From 9/11 Encyclopedia:
In August 2001, Mohammad
Atta, as reported, received $100000 from an "unknown source" at
the Pakistan Secret Service ISI.
This was the reason, why former chief Massoud later had to
resign.
On the same day the United States started their retaliation against
Iraq.
As later was revealed, the unknown source used at least two
aliases: Mustapha Ahmad Al-Hawsawi aka
Shaikh Saeed (->).

One of the earliest versions of this story was released on
September 30, 2001,
by Brian Ross reporting on information conveyed to him by the FBI,
ABC News.
Less than two weeks later, the findings of the FBI were confirmed
by Agence France Presse (AFP)
and the Times of India, quoting an official Indian intelligence
report (which had been dispatched to Washington).
According to these two reports, the money used to finance the
9-11 attacks
had allegedly been "wired to WTC hijacker Mohammed Atta from
Pakistan,
by Ahmad Umar Sheikh, at the instance of [ISI Chief] General
Mahmoud Ahmad."
According to the AFP (quoting the intelligence
source):
"The evidence we have supplied to the U.S. is of a
much wider range and depth than just one piece of paper
linking
a rogue general to some misplaced act of
terrorism."
