Sajida al-Rishawi was on death row “in Jordan for her role in a 2005 Al Qaeda attack on three hotels in the capital of Amman that killed 60 people, The Associated Press reports. She was arrested after her suicide vest of explosives didn’t detonate.”
The Jordanians are promising a strong response to the Islamic State’s murder of the Jordanian pilot. But it is unlikely that they will be able to follow up their strong words with strong actions. What are they going to do, invade the Islamic State? Almost certainly not.
“Jordan execute [sic] failed Iraqi female suicide bomber,” ITV, February 3, 2015:
Jordan have [sic] executed a failed Iraqi female suicide bomber in revenge for the murder of a Jordanian pilot by the terror group.
Sajida al-Rishawi was killed at dawn along with another Iraqi extremist previously sentenced to death, Jordanian security sources told Reuters.
She was jailed in 2005 after unsuccessfully trying to blow up a hotel in Amman for Al-Qaida. The terror group operates under the name IS in Iraq.
72 Virgins says
Does she get? Hmmmmmmmm…..The force is strong in the middle east….
Jerry says
If she was still alive she could get 72 inexperienced Kurdish Pasmerga boys having their way with her before being discarded dead on the dung heaps of Kobani, though, to be fair to them, I do not wish her filth upon them.
Fiqh Al-Matter says
Love death like they love life.
Matthieu Baudin says
Did this woman ever actually kill anyone or was she persuaded to be a suicide bomber to restore the honour of her family or clan, for some supposed misdemeanour, like so many other recruits?
TJ says
She and her husband were in on the attack together. When her bomb had issues detonating, her husband pushed her out of the room and set off his own bomb, killing 38 people.
M S case says
How sick can any one be ”””’pushing your wife out of a bombing…..How sad

Suicide prohibited: reward of suicide is hell
4: 29. O you who believe! Eat not up your property among yourselves unjustly except it be a trade amongst you, by mutual consent. And do not kill yourselves (nor kill one another). Surely, Allah is Most Merciful to you.
4: 30. And whoever commits that through aggression and injustice, We shall cast him into the Fire, and that is easy for Allah.
39: 53. Say: “O ‘Ibâdî (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allâh, verily Allâh forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Bukhari :: Book 2 :: Volume 23 :: Hadith 445
Narrated Thabit bin Ad-Dahhak:
The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, “Whoever intentionally swears falsely by a religion other than Islam, then he is what he has said, (e.g. if he says, ‘If such thing is not true then I am a Jew,’ he is really a Jew). And whoever commits suicide with piece of iron will be punished with the same piece of iron in the Hell Fire.” Narrated Jundab the Prophet said, “A man was inflicted with wounds and he committed suicide, and so Allah said: My slave has caused death on himself hurriedly, so I forbid Paradise for him.”
Muslim :: Book 1 : Hadith 199
It is narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) observed: He who killed himself with steel (weapon) would be the eternal denizen of the Fire of Hell and he would have that weapon in his hand and would be thrusting that in his stomach for ever and ever, he who drank poison and killed himself would sip that in the Fire of Hell where he is doomed for ever and ever; and he who killed himself by falling from (the top of) a mountain would constantly fall in the Fire of Hell and would live there for ever and ever.
Bukhari :: Book 8 :: Volume 76 :: Hadith 500
Narrated Sa’d bin Sahl As-Sa’idi:
The Prophet looked at a man fighting against the pagans and he was one of the most competent persons fighting on behalf of the Muslims. The Prophet said, “Let him who wants to look at a man from the dwellers of the (Hell) Fire, look at this (man).” Another man followed him and kept on following him till he (the fighter) was injured and, seeking to die quickly, he placed the blade tip of his sword between his breasts and leaned over it till it passed through his shoulders (i.e., committed suicide).” The Prophet added, “A person may do deeds that seem to the people as the deeds of the people of Paradise while in fact, he is from the dwellers of the (Hell) Fire: and similarly a person may do deeds that seem to the people as the deeds of the people of the (Hell) Fire while in fact, he is from the dwellers of Paradise. Verily, the (results of) deeds done, depend upon the last actions.”
Bukhari :: Book 4 :: Volume 56 :: Hadith 669
Narrated Jundub:
Allah’s Apostle said, “Amongst the nations before you there was a man who got a wound, and growing impatient (with its pain), he took a knife and cut his hand with it and the blood did not stop till he died. Allah said, ‘My Slave hurried to bring death upon himself so I have forbidden him (to enter) Paradise.’ ”

What happens to those who die while killing infidels?

Yes, all very interesting.
And your point is?
Western Canadian says
In case anyone actually wonders if this dim-witted lout believes any of the drivel he posts…. no, even he isn’t quite that stupid. He just hopes we are. MAJOR FAIL!!!
Kenny says
Agreed!
They kill one on our side, we kill two on theirs!
It’s the only thing they understand. Meet force with even more force.
M S case says
We are not putting up much force though…dropping a few firecrackers now and then
The longer we wait the stronger they get. boats rockets and planes and carpet bombs.
I guess some innocents would be killed though. Maybe not a good idea.
Nicu says
stupid headscarf bitch –I hope she suffered , too !
Richie says
I hope they died in agony.
Only 2 isis vermin were put to death? I was hoping for 20
john says
Israeli source says they will execute 5. This was just the first two
Mike says
I consider Jordan’s response to be weak. I agree that it is not likely that they will invade the Islamic State but nothing less than the annihilation of ISIS would bring justice for the incineration of the pilot.
David says
I totally agree. Jordan should bomb them to their Paradise (hell). They should do more.
Doug says
The Jordanian Army is doesn’t have much of an army. Sort of like the one our liberal friends in the US aspire to.
Salah says
“What are they going to do, invade the Islamic State? Almost certainly not.”
Don’t be so sure, Robert. There are more and more calls from the Arab world, especially from Egypt, asking their leaders to unite and send boots on the ground to fight and destroy ISIS.
They *can* do it unless the US openly and publicly sides with ISIS, that is.
Roxane says
Sajidi’s partner blew himself up in a Jordon hotel at a wedding reception killing dozens. She is evil and should have been executed long ago.
Matthieu Baudin says
Thanks for the details Roxane (and TJ earlier) for the details. Looks like husband and wife were both wilful fanatics and mass murderers. Live by the sword, die by the sword. The pilots father is also a brave man, calling for Jordan to wage unrelenting war against the Islamic State Caliphate.
FatherJon says
She got a quicker and more humane death than the poor pilot.
MKG says
One failed suicide bomber for one pilot. Hardly a fair trade off.
Max Publius says
Jordan says ISIS is not Islam in any way, but then immediately executes this admittedly heinous person, not on a scheduled execution after a court verdict, but as a revenge reaction to ISIS.
Let’s face it Jordan, you’re just a more polished version of ISIS–simmering Islamic hate barely below the surface waiting to explode always, just like every other Muslim-majority country.
john says
Both of them had already been sentenced to death by Jordans courts.
Max Publius says
I figured that, but it’s obvious the hanging schedule was advanced out of revenge. Vendetta killing usually is a way to get more killing. Any way, I don’t weep for these murderers, nor do I think Jordan is a victim. It has plenty of blood on its hands over decades.
Max Publius says
Hey Jordon, revenge executions sound pretty much like ISIS and Islam to me!
FatherJon says
Before anyone gets too philosophical and weepy about Jordan ‘doing the same as ISIS’, check out the actual vid of the burning. It’s not pleasant so if you’re squeamish don’t watch. But maybe we can understand how the woman and her companion were lucky to get the hangman’s drop which is a far quicker, less painful death than ISIS gave the pilot –

Max Publius says
Yes, got it. I’m not against the death penalty, that wasn’t my point. I think it’s worth pointing out that even the “good guy” in this story reverts to form when threatened. Modern law is just window dressing for foreign consumption in every Islamic country.
Rev. Albert W. Kovacs - UCC says
Jesus never asked the centurion, whose child he healed, to give up his sword, but affirmed his faith. Neither did Peter deny baptism to the centurion although he wielded a sword. Paul clarifies when he comments that the “magistrate” (Government) is given the sword for a purpose, to be used against those who threaten life. As we are reminded in Eccl., there is a time to hate, to kill, to die – the Jordanian response is appropriate to the cause.
Max Publius says
Correction “Jordan”. My apologies, it’s early.
guide inside says
How about a video of all five to be executed? What method did Jordon use for the first two? If isis starts doing this to all their neighbors we will have to have a separate tv network just to run all the fun! You some how think it cant get any worse until it actually does. How sad.
Salome says
Hanging, so I heard. Not sure whether they use long drop or short. I think their royals are British-educated, so probably long drop.
Angemon says
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust

duh_swami says
Jordan’s actions will probably stimulate ISIS to kill more hostages in gruesome ways. ISIS is into rubbing salt in the wounds. One problem with the ME and always has been, is just because they read from the same book, or pray together, does not mean they like or trust each other. No Mahoundian leaders in a country like the idea of being invaded by upstarts trying to seize power from them. With ISIS that is what they are confronted with. So while they will hate to do it, they may very well ban together and invade ISIS held territory on the ground. They can justify this the same way Rasool Obama does it…ISIS is not Islamic…They are taqfir, so it us permissible to kill them…Besides, Allah has them covered with Quran 8:17 where Allah rakes credit for all the killing.
BlueRaven says
This is getting real nasty – as it is getting real evil. Mo has paved a way right to the door of Hell. As far as Mohamedians are concerned, nastiness is a way of life. They spend the entire life hating Jews, Christians, Hindus, Athiests, Homosextuals, neighbors, sisters, brothers, uncles, aunts, other Islamic versions and variations etc etc.
Mohamedian life is a way to live out evil right here on earth. I don’t want that for my people.

The story reports that:
Sajida al-Rishawi was on death row “in Jordan for her role in a 2005 Al Qaeda attack on three hotels in the capital of Amman that killed 60 people, The Associated Press reports. She was arrested after her suicide vest of explosives didn’t detonate.”
An article from Jihad Watch ten years ago reported on this, including the following details:
“Al-Rishawi’s brother was once the right-hand man to Abu Musab al- Zarqawi, the Jordanian leader of al-Qaida in Iraq…
“Al-Rishawi was shown on state television wearing a white head scarf, a buttoned, body-length dark denim dress, and belts packed with TNT and ball bearings…[“designed to kill as many people as possible” according to Deputy Prime Minister of Jordan, Marwan Muasher].
“Al-Rishawi said she and her husband, Ali Hussein Ali al-Shamari, 35, were wearing explosive-laden belts when they strolled into a Radisson ballroom where hundreds of guests, including children, were attending a Jordanian-Palestinian wedding reception.
“Residents of Iraq’s Anbar province said al-Rishawi comes from a clan living mostly in Ramadi, an insurgent stronghold about 70 miles west of Baghdad.
“Ironically, the clan, known variously as the Burishas and the Rishawis, is known for its good ties with the Americans…
“The security official said the Radisson also was targeted is because it is a favorite for Israeli tourists…

Even Jordan can teach a thing or two about dealing with the jihadis to the lowly, base dhimmi English people.
