ahmed bin abdullah al-nami -lrb- arabic : أحمد بن عبد الله النعمي , ; also transliterated as alnami ; august 17 , 1977 -- september 11 , 2001 -rrb- was one of four hijackers of united airlines flight 93 as part of the september 11 attacks .
born in saudi arabia , nami had served as a muezzin and was a college student .
he left his family in 2000 to complete the hajj , but later went to afghanistan bound for an al-qaeda training camp where he befriended other future hijackers and would soon be chosen to participate in the attacks .
he arrived in the united states in may 2001 , on a tourist visa , where he would settle in florida up until the attacks .
on september 11 , 2001 , nami boarded united 93 and assisted in the hijacking of the plane , which crashed into a field in rural shanksville , pennsylvania , after a passenger uprising , due to the passengers receiving information from their families of the 3 other hijacked planes that hit the world trade center and the pentagon .
