The 26-year-old fled her home in Birmingham in October 2014, telling her family she had booked a holiday.
Instead, she took her baby son to Raqqa, the de facto capital of the terror network.
She was found guilty last week and is believed to be the first British woman to stand trial accused of joining IS in Syria.
The judge - during sentencing today in Birmingham - said she had told "lie after lie" with no signs of remorse.
He also described as "abhorrent" pictures of Shakil's baby son with weapons and wearing an IS balaclava.
"You told your father you wanted to die as a martyr ... no doubt because of your mindset you were embraced by ISIS," said Judge Inman.
"Your role [in Raqqa] would not be to fight but to be a wife and mother to produce the next generation of fighters," he told the 26-year-old.
Shakil had denied joining IS and encouraging support for IS on her Facebook and Twitter accounts.
She said she "had made a mistake" travelling to Syria, but had done so simply to find a better life for her and her son.
Shakil's father reacted angrily outside court, pretending to punch a cameraman and shouting that he hoped no other woman would come back "to face this kind of b*******".
