On September 20 Sputnik Arabic filmed Abu Shujaa and Um Ali, who had been kept as a slave by the terror group, and her emotional reunion with her family in the region of Sinjar.
Um Ali was abducted by Daesh after its capture of Sinjar. The terrorists forced her to work as a sex slave, and cook and clean for them.
Abu Shujaa told Sputnik Arabic that Um Ali has five children, but only four have been released. Her son and husband remain in Daesh captivity in the Syrian city of Deir-Ez-Zor.
After her release, she will receive counselling to help her to cope with her traumatic experiences.

Abu Shujaa told Sputnik that working to release prisoners from terrorists is "a matter of honor and dignity," and that more than 2,000 Yazidi women and children kept prisoner by Daesh have been released.
The Daesh terrorist group began its assault on the predominantly Yazidi town of Sinjar on August 3 2014. After taking control of the town and the surrounding areas, Daesh terrorists massacred 5,000 Yazidi men and took thousands of people hostage.
More than 40,000 Yazidis were forced to flee to the Sinjar mountains, where they were surrounded by Daesh forces and dependent on helicopter drops of food and water.
Last month the UN reported that two years since the massacre, more than 3,200 women and children are still held by the group and being subjected to almost-unimaginable violence.
"Now we're living in a camp, but we are like living dead, because all our relatives are in different places. Some are in Iraq, some had to flee to Europe or other countries. The Iraqi and Kurdish governments are not thinking about us. When the mass killings started, the whole world defended us. Now they have forgotten about us," Yazidi refugee Rosa Muhamed told Sputnik.
