Zeinab Noun said her 20-year-old son, Abbas Medlej, was "sacrificed" after supporters of the militant Sunni group posted images appearing to show a captured Lebanese soldier before and after he was beheaded.
"My son was sacrificed," said Noun, clutching a passport-sized photo of her son, a handsome, smooth-faced young man.
Medlej hailed from a large Shiite clan from the eastern Lebanese city of Baalbak. His mother vowed revenge on rival Sunnis. "We have to take our revenge from those apostates," she said.
The captured soldiers and police are from Lebanon's many religious sects: the first soldier beheaded by the group, Ali Sayid, was a Sunni Muslim. The militants are also holding Christian soldiers and other Sunni Muslims.
