UK mother Tareena Shakil, who took her toddler son to Syria, has been found guilty of membership of the so-called Daesh, the BBC reported on Friday.
The 26-year-old is the first British woman to return from the self-declared caliphate to be convicted of the offense.
Shakil, of Birmingham, has also been found guilty of encouraging acts of terrorism through messages posted on Twitter. She denied the charges.
She had admitted traveling to Syria.
But following a two-week trial at Birmingham Crown Court, the jury rejected her claim that she had only wished to live under Sharia law.
