CNN: Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi purportedly releases message saying ISIS losses are test from Allah

(CNN)For the first time in almost a year, ISIS has released what it says is a new audio message from its leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

In the message, the man on the recording admits that ISIS groups are losing and that it is a test from Allah, saying they need to stick together.

The man says his followers are being tested with "fear and hunger" but says "glad tidings" will be given to those who "patiently persevere."
The audio message was published by ISIS media wing al-Furqan on Wednesday.

CNN cannot independently confirm the voice on the recording is that of al-Baghdadi.

No. .he just got wounded badly and burned like a toast..not a very inspiring sight to see the "leader" of your "caliphate" look like that. Audio books are a good way to entice the dumbest of the dumb still into fighting for your sick and twisted cause

Nothing is impossible for the man who doesn't have to do it.
New name: ol' ash face.
At least he's honest when he says "we're losing". Did anyone hear him say allah wasn't willing. Again?
