Mariam Al Mansouri's participation in F-16 bombing raids for the UAE is frowned upon by her family who call her an ingrate and showed their support for ISIS.An anonymous statement released by the family reads.....
In the
name of God All Merciful.
'O
ye who believe! Take not your fathers or your brethren for friends if they
favour disbelief over faith. Those of you who taketh them for friends are
wrong-doers.' [Quranic verse]
'Renouncement of Mariam Al Mansouri:
'We
the Mansouri family in the United Arab Emirates hereby publicly declare that we
disown the so-called Mariam Al Mansouri as well as anyone taking part in the
brutal international aggression against the brotherly Syrian people, starting
with our ingrate daughter Mariam Al Mansouri.
'We
hereby remind the Muslim nation all over the world of its duty to defend the
causes of the nation [meaning the Islamic nation], and we urge them to take up
the jihad [holy war] for the sake of God to support the blessed Syrian
revolution against the descendants of Ibn Al Alqami.' [Sunni Islamist
insurgents refer to the Shi'a as 'alqami' - a reference to Mu'ayyad al-Din
Muhammad Ibn al-Alqami, a Shi'ite minister in the last Abbasid caliphate, who
purportedly assisted the Mongols in conquering Baghdad in 1258.]
'We
call upon all factions and battalions operating on the Syrian battleground to
unite and join efforts and forces towards the single objective of overthrowing
the monstrous Assad regime perched on the pure and blessed Syrian land.
'Al
Mansouri family, in the UAE and abroad, takes this opportunity to declare its
support for the blessed Syrian revolution and to all free men defending their
rights everywhere in the world.
'Our
family is proud of all free men who defend their cause and of all those who
take up arms to defend the honour of their nation [The Islamic Nation}. We are
proud of the Sunni heroes in Iraq and the Levant and all those who take up the
banner of righteousness wherever they may be. We may not know them, but God
knows them and would champion them.
'We
ask our countrymen not to burden us with the consequences of the actions of the
so-called Mariam Al Mansouri. All the honourable members of our family have
agreed to this statement.
'Al Mansouri family.'
