Known also as: Abdulrahman Al Rawi; Abd-al-Rahman Al-Rawi; Abdul Rahman Al-Rawi; Abu Abd Al Rahman Al-Rawi.
He and Umar Talib Zughayr al-Rawi, were selected to manage the financial affairs for ISIS’s so-called province, or Wilayah, of al-Furat after the death in a Coalition airstrike in 2017 of Fawaz Muhammad Jubayr al-Rawi, who was a Syrian terrorist financial facilitator who moved millions of dollars for ISIS’s attack and logistics networks.
Umar, Abd al-Rahman, and Mushtaq Talib Zughayr al-Rawi were all business partners with Fawaz. An exploitation of financial records associated with Mushtaq revealed a history of direct money transfers to support Islamic State provincial leaders through Al-Ard Al-Jadidah Money Exchange Company.
From the designation:
As of September 2018, both Istanbul, Turkey-based Syrian national Abd-alRahman and an Idlib Province, Syria-based Syrian hawaladar had allegedly established a secret partnership with two Syria-based Iraqi brothers to facilitate financial transfers into Syria on behalf of Islamic State via hawala networks.
Both the Syria-based hawaladar and Abd-al-Rahman conducted a large volume of legitimate business through their companies. However, they also moved money for Islamic State in secret.
As of late 2017, a Turkey-based merchant, who was one of the primary ISIS financial facilitators in Syria, maintained a business partnership with Islamic State financier Abd-al-Rahman. Abd-al-Rahman was one of a few individuals who provided Islamic State significant financial facilitation into and out of Syria.
Abd-al-Rahman instructed Islamic State fighters seeking to move large sums of money out of Syria to deposit the money with an office in Syria.
Furthermore, when individuals wanted to send money from Turkey to Islamic State members in Syria, the instructions involved Abd-alRahman’s.
Abd-al-Rahman had a hard-currency liquidity of several million dollars in Syria. He served as Islamic State’s general financial manager, and prior to his relocation to Turkey, he traveled around Syria on behalf of the group.
As of late October 2017, Abd-al-Rahman allegedly continued conducting financial transactions on behalf of Islamic State.
As of mid-November 2017, Abd-alRahman maintained a close and continuing partnership with an unidentified merchant, moving large sums of money on behalf of Islamic State.
Abd-al-Rahman was so influential within Islamic State that he had the capacity to reduce a death sentence into a short prison term.
As of late 2017, Abd-al-Rahman and his business partner and cousin, Umar, had been selected to manage financial affairs for Islamic State’s Wilayah al-Furat following the death of Fawaz al-Rawi.
As of late 2017, both Abd-al-Rahman and Umar, who had been partners in a currency exchange company in al-Qa’im, Anbar Province, Iraq, with Fawaz al-Rawi, had formally accepted their appointments.
Abd-al-Rahman was responsible for external Islamic State money transfer originating from and destined to foreign countries.
Abd-al-Rahman entered into a secret business relationship with a Turkey-based individual who specialized in conducting large-sum hawala transfers from the Gulf, including funds intended for Islamic State. This individual facilitated a $250,000 hawala transfer to Abd-al-Rahman.
