Fared also known as, Abu Luqmaan Al-Almani is an Islamic State facilitator, recruiter, and fighter, and has been a member of the terrorist organization since at least 2014.

After joining the Islamic State, Saal recruited potential ISIS members and facilitated their travel to Syria by providing them with specific contacts to reach out to once they arrived at the airport in Istanbul.

The contacts would then help facilitate the recruits’ onward travel to the Turkish/Syrian border.

In December 2014, Saal facilitated the travel of two Austrian minors from Austria to Syria.

However, they were stopped and detained while in transit. As of March 2015, he also served as a point of contact for Islamic State fighters seeking specialized training.

In addition to his facilitation and recruitment activities, he has served as an Islamic State fighter. As of March 2016, Saal held a leadership position in an Islamic State battalion.

Saal also appeared in an Islamic State propaganda video depicting the aftermath of a July 2014 Islamic State attack on the Al-Shaar gas field in Syria alongside Denis Cuspert, a foreign terrorist fighter and operative for Islamic State, who was designated on February 9, 2015.
