PETALING JAYA: A 26-year-old woman who claims to be a Malaysian has caused shockwaves on social media as she has been regularly posting updates on her experiences as a ‘Muhajirah’ on her Facebook, Tumblr and Twitter accounts.
Most of her posts were compiled by American social media website Buzzfeed and she appears to be a doctor who travelled to Syria and entered into an arranged marriage with an Islamic State militant.
“I’m a Muhajirah, who speaks urdu and hindi and that’s how some sisters welcome me here... With movie and song title. I’m from Malaysia,” she said on her Twitter account, @BirdOfJannah on Aug 11.
On her Facebook account, she claimed that she went to Syria because she wanted to serve the people because she is a doctor.
“I made hijrah (pilgrimage) to Syria and my parents are not with me, but they are okay with my decision,” she said in one of her comments on Facebook.
After two months in Syria, she thought about marriage as she found it difficult to live on her own and she was introduced to a Moroccan by her housemate in Syria.
“One night, my best friend knocked on my door and before I could answer her, she opened the door and jumped on me. She told me that her husband has spoken to his friend, and his friend is interested in marrying me even without looking at me.
Back then the couple did not even have a common language. This she said, happened quite often within the movement.
