Not all assessments of Rashid were so kind, and Ra'ad al-Hamdani refers to him as "one of the dumbest generals in the army".[4] Iran–Iraq WarHigh Iraqi losses during the conflict[4] nearly led to a mutiny led by Rashid, father-in-law of Hussein's second son.[5] Rashid began by public criticizing Saddam Hussein, and claimed that many of Iraq's casualties were caused by Saddam's meddling into military affairs.[6] Saddam ordered him back to Baghdad due to both his public criticism and his failure to remove the Iranians from the al-Faw peninsula. Aware that an order to return to Baghdad was probably a death sentence for Rashid, his officers warned Saddam that if anything were to happen to Rashid they would mutiny.[7] This confrontation with the military led to the greater independence of military planning from Ba'athist-leadership interference. Shortly afterwards, the Iraqi Air Force once again established air superiority.[8] Despite this, Rashid was placed under house arrest following the end of the Iran-Iraq war in an effort to reduce the power of Generals who had become influential during the war years in order to prevent any possible coup attempts from forming.[1][9] 1991 UprisingsFollowing the Gulf War Iraq experienced a wave of uprisings and Saddam called on Rashid to help put down the uprising against the Ba'athist government.[10] Iraq War & AftermathRashid was given command by Saddam over the Iraqi Armed Forces's Southern Command in the run up to the 2003 Invasion of Iraq. Saddam also appointed him as the General Supervisor for the Iraqi Army's 3rd, 4th, and 7th Corps. After the fall of the Iraqi government Rashid disappeared, before being arrested in July 2003 in Tikrit. He spent the next five years in prison.[13] During his time in prison several of his relatives were either killed or kidnapped. His son Ali Maher Abdul Rashid was killed on 23 July 2003 in a firefight with US Forces.[11] Another son, Abdullah Maher Abdul Rashid, and Rashid's nephew, Marwan Taher Abdul Rashid, were arrested in Tikrit on 8 March 2005 following a tip off from residents. Rashid was believed to have received large sums of money from his former son-in-law Qusay Hussein which were being used to fund the insurgency.[12] Following Rashid's release in 2008 Rashid returned to Tikrit, and lived in his farm near Tikrit.[13] DeathRashid died on 29 June 2014 in hospital in the city of Sulaymaniyah in Iraq, two months after having suffered a stroke. Rashid had also been suffering from a long-standing illness. He was survived by his family, including his two grandsons, Yahya Qusay Saddam al-Tikriti and Yaqub Qusay Saddam al-Tikriti; who were also the surviving children of Qusay Hussein.[13] Personal lifeRashid was a Sunni Muslim from Tikrit, and was both a close friend of Saddam Hussein and also a member of the same tribe; the Al-Bu Nasir tribe.[1][14] In 1985 his daughter, Sahar, married Saddam Hussein's son Qusay. Rashid had promised to liberate the al-Fao peninsula in the Iran-Iraq war and had offered his daughter to Saddam's son Qusay to show his certainty.[15] They had three children but later divorced.[16] References1. ^1 2 {{cite news |url=http://www.brookings.edu/research/papers/2003/07/08iraq-baram |title=The Iraqi Tribes and the Post-Saddam System |publisher=Brookings | date=8 July 2003}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Rashid, Maher Abd al-}}2. ^Karsh, Efraim The Iran-Iraq War 1980–1988, London: Osprey, 2002 page 48 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://voices.yahoo.com/gulf-war-iran-iraq-war-iraqi-reaction-2708229.html |title=Gulf War - Iran Iraq War: Iraqi Reaction |publisher=Yahoo |date=2 March 2009 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://archive.is/20130210043705/http://voices.yahoo.com/gulf-war-iran-iraq-war-iraqi-reaction-2708229.html |archivedate=10 February 2013 |df= }} 4. ^{{cite book | author-link = Con Coughlin|author = Coughlin, Con | pages = 209/218–219 | title = Saddam: His Rise and Fall | location = | publisher = Harper Perennial | year = 2005 | isbn = 978-0-06-050543-1}} 5. ^{{cite book | author-link = Con Coughlin|author = Coughlin, Con | page = 219 | title = Saddam: His Rise and Fall | location = | publisher = Harper Perennial | year = 2005 | isbn = 978-0-06-050543-1}} 6. ^{{cite book | author-link = Con Coughlin|author = Coughlin, Con | page = 220 | title = Saddam: His Rise and Fall | location = | publisher = Harper Perennial | year = 2005 | isbn = 978-0-06-050543-1}} 7. ^Karsh, Efraim The Iran-Iraq War 1980–1988, London: Osprey, 2002 page 53 8. ^{{cite book | author-link = Charles R.
