Syrian ?
[edit]its known that Al-Attas family are from Yemeni origin ! Ammar 18:28, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
- According to the Osama bin Laden article, "al-Attas" was not her maiden name, but the name of her second husband Muhammad al-Attas. Al-Attas was an employee of the bin Laden company (presumably in Saudi Arabia?) so there is no conflict with her being Syrian and the al-Attas family being Yemeni. --Saforrest 05:01, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
- According to Jonathan Randal's book Osama: The Making of a Terrorist, her second husband's family is related to the former foreign secretary of Indonesia, Ali Alatas. Is this something verified by others? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.229.146.78 (talk) 09:05, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

A photo?
[edit]Is the Guardian interview one copywrited? Perhaps use a stock one from the BBC or somewhere similar? Naihreloe (talk) 09:18, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
Birth date
[edit]An interview from 2018 in the Guardian said she was in her mid-70s? Is this correct? [1]
- Peter Bergen's The Rise and fall of Osama bin Laden states in the family tree that she was born in 1943, which would make her 75 in that interview. I'll change the dates mentioned in the article. INDT (talk) 16:13, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
