On 16 December 2013, he appeared in a video titled Revealing the biggest conspiracy targeting the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, in which he announced that he had joined the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant.[3]
The degree to which his decision to join ISIL was voluntary is disputed. Some characterize his defection as a form of "surrender" to ISIL after two of his brothers were abducted, his brother's house was bombed, and several of his combatants were killed. During this period, Jamal narrowly evaded an assassination attempt when a man detonated himself at his headquarters. Jamal established a state bank branch.
From 2014 onwards, he served as the ISIL emir for Abu Kamal, Syria, which is his hometown.[4]
In September 2015, he was reportedly appointed as a deputy to Abu Firas al-Iraqi, the governor of the ISIL Euphrates province located on the border between Iraq and Syria.
Saddam al-Jamal and four other commanders were apprehended by Iraqi forces on 9 May 2018 on the Syria-Iraq border.[5]
