How is the relationship with the "Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant" (ISIL)?
Okaidi: It's good! My relationship with the brothers in ISIL is good.
Reporter: Do you communicate with them?
Okaidi: Yes, of course. I communicate almost daily with brothers in ISIL to settle these disputes and issues. The issues are being overinflated by the media. There's a lot of spotlight being put on the issue of the ISIL"that they are Takfiris, etc"
Perhaps it's individual mistakes, however, when we sit down together with their leaders, they don't have this ideology. And the relationship is good, even brotherly. However, in some of their behaviors on the ground, there are mistakes.
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
Praise be to Allah, we thank everyone.
We thank Allah (SWT), and we bring good news to our people in Syria and to our Muslim people in all the world that Allah has been generous with us during this blessed month (Ramadan). With this great victory, after we achieved victory in Khan Al Assal and now in Menagh military airbase, which got liberated at the hands of these heroes Allahu Akbar ( Allah is greater) and praise be to Allah. Takbir (glorify Allah) Allahu Akbar!
