After 9/11, bin Laden won the world's headline position for more than a decade in one fell swoop, and became a thorn in the eye that Americans had to pull out.
During this period, the US military never gave up the pursuit of him, and repeatedly claimed to have killed him, but it was later proved that the killing was bin Laden's stand-in, until 2011, when bin Laden was completely killed by the US Navy SEALs. It took years for his past, family and life to be fully revealed.
So what kind of person was bin Laden? Where did he come from? What does he remember about family? What kind of experience did the women of the Bin Laden family have?
Bin Laden's two mothers
Many people know that bin Laden was the leader of the world-renowned terrorist organization Al-Qaida, who personally planned 9/11 and bombed the US embassy many times. People who think of these horror groups always think of hiding in the desert, without trimming, or being poor and destitute.
But bin Laden's origin is not so, although he became famous in Afghanistan, he is a real Saudi, and the family is still very rich, the father is a famous local builder, rich to have 22 wives in his lifetime, and countless women have had an affair, and he is constantly looking for flowers and willows before he dies.
It is necessary to mention here the Saudi Arabian marriage system, in which a man can have 4 wives, and they are all legally original.
But it should be known that Saudis are generally very rich, although many people fill the share of 4 wives, but it does not mean that they only have 4 women, so many locals have such a habit, the first three wives are fixed, the fourth wife is changed with the wife, always maintaining a flexible vacancy, and even some people call all the women who are left except for the three wives their fourth wife, which is ridiculous.
However, bin Laden was born in such an environment that his mother, Alia, was one of his father's many "fourth wives" or, more accurately, one of his father Muhammad's many outer chambers.
And Alia herself is the daughter of a Syrian businessman, not a Saudi, so her status in the Bin Laden family will only be lower.
Arya's life consisted of only one biological son, bin Laden, and was a thoroughly bullied by other family women during her time in bin Laden's family, and eventually almost became a maid of the family.
Mother Alia
Bin Laden, who grew up in this environment, was naturally not valued by his father or his family. Whenever the mother and son are bullied, Aria always advises him to be patient, which also causes bin Laden's character to be twisted, taciturn, and gloomy.
In 1968, bin Laden's father, Muhammad, died in a plane accident, and his mother, Alia, soon remarried, and bin Laden had to live with another of his father's wives, Khalifa, who was also very kind to bin Laden's son.
But it was also at this time that bin Laden's good days came, as the 17th of Muhammad's 52 children, even if he was not favored, he inherited his father's inheritance of up to $300 million, which shows the luxury and wealth of the Bin Laden family.
As he grew older, bin Laden's personality gradually became apparent, and his life experience outside gave him more ideas and would not be bullied by his brothers.
With the rise of the struggle between the Soviet Union and Afghanistan in the 1980s, bin Laden also took this opportunity to come to Afghanistan to participate in the struggle, gradually accumulating more combat experience, and accumulating a considerable amount of experience in dialogue with the enemy, and gradually moving towards the later path.
It is worth mentioning that bin Laden's birth mother, Alia, has always disapproved of her son's horrific actions, and after bin Laden was killed, Aria has repeatedly told the media that she has always loved her son, but is disappointed and angry about what he has done.
Not only was this the case with her birth mother, but even her adoptive mother, Khalifa, had said that she did not approve of bin Laden's actions.
War in Afghanistan
In fact, bin Laden's childhood and youth, although he did not get the love of his father and was often bullied by his brothers, the two mothers have always been very kind to him, and it is also a rare warmth in his youth, and he has always maintained a good relationship with the two mothers after he became an adult.
Bin Laden's wives
Like his father and even many Arab men, bin Laden nominally had four wives, but in fact it was revealed that bin Laden had five wives and at least four lovers.
However, according to the news exposed by the family after bin Laden was killed, many people agree very much that bin Laden is different from his original wife and his cousin Naiwa, it can be said that Naiva is his true love, and even many of his terrorist acts and hatred of the Americans are inseparable from Naiva.
In 1974, the 17-year-old bin Laden married his 14-year-old cousin Naiwa, although this seemed to be an ordinary family marriage, but for the two young people, the two liked each other for a long time, and bin Laden did not have the later viciousness, and for a long time, his wife Naiwa was like his white moonlight.
In recorded sources, bin Laden had more than 20 children in his more than 50 years of life, and his first wife, Naiwa, gave birth to 11 of them, which shows that the relationship between the two is very good.
But even so, according to the traditional customs of the Shasats and the so-called age of bin Laden, Naiva, like other wives, was strictly restricted in his daily life and could not go out and go abroad at will.
The reason why bin Laden later embarked on a path that made Americans uncomfortable from time to time was actually related to his experience with Naiwa going to the United States.
He and Naiwa's children fell ill at the time, and in order to get better medical conditions, bin Laden traveled to the United States with his wife and children. However, shortly after they boarded the plane, several passengers had been staring boldly at Naiwa, and perhaps rarely saw a Middle Eastern woman on the plane.
And compared to the boldly dressed American passengers, Naiva, who is tightly covered and only shows a pair of eyes, is obviously very eye-catching.
This may not be much for free-spirited Americans, but it is a very impolite act for Middle Eastern women and os-bin Laden, a direct violation of the dignity of him and his wife, Naiva, and this blatant staring at people is very infuriating.
What he could not accept was that these people even took out their mobile phones to take pictures, which was unacceptable, that is, from this moment on bin Laden did not have a good feeling for the Americans, and in the successive US invasions in the Gulf region, it added to their disgust and hatred.
After the 9/11 incident, Americans hunted down bin Laden all over the world, perhaps realizing that they were not safe around him, and bin Laden finally allowed Naiwa to go out with his children and even live in safer places abroad.
So when bin Laden was killed in 2011, Naiva and the children weren't around Bin Laden at all.
Bin Laden's second wife, Khaticher, came from the Sharif family, a large Saudi family. The Hettich family is a prominent local family, and the ancestors are the famous prophet Muhammad, so Heticher received a good education from an early age and had a high status in society.
When Saudi women are unable to go out freely, Hettich can work and communicate as a teacher at a local school.
However, after marrying bin Laden, Hettich soon felt uncomfortable, as the wife of the world-renowned horror tycoon, she could no longer go out at will, nor could she continue to go out to work, and the personalities and thoughts of the two were also very different.
But bin Laden has always respected his wife, and even after Hettich filed for divorce, bin Laden reviewed his work and even tried to agree to Hettich's divorce request, but the two did not separate.
His third wife, Hariya, was carefully chosen for him by bin Laden's wife, Naiva, in order to increase political and new support for his cause.
After a while, Naiwa fell in love with Hariya, who was teaching at the School for the Deaf and Dumb, and she thought that Hariya was a very good candidate for sweet and lovely, and she was kind and kind, and soon Naiwa prepared a grand wedding for her husband and Hariya.
There is no definitive information on the story of Naiwa's husband, bin Laden, but one thing is certain, hariya has few children.
But it is the mother of the terror crown prince Hamui, who has to say that the mother is gentle and kind, and the son inherits the mantle of the father terrorist.
A year after marrying Hariya, bin Laden married Siham, a Saudi fighter, with a tenacious and courageous personality that was very different from a traditional Saudi woman, and had helped bin Laden a lot in his career, and it was reported that many of bin Laden's speeches were written by Siham.
And Siham was also the wife who accompanied bin Laden in his last moments. However, it was later reported that Siham was the one who betrayed bin Laden, had contacts with the Americans, and repeatedly provided intelligence to the Americans.
Even in the last assassination of bin Laden, it was reported that the American soldiers not only had the location and overall topographical distribution map of bin Laden's hiding place, but even detailed bin Laden's dress and dress that day, which showed that bin Laden did indeed have traitors around him.
According to American soldiers, when they rushed in and fired, Siham even blocked a shot for bin Laden, but it was not fatal. However, Hariya and Hettich believe that Seaham has always been suspicious, even saying that she is a U.S. spy, but there is no evidence to confirm this information.
The fifth wife, Amal, was bin Laden's youngest wife, whom bin Laden loved, and Amal gave birth to twins. She spent most of her time with bin Laden, and in the twelve years she married bin Laden, she returned to her mother's house only once.
However, it is also reported that Amal is not bin Laden's fifth wife, but one of his many lovers, and that bin Laden's fifth wife is a cousin of the Philippine rebel leader, but there is still no conclusive evidence to support it.
Relatives after bin Laden was killed
In fact, the Bin Laden family is a huge family, although the Bin Laden family has a "thriving" alternative like bin Laden, but there are also many normal life family members, they may have participated in bin Laden's actions, or know.
Or, as bin Laden's two mothers condemned the practice, but it is undeniable that the previous control of these families disappeared after bin Laden was killed, and the women regained the freedom to go out.
However, after bin Laden's death, the most famous women in the Bin Laden family were Bin Laden's sister-in-law Carmen and niece Wafah. Carmen's father, a Swiss, grew up educated and influenced by the West and lived a relatively free life until she married Osram, bin Laden's younger brother.
Although she and Islam were freely in love, this free life changed after marrying Isram.
Originally living in the United States, where the couple Islam and Carmen lived, they returned to Saudi Arabia under the family's arrangement, but soon after returning, Carmen became seriously uncomfortable with this life. Even at one point she was very depressed, and the rules of The Saudi woman were too many to go out and work at will, which made her very uncomfortable.
Later, according to Carmen, she met bin Laden three times during her stay in Riyadh, each time by chance, one of which was when Carmen heard the doorbell when he was at home, and it was Bin Laden who opened the door.
And bin Laden walked away without looking back after seeing it, which puzzled Carmen, even though she shouted from behind is that Islam was home, bin Laden still did not stop.
Later, her husband, Islam, explained that the reason bin Laden saw her and left was that Carmen was not wearing a veil, and that in their religion, men could not look directly at women other than their wives, mothers, and daughters, not even their sisters-in-law.
Carmen's memoir was published or was criticized and opposed by many Muslims, and some even claimed that Carmen was using bin Laden to make ill-gotten gains, but Carmen directly refuted this statement, believing that her actions were exposing to the world how difficult it was for the women of the Bin Laden family to live.
I hope that the world will not look at them with strange eyes, because they are also normal people and oppose terrorist attacks.
Muslims
In addition to Carmen, Carmen and Islam's daughter Wafakh also has a relatively high popularity, perhaps she is the most well-known person in the eyes of the Bin Laden family in the public eye, Wafah once went to the United States to live, and even dabbled in the show business, during which he also made a movie and did a reality show, but all of them reflected flat, and the American people did not buy it.
Wafah
In the end, Wafah took a different path and became a model with his good figure and appearance, which caused repercussions among the people, gained a large number of fans, and now has the popularity. In 2018, Wafah got married in New York and held a grand wedding, many members of the Bin Laden family attended the wedding, and also gave Wafah a lot of valuable jewelry and gifts.
epilogue
The Bin Laden family, a large Saudi family, still has a wide influence in the region today, and their business spread across various Saudi industries, and bin Laden was not greatly affected after his death. Perhaps people have long learned to stay sober and sane, to understand that people are different from each other, and many of bin Laden's family members are innocent.
