In this work, I would like to send Osama bin Laden to hell for what he has caused to the people of different nationalities. To start with his life profile, Osama bin Laden was born in Saudi Arabia around 1957. It is said that Osama’s father Muhammed bin Laden a rich entrepreneur, had some kinship ties with the Saudi noble family therefore he was born from a noble background.
As a matter of fact, Osama was born the only son of Muhhamed bin Laden’s twentieth wife; before his parents divorced and his mother married another man. After this incident, he lived with his stepfather, three half-brothers, and a half-sister. Basing on his life profile, Osama was highly religious and graduated from King Abdulaziz University where he pursued a degree in public administration. As a result of his religious affiliations, he was interpreting the Quran and Jihad as well as writing poetry during his school time. Surprisingly enough, Osama married his first wife Najwa Ghanem at the age of seventeen and by the year 2002, he had four wives and approximately 25-26 children. On the other hand, he believed in sharia law to put things right within the Muslim world, while on the other hand strongly discouraging socialism, communism and democracy.
In addition, Osama bin Laden is known as the founding member of the terrorist gang known as al-Qaeda, which attacked the United States on September 11, 2001. As a result of this suicidal attack, Osama had been a target for the American’s list of the ‘FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives’. Based on this, Osama had been hiding where he is believed to be hiding at the boundary of Afghanistan and Pakistan.
As far as I am concerned, Osama bin Laden needs to be taken to hell because of his evil deeds which have caused the death of many innocent people. It is argued that the first bombing activity which Osama engaged in, was the striking of ‘Gold Mihor Hotel’ located in Aden, which resulted in the death of two people in 1992. It is clearly indicated that on March 10, 1994, Osama together with three other people killed two German citizens which made the Libyan government issue an international statement on an arrest warrant against him. Additionally, Osama bombed a US-operated ‘Saudi National Guard training centre’ in 1998 which is situated in Saudi Arabia, killing five Americans and two Indians.
Apart from these attacks, Osama is believed to be the main financial sponsor of the international Islamic terrorists. Further, Osama as the al-Qaeda leader was responsible for the attacks on the Kenyan and Tanzanian American embassies offices in August 1998. From these attacks, it is believed that a large number of people lost their lives. Based on this, Osama planned the most recent al-Qaeda attack on September 11, 2001, targeting Washington D.C, which led to the death of many people. In this case, Osama justified his killing of innocent people by relating his deeds to the fatwa which was given by Mamdouh Salim; where rewards are given through death. According to the fatwa, one goes to heaven or hell depending on his deeds; were murdering an innocent individual standing close to the enemy is not wrong.
If I were to be in hell when he gets there or would also retrieve him from wherever he is and take him to hell; I will have no option rather than to have him punished severely. Basing on the criminal acts carried out by him; he deserves to die but in order to make him feel the pain of the wrongs he committed, I would instead punish him. As for his punishment, he should have his two hands and legs chopped off using the most painful cutting mode, like the use of a saw. This phase of the punishment would be useful in making him feel the pain, which he caused to the people some of whom died under his cruelty. After having his hands and legs cut off, he will be helpless and incapable of hurting any other person or thing. As a move to help heal the pain he caused on people whose friends and families died in his hands; I would also drill out his eyes so that he would not be able to see his surroundings and people again.
After all, these are done to him, I would also have him hanged upside down at a publicly open place; denied food and water, but instead forced to drink the most poisonous corrosive fluid, till he becomes fully unconscious. In another phase of his punishment, I would have the people who experienced his cruelty punish him; in any way, they would deem fit. In this case, since he is hanged at a public place I would have him stoned, canned and speared. In this way, the information about his punishment would spread to too many people, who would also come to see and torture the murderer in him. By doing this, Osama would feel pain and regret killing innocent people.
On the other hand, it would be satisfying if Osama’s eyes are drilled out; he is skinned alive and corrosive liquids poured on his sore body, just to give him a test of what it is like to die. After this, he may also be tied and hanged upside-down leaving him to be pecked by the birds of the air till eternity.
