“Prosecutors have said he told investigators his ‘mission was to kill and be killed.'”


Where did he get the idea for such a mission? Could it have been from the Qur’an?



“Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties, for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed.” (9:111)
