“Islam preaches freedom to slaves, not slavery. Slavery was the status quo when Islam came around. Judaism, Christianity, Greek, Roman, and Persian civilizations all practiced it and took the females of their enemies as sex slaves. So Islam found this abhorrent practise and worked to gradually remove it.”
“Judaism, Christianity, Greek, Roman, and Persian civilizations all practiced it and took the females of their enemies as sex slaves.” Even if that were true, and it certainly is not, the Qur’an is the only holy book of a major religion that sanctions the taking of sex slaves (4:3, 4:24, 23:1-6, 33:50). This al-Azhar professor is simply trying to obscure that fact, even as a Muslim group (not a Jewish, Christian, Greek, Roman or Persian one) has reintroduced the practice in the modern world precisely because it has Qur’anic sanction.
“In September 2014 more than 120 Islamic scholars from around the world issued an open letter to IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi refuting the group’s religious arguments to justify many of its actions. The scholars noted that the ‘reintroduction of slavery is forbidden in Islam.'” That letter also was a cynical and deceptive exercise, as I explained in detail here and in summary form here.
“Exclusive – Islamic State ruling aims to settle who can have sex with female slaves,” by Jonathan Landay, Warren Strobel, and Phil Stewart, Reuters, December 29, 2015:
Islamic State theologians have issued an extremely detailed ruling on when “owners” of women enslaved by the extremist group can have sex with them, in an apparent bid to curb what they called violations in the treatment of captured females.
The ruling or fatwa has the force of law and appears to go beyond the Islamic State’s previous known utterances on slavery, a leading Islamic State scholar said. It sheds new light on how the group is trying to reinterpret centuries-old teachings to justify the rape of women in the swaths of Syria and Iraq it controls.
For a U.S. government translation of the fatwa click here.
The fatwa was among a huge trove of documents captured by U.S. Special Operations Forces during a raid targeting a top Islamic State official in Syria in May. Reuters has reviewed the document, which has not been previously published, but couldn’t independently confirm its authenticity.
Among the fatwa’s injunctions are bans on a father and son having sex with the same female slave; and the owner of a mother and daughter having sex with both. Joint owners of a female captive are similarly enjoined from intercourse because she is viewed as “part of a joint ownership.”
The United Nations and human rights groups have accused the Islamic State of the systematic abduction and rape of thousands of women and girls as young as 12, especially members of the Yazidi minority in northern Iraq. Many have been given to fighters as a reward or sold as sex slaves.
Far from trying to conceal the practice, Islamic State has boasted about it and established a department of “war spoils” to manage slavery. Reuters reported on the existence of the department on Monday.
In an April report, Human Rights Watch interviewed 20 female escapees who recounted how Islamic State fighters separated young women and girls from men and boys and older women. They were moved “in an organised and methodical fashion to various places in Iraq and Syria.” They were then sold or given as gifts and repeatedly raped or subjected to sexual violence.
Fatwa No. 64, dated Jan. 29, 2015, and issued by Islamic State’s Committee of Research and Fatwas, appears to codify sexual relations between IS fighters and their female captives for the first time, going further than a pamphlet issued by the group in 2014 on how to treat slaves.
The fatwa starts with a question: “Some of the brothers have committed violations in the matter of the treatment of the female slaves. These violations are not permitted by Sharia law because these rules have not been dealt with in ages. Are there any warnings pertaining to this matter?”
It then lists 15 injunctions, which in some instances go into explicit detail. For example:
“If the owner of a female captive, who has a daughter suitable for intercourse, has sexual relations with the latter, he is not permitted to have intercourse with her mother and she is permanently off limits to him. Should he have intercourse with her mother then he is not permitted to have intercourse with her daughter and she is to be off limits to him.”
Islamic State’s rape of female captives has been well documented, but a leading IS expert at Princeton University, Cole Bunzel, who has reviewed many of the group’s writings, said the fatwa went beyond what has previously been published by the militants on how to treat female slaves.
“It reveals the actual concerns of IS slave owners,” he said in an email.
Still, he cautioned that not “everything dealt with in the fatwa is indicative of a relevant violation. It doesn’t mean father and son were necessarily sharing a girl. They’re at least being ‘warned’ not to. But I bet some of these violations were being committed.”
The fatwa also instructs owners of female slaves to “show compassion towards her, be kind to her, not humiliate her, and not assign her work she is unable to perform.” An owner should also not sell her to an individual whom he knows will mistreat her.
Professor Abdel Fattah Alawari, dean of Islamic Theology at Al-Azhar University, a 1,000-year-old Egyptian center for Islamic learning, said Islamic State “has nothing to do with Islam” and was deliberately misreading centuries-old verses and sayings that were originally designed to end, rather than encourage, slavery.
“Islam preaches freedom to slaves, not slavery. Slavery was the status quo when Islam came around,” he said. “Judaism, Christianity, Greek, Roman, and Persian civilizations all practiced it and took the females of their enemies as sex slaves. So Islam found this abhorrent practise and worked to gradually remove it.”
In September 2014 more than 120 Islamic scholars from around the world issued an open letter to IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi refuting the group’s religious arguments to justify many of its actions. The scholars noted that the “reintroduction of slavery is forbidden in Islam.”

Bukkdem Jizheads says
There is a constant need for sex slaves in a polygamous society. Under monogamy, a few ugly losers might not find a wife, but under polygamy, the majority of young men can’t get a wife unless they take her by force from another place. Or, you can always blow yourself up for 72 virgins.
Religion may have nothing to do with it. Maybe family structure is the penultimate influence. The FLDS in Eldorado Texas compound devolved in just 3 or 4 generations of polygamy with 3 wives allowed. Child brides, inbreeding, wife-beating and dumping extra boys ( Lost Boys) were the natural outcome. Xenophobia and poverty also resulted.
Mohammed encouraged his “extra” men, who were cheated out of wives due to polygamy, to raid other villages for women, and this 1300 year practice endures even today. In fact, it’s a great way to build an army, spread your influence, loot, pillage and take women as slaves. Yet, it builds no wealth, even though 3 continents were looted. The Ottoman’s Topkapi palace has only a paltry collection of jewels in contrast to unfathomable art and wealth in the Vatican.
Carolyne says
May I remind you, Mr. Jizhead, that this is the 21st Century, not the Seventh, and only Muslim nations still legally have slaves. While it is true that some members of the LDS hold women in bondage (Polygamy) it is illegal in all states of the US and they are violating the law. Islam most certainly has something “To do with it,” (Sex slavery) as the rules for sex slaves are clearly given by Mohammed in the Koran and ISIS is using those verses to legitimately promote it as part of Islam.
As to building no wealth, ISIS each day builds more wealth by war and the sex slaves are not worthless entities, but are openly sold in slave markets. While it is true that most of the women bring no jewels, it is the nature of Islam to keep its common adherent poor while the wealth is accumulated by the Caliphate. Having visited both Topkapi and the Vatican, I agree with you about the wealth of the Vatican, but a different kind of wealth, a wealth which IMO should not be held by an organization which calls itself “Godly.

David Severy says
Almost “who cares?” Islam is a satanically driven political/religious system and is of no moral or eternal benefit to any of it’s followers. It is a “phenomenon” JUSTLY repudiated by faith in the Messiah Jesus. That is the top and bottom line… and every line in between! 1John 5:19
gravenimage says
Why wouldn’t you care, David? These sex slaves are Christian and Yezidi women and girls.
*I* care about these innocent victims of Islam even if you don’t–I’m sure most people here care very much.
And if you care nothing for these victims, keep *this* in mind–pious Muslims want to murder you and enslave your wife, your mother, your sisters, and your daughters.
خَليفة says
There should be a universal punishment for those engaged is slavery – owning slaves, buying, selling, grooming, capturing etc.. And that punishment should be death. You deal in any part of slaved trade or human trafficking, you die. If such laws were made and applied slavery and human trafficking would end.
Jay Boo says
The real problem is not these individual foot soldiers of Islam.

Muhammad had a dream called Allah.
Muhammad recreated Allah in his own image.

Yes, all of those pig references are, IMO, true.
Peter says
“Islam … worked to gradually remove it [slavery].” That must explain why Saudi Arabia banned slavery in 1962 (under pressure from President Kennedy), the Meccan slave market (largely for black African slaves) was closed in the 19th century by Ottoman (European-influenced) reforms, and slavery is still practiced in Mauritania, Mali. The Islamic slavery impulse will never go away; it is rooted in core doctrines of the supremacist, totalitarian, and predatory faith.
Jay Boo says
Islam is such a nasty disgrace to humanity.
Is it too much to ask that Muslims at least bow their heads in shame?

Carolyne says
The UN is run basically by Muslim nations and is absolutely worthless. IMO it should be moved to Saudi Arabia.
mortimer says
Bottom line:
Islam is the only religion with rules for rape…thus, rape is a lawful activity in Islam.
A large part of Sharia law is devoted to the rules regarding slavery…thus, slavery is considered a very IMPORTANT part of Islam.
Islam means ‘submission’ and no one is a submitted as a slave…thus, Islam means ‘slavery’.
Mahmoud says
You’re wrong. Similar rules are found in other religions.
“And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? … Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.” — Numbers 31:15-18
“If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found; Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel’s father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days.” — Deuteronomy 22:28-29
And this idea that a woman should be forced to marry her rapist is also prevalent in hindu culture.
eduardo odraude says
Many a horse is brown. So is many an insect. That doesn’t mean horses and insects are the same thing. It is meaningless to point only to some minor similarities. You have to notice differences as well if you want to stay truthful. For example:
Moses lived perhaps 3500 years ago. It has been eons since the Jews took slaves. Muslims are still at it today in a number of nations. Nor are the Jews engaged in militant jihad all over the world in an effort to spread Jewish law everywhere. Hindus do not have jihad either, nor do they seek to impose Hindu law on non-Hindus around the globe. Nor do Christians have jihad to establish Christian law. Meanwhile Islamic jihad remains even today bound up with taking slaves in several nations. Christians by the way were the source of the world’s first slavery abolition movement. Muslims carried on the African slave trade longer than Europeans and Americans did, and took more slaves than they did. African slaves in the Islamic world left few descendants there, because they were brutally castrated and could not reproduce. The castration process killed about 9 in 10 of them. Muslims also took by some counts more than a million European slaves.
Clearly, there is something distinctly brutal and pathological about Islamic doctrine. I invite you, Mahmoud, to abandon a false and peculiarly totalitarian teaching, and join humanity. The world needs ex-Muslims.
Mahmoud says
As a matter of fact, I am already an ex-muslim. My point is that islam is not a particularily vile religion, and this focus on islamic doctrine is misguided. It leads to one-sided views of various conflicts around the world involving muslims, which in turn leads to misguided policies if your views were adapted by decision makers.
It is probably correct that muslims to a larger degree are carrying out atrocitites with reference to their religion, but your insistence that this is because of certain verses in the Qur’an is completely wrong. I don’t care what people believe about islam, but I do care about the consequence of that belief. And those consequences are wrong policies and increasing victimization of muslims in western societites.
eduardo odraude says
Mahmoud,
Glad you are an ex-Muslim, but you are mistaken.
I don’t insist that the global atrocities of jihad are “because of certain verses in the Qur’an.” Jihad arises out of the trilogy of core Islamic texts — Qur’an, canonical Hadith collections, and earliest Muslim biographies of Muhammad — the Sira — which together promulgate a violent, expansionist totalitarian doctrine. To see some of the atrocity-producing core Islamic texts I have in mind, all of them linked to university database and to the earliest Muslim biography of Muhammad, check quotingislam.blogspot.com.
A thousand years ago mainstream Islam came to forbid independent reason except within the boundaries set down by the core texts. That does not mean no Muslim ever again reasoned in conflict with the core texts. I am speaking of what mainstream religious/political authorities have mainly inculcated as religious doctrine into mainstream Muslim populations for centuries. The prohibition of independent reason in much of mainstream Islam necessarily meant the suppression of independent moral conscience. The result is that whatever Muhammad did as recorded in the core Islamic texts, that becomes the definition of “moral” by the mainstream of Muslim scholars of Islam, unless Muhammad or “Allah” themselves later criticized the action. Most Muslims do not believe it is permissible to morally criticize the actions and statements of Muhammad, even if he committed what those exercising independent moral conscience would deem horrific atrocities. Jihad arises because Muhammad, the prime exemplar for Muslims, united religion and state in his own person, so there is no conception of a separation of religion and state within mainstream Islamic theology, and therefore Islamic law is to be imposed on non-Muslims by force, wherever and whenever Muslims are strong enough. When Muslims are not strong enough, they imitate Muhammad when he was weak, and speak for religious tolerance.
The condition of Islamic nations in terms of human rights — worse, on the whole, than any other areas of the world — if you want evidence for any of these claims, let me know — and the content of public opinion as revealed in public opinion polls of Muslims — dovetail with the content of Islamic doctrine as violent, expansionist totalitarian theocracy.
I am very concerned about the amount of self-censorship going on in the West because people are afraid of Islamic jihadists or Muslims who get sudden jihad syndrome. If one speaks under his own name and face publicly in criticism of Islam, he receives constant death threats and has to think about a target being painted on his back for the rest of her life. If there are enough Muslims around, then the critic has a good chance of experiencing violence. What is your answer to that intimidation of free speech? Perhaps you just don’t give a damn. In that case, there is no point talking to you. But see quotingislam.blogspot.com for dozens of links to news stories about violence and death threats coming from Muslims against people and institutions, artists, journalists, teachers, comedians, etc. That is one of the points where your position is not sufficiently informed.
I agree with Robert Spencer that under no circumstances should people take the law into their own hands and “victimize” random Muslims. But apparently non-Muslim groups are being “victimized” far more than Muslims in all societies. It seems to me the victimization of non-Muslims is infinitely worse right now than any victimization of Muslims, but you don’t mention that. Are you even aware of it? Why don’t you care about that? Are you aware of what is happening to Christians in the Islamic world? To Jews? To others? Do you really not realize that what is going on there is several orders of magnitude worse than what is happening to Muslims in the West? Not just talking about ISIS, but in many parts of the Islamic world. There is a virtual holocaust against Christians and other non-Muslims.
Very glad you are an ex-Muslim, but your claims about Islam are uninformed. Yes, religion is not the only factor that influences Muslims. But Islam is the main factor that influences jihadists. Non-Muslim groups face all kinds of discrimination and political oppression, but are not involved in global jihad to spread totalitarian Islamic law. So what is different about Islam? The difference is that Muhammad was himself a jihadist who did much of what ISIS is doing. See the links on the right side of the website that I pointed out above. I believe a perusal of those links on the right of the website should change your mind. If those links cannot change your mind, then I must suppose you just don’t give a damn about what Islam is doing to the world, in which case there is no discussing this with you.
eduardo odraude says
Mahmoud,
A thorough perusal of the links at the right side of the blow linked website shows that Islam is distinctively problematic for human rights.
http://www.quotingislam.blogspot.com
Further, are you aware of the three year study a team of Sorbonne linguists undertook to compare the core texts of ten major religions? Do you know what the leader of that study found? That Islamic core texts were the most violent against other groups. Which is really not that hard to discover for anyone who critically examines the texts of major religions.
For example, every page of the Qur’an denounces unbelievers. What other religion does that? In three different places, the Qur’an commands Muslims to “kill them wherever you find them.” What other religion does that? What other religion’s prime exemplar and core text proposes global domination under its own religious law, and the eventual conversion or subjugation of non-believers under that law?
gravenimage says
Mahmoud, it is *only* Muslims who are reviving slavery today, and they are openly doing it on the basis of Islamic tenets.
If you are spouting apologia for this savagery, then you are not much of an “ex” Muslim.
Mirren10 says
If ‘mahmoud’ is an ex-muslim, why is he trying to exculpate islam and mohammedans ? Pfft.
If he’s an ‘ex-muslim’, then I’m a Hottentot.
Just another variation of taqiyyah, methinks.
Michael Copeland says
An important distinction is needed.
The Koran is (all of it) part of Islamic law.
The Old Testament is not part of US, UK, or Western law.
Carolyne says
Quoting the Old Testament has little meaning for Christians. The New Testament abrogated the Old. That is one of the basic differences in Islam and Christianity. Christianity lives in the modern world, Islam in the Seventh Century and there is nothing so vile as Islam.
eduardo odraude says
The Old Testament has meaning to Christians. But unlike the core Islamic texts, the Old Testament and New do not tend to exclude the possibility of independent moral reasoning or independent moral conscience. Thus Jews and Christians over time are able to criticize and reject for their own time the morally problematic elements recorded in their holy books. One reason the Old and New Testaments permit independent moral conscience is that the Old Testament teaches that human beings are made in the image of the Creator. We have a spark of the divine in us. We therefore are gifted with the power of independent reason and independent conscience. The Qur’an explicitly denies that human beings are made in the image of Allah.
For example, in Qur’an Chapter 42, Verse 11:
In the Judeo-Christian conception, human beings, made in God’s likeness, are children of God the Father. In the Qur’an, Allah never calls himself “Father,” and in several places denies He has any sons or daughters. Rather, human beings are only Allah’s servants or slaves. “I have only created jinns and men that they may serve me (Qur’an 51:56). Even if one supposes that both theologies are pure fantasy, the Islamic one leads to authoritarian social outcomes, whereas the Judeo-Christian one tends, over the long run, toward freedom.
Yog says
What bloody nonsense “prevalent in Hindu culture?” Can you produce a single verse from all of Hindu scripture that (a) sanctions rape the way Islam does on industrial scale and/or (b) forces a woman to marry her rapist?
The biggest rapes upon Hindus were done by muslim armies—most recently upon the Hindus of former east Pakistan (now Bangladesh) by the pak army in 1971. They organized large “rape camps” for captured Hindu women (TIME magazine reported on it—google “The World: East Pakistan: Even the Skies Weep” for a description of these rape camps).
Your paedophile prophet not only raped his child bride Aisha when she was only 9, but also raped so many other women. Notably, he raped Safiyya the very night he had killed her husband (tortured to death), her father and her brother. This is clearly written in the Sirat Rasul Allah (your own biography of Mohammed). In short, rape is very much a central part of Islamic doctrine. It is “Allah’s gift to muslim men.” Sick bloody religion of your desert.
George S. says
True, Yog. And they still sanction rape and slavery and pedophilia and all sorts of perverse things even today, for God’s sake. Are we living in the 20th Century or the 7th Century?? The Grand Mufti (or whatever) of Iran, the Ayatollah Khomenei published all sorts of rules and fatwas on purely sexual evils in his two books in 1990. Here is some of Islam’s perverted gibberish.
“A man can have sex with animals such as sheep, cows, camels and so on. However, he should kill the animal after he has his orgasm. He should not sell the meat to the people in his own village, but selling the meat to a neighbouring village is reasonable.
If one commits the act of sodomy with a cow, a ewe, or a camel, their urine and their excrement become impure and even their milk may no longer be consumed. The animal must then be killed as quickly as possible and burned.”
“A man can have sexual pleasure from a child as young as a baby. However, he should not penetrate vaginally, but sodomising the child is acceptable. If a man does penetrate and damage the child then, he should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl will not count as one of his four permanent wives and the man will not be eligible to marry the girl’s sister… It is better for a girl to marry at such a time when she would begin menstruation at her husband’s house, rather than her father’s home. Any father marrying his daughter so young will have a permanent place in heaven.” [“Tahrirolvasyleh”, fourth edition, Qom, Iran, 1990]
“It is not illegal for an adult male to ‘thigh’ or enjoy a young girl who is still in the age of weaning; meaning to place his penis between her thighs, and to kiss her.”
This is exactly what that deranged pedophile Mohammed did with Aisha when he was “playing ” with her when she was six years old! He at that time 54 years old.
My God, when will the world wake up to the dangers of this abhorrent and vile Cult. And this is what it is… it is NOT a religion, but a CULT.
Cicero says
How typical of the ex- Muslim apologist to flaunt their apostasy credentials whilst at time same time shilling for their Holy Prophet and Religion of Peace.
Yourost shows how truly difficult it is for a muslim apostate to shake off the venal ideology with which their minds have been contaminated from their earliest days. Their former madrassas and madrassic teachers would be so proud of them. You may run, you may hide , you may try to rip the alien from within but it clings to you ever tightly . The harder you struggle the more it tightens its grip.
You have a lot of programming to overcome Sir!
Westman says
The scholars noted that the “reintroduction of slavery is forbidden in Islam.”
Where are the notes and scriptural references forbiding it, please? And what is this baloney about reintroduction? Have these know-nothing-useful “longbeards” forgotten that it is currently practiced in Saudi Arabia and that there have been prosecutions of Muslims for bringing slaves to the US? Muda’rat artists, all.
DeMolay says
They haven’t forgotten. They’re just lying and pumping out disinformation for the Western media to lap up.
Michael Carpenter says
Islam has practiced slavery from its conception. Obviously it continues today. The following hadiths support Islamic slavery and raping of female slaves.
Hadith Sahih Bukhari B3,34,431 One of the captives was a beautiful Jewess, Safiya. Dihya had her first, but she was given to Mohammad next.
Hadith Sahih Bukhari B3,34,432 While sitting with Mohammad, I (Abu Said Al-Khudri) asked, “Mohammad, sometimes we receive female slaves as our share of the spoils. Naturally, we are concerned about their retaining their value (the sex slaves were worth less money if they were pregnant when sold). How do you feel about coitus interruptus?” Mohammad asked, “Do you do that? It is better not to do that. It is Allah’s will whether or not a child is born.”
Hadith Sahih Bukhari B9,93,506 The Muslims captured some females during the battle of Bani Al-Mustaliq and planned to rape them but did not want them impregnated. They asked Mohammad if there were any restrictions against coitus interruptus. Mohammadd told them that it was better that they should not interrupt their ejaculation. “It is preferable that you not do it because Allah has already determined everyone who wil be born until the end of time.” Mohammad said, “No life will be created if Allah does not create it.”
Hadith Sahih Muslim M008,3371 Abu Sirma asked, “Abu Said,did you ever hear Mohammad speak of coitus interruptus?” He answered, “Yes,” and elaborated. “On expedition with Mohammad to the Bi’l-Mustaliq we captured several fine Arab women. As our wives were not with us, we very strongly wanted to rape the women but were concerned that a pregnant captive would be devalued. So we asked Mohammed whether we should practice azl (coitus interruptus) when raping the captives. Mohammad said that it did not matter because, if a soul is meant to be born, it will be born.”
Yog says
Notice that Mohammed is actually encouraging his reluctant hoodlums to rape. The man was a supreme bastard and lowlife.

this paragraph makes me want to vomit. It makes me *furious*. It is disgusting.
“The fatwa also instructs owners of female slaves to “show compassion towards her, be kind to her, not humiliate her..”.
PFFFFT.
The writer of this text doesn’t have the faintest idea of the real meaning of kindness, compassion and human dignity. **He is talking about a woman – or a girl, perhaps a little, little girl, nine or ten or eleven years old, some of whom have been RAPED UNTIL THEY BLEED TO DEATH – who has been ENSLAVED and SOLD LIKE A COW OR A SHEEP and is being subjected to sexual congress **against her will**, usually even though she is crying and struggling and pleading with the rapist NOT to do it.**
A truly kind and compassionate man who respected a woman’s human dignity would accept NO for an answer.
A truly kind and compassionate man wouldn’t kidnap a woman to sell or use as a slave in the first place (nor buy one to use as such), and wouldn’t be f**king the poor girl or woman **against her will**.
Why isn’t the fatwa writer telling these evil creeps to 1/ cease and desist from dragging women and girls away from their parents – or even from their husbands, in some cases – and *selling them as slaves and keeping them as slaves* and 2/ to RELEASE all their captives forthwith, and pay for their return to their families?

eduardo odraude says
I guess a fair number of Muslims — at least in the West — are pretty unaware of what their core texts say. Though that might be changing, what with the small explosion of public Islam criticism in many venues where it did not occur until recently. One is surprised to suddenly see many more people than one might have expected are up to speed on the main lines of Islamic doctrine. So I would not be surprised if many Muslims who did not know are finding out.
Michael Copeland says
“Ninety per cent of muslims know absolutely nothing about the Koran” says I.Q. al Rassooli, Arabic-speaking Iranian Islam expert. After all, most do not speak Arabic, and they are made to recite it only, not to understand what it says. Questions are forcefully forbidden.
