Ziad Samir Jarrah (Arabic: زياد سمير جراح; 11 May 1975 – 11 September 2001) was a Lebanese aerospace engineer and terrorist hijacker for al-Qaeda. He was the hijacker-pilot of United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed into a rural area near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, as part of the September 11 attacks. He was born in Beirut to a secular, wealthy and respected Arab family. He completed his early education at Lebanon's prestigious French-speaking Christian schools. In 1996, at the age of 21, he moved to Germany to pursue his university education. He continued his secular life, far removed from religious devotion, even in his early university years. While studying aerospace engineering at Hamburg University of Applied Sciences, he met Mohamed Atta and Marwan al-Shehhi. Between 1997 and 1998, he began to grow closer to religion. He quit drinking alcohol and smoking, and began salah and reading the Quran. He was influenced by the verses on jihad in the Quran and believed that only martyrdom could erase the sins he had committed in the past. Later, Ramzi bin al-Shibh, an al-Qaeda communications officer, met these three university students and founded the group known as the Hamburg cell with them. In 1999, bin al-Shibh took him and his two other school friends, Atta and al-Shehhi, to Afghanistan to meet Osama bin Laden. In June 2000, he flew to New Jersey, United States. Shortly thereafter, he moved from New Jersey to Venice, Florida and trained with flight instructors Rudi Dekkers at Huffman Aviation alongside Atta and al-Shehhi until January 2001. On 7 September 2001, he arrived in Newark, New Jersey from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Four days later, he boarded United Airlines Flight 93 and hijacked the plane along with Saeed al-Ghamdi, Ahmed al-Haznawi, and Ahmed al-Nami. They attempted to crash the plane into the United States Capitol Building or the White House. However, Jarrah, who noticed that the passengers had become aware of the other three attacks and were trying to force open the cockpit door, rocked the plane several times from side to side to throw them off balance and consulted with his accomplices. It was 9:45 a.m., and when Jarrah realized they would not achieve their goals, he whispered the Shahada: "There is no god but Allah; Muhammad is the messenger of Allah." He did not surrender control to the passengers and crashed the plane into a field in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, at around 10:03 a.m. Seconds before the plane crashed, Jarrah's last words, "Allahu Akbar" (repeated many times), were recorded on the CVR. According to the 9/11 Commission Report and Aysel Şengün's (his girlfriend) statements to German police, Jarrah spoke at least four languages at a high level: Arabic, French, German, and English.
