Tomasa Pérez Molleja

Tomasa Pérez Molleja (1976–2019) was a Spanish woman who traveled to Syria to join the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) in 2014, taking her children with her. In 2022, her death was confirmed; she had died in Baghuz, where ISIL had their territorial last stand, in 2019. Three of her six Spanish-born children were also killed in Syria. She was in her third year of high school and dropped out soon after meeting him, months before she would have taken university entrance exams. She converted to Islam, and shortly afterwards she and Ahram married, which gave him Spanish citizenship. She had their first child at age 19, in 1995, and another in 1996. She and Ahram would have six children altogether. Ahram worked nights, and Pérez was a stay-at-home mother. In 2003, the family moved to Sweden, but they were denied a residency permit, so moved to Morocco.

In Syria, Yasin took the nom de guerre Abu Lais Al Qurdubi. He was wounded in the summer of 2016, required two surgeries and was in a wheelchair, then on crutches. He appeared on an ISIL propaganda video, speaking in Spanish and saying, "Allah willing, Al Andalus will become once again what it was, part of the caliphate."
