraqi), and the issue of him reached Uthmaan Aal-Nazeh (senior IS judge) through a brother named Mus'ab al-Shami, so that he could be prosecuted. But the same excuse as usual, "He's mentally ill".
