6. This seems very possible, unfortunately. At the very least she was as crazy as he was.

She's Pakistani. He's of Pakistani descent. There's a whole lot of religious crazy in Pakistan and then she went to Saudi Arabia the homeland of Jihadi insanity.

His increasing religiosity seems to coincide with his marriage to her. According to the Imam, she attended the mosque he frequented just once, wearing full niqab. Perhaps she found their conservative but more mainstream version of Islam not to her liking. Eventually he too stopped attending.

Did they radicalize each other? Did she radicalize him? Do we have to worry about Jihadi women lurking on Muslim lonely hearts sites to lure confused westernized Muslim men.
