Who is buying? There is no doubt a market all over the Islamic world, as well as outside it. Why? Because the seizure of Infidel girls and their use as sex slaves is sanctioned in the Qur’an. According to Islamic law, Muslim men can take “captives of the right hand” (Qur’an 4:3, 4:24, 33:50). The Qur’an says: “O Prophet! Lo! We have made lawful for you your wives to whom you have paid their dowries, and those whom your right hand possesses of those whom Allah has given you as spoils of war” (33:50). 4:3 and 4:24 extend this privilege to Muslim men in general. The Qur’an says that a man may have sex with his wives and with these slave girls: “The believers must win through, those who humble themselves in their prayers; who avoid vain talk; who are active in deeds of charity; who abstain from sex, except with those joined to them in the marriage bond, or the captives whom their right hands possess, for in their case they are free from blame.” (Qur’an 23:1-6)
The rape of captive women is also sanctioned in Islamic tradition:
Abu Sirma said to Abu Sa’id al Khadri (Allah he pleased with him): 0 Abu Sa’id, did you hear Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) mentioning al-’azl? He said: Yes, and added: We went out with Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) on the expedition to the Bi’l-Mustaliq and took captive some excellent Arab women; and we desired them, for we were suffering from the absence of our wives, (but at the same time) we also desired ransom for them. So we decided to have sexual intercourse with them but by observing ‘azl (Withdrawing the male sexual organ before emission of semen to avoid conception). But we said: We are doing an act whereas Allah’s Messenger is amongst us; why not ask him? So we asked Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him), and he said: It does not matter if you do not do it, for every soul that is to be born up to the Day of Resurrection will be born. (Sahih Muslim 3371)
It is also in Islamic law: “When a child or a woman is taken captive, they become slaves by the fact of capture, and the woman’s previous marriage is immediately annulled.” (Umdat al-Salik O9.13)
The Egyptian Sheikh Abu-Ishaq al-Huwayni declared in May 2011 that “we are in the era of jihad,” and that meant Muslims would take slaves. In a subsequent interview he elaborated:
Jihad is only between Muslims and infidels. Spoils, slaves, and prisoners are only to be taken in war between Muslims and infidels. Muslims in the past conquered, invaded, and took over countries. This is agreed to by all scholars—there is no disagreement on this from any of them, from the smallest to the largest, on the issue of taking spoils and prisoners. The prisoners and spoils are distributed among the fighters, which includes men, women, children, wealth, and so on.
When a slave market is erected, which is a market in which are sold slaves and sex-slaves, which are called in the Qur’an by the name milk al-yamin, “that which your right hands possess” [Koran 4:24]. This is a verse from the Qur’an which is still in force, and has not been abrogated. The milk al-yamin are the sex-slaves. You go to the market, look at the sex-slave, and buy her. She becomes like your wife, (but) she doesn’t need a (marriage) contract or a divorce like a free woman, nor does she need a wali. All scholars agree on this point—there is no disagreement from any of them. […] When I want a sex slave, I just go to the market and choose the woman I like and purchase her.
Around the same time, on May 25, 2011, a female Kuwaiti politician, Salwa al-Mutairi, also spoke out in favor of the Islamic practice of sexual slavery of non-Muslim women, emphasizing that the practice accorded with Islamic law and the parameters of Islamic morality.
A merchant told me that he would like to have a sex slave. He said he would not be negligent with her, and that Islam permitted this sort of thing. He was speaking the truth. I brought up [this man’s] situation to the muftis in Mecca. I told them that I had a question, since they were men who specialized in what was halal, and what was good, and who loved women. I said, “What is the law of sex slaves?”
The mufti said, “With the law of sex slaves, there must be a Muslim nation at war with a Christian nation, or a nation which is not of the religion, not of the religion of Islam. And there must be prisoners of war.”
“Is this forbidden by Islam?” I asked.
“Absolutely not. Sex slaves are not forbidden by Islam. On the contrary, sex slaves are under a different law than the free woman. The free woman must be completely covered except for her face and hands. But the sex slave can be naked from the waist up. She differs a lot from the free woman. While the free woman requires a marriage contract, the sex slave does not—she only needs to be purchased by her husband, and that’s it. Therefore the sex slave is different than the free woman.”
In January 2016, a female al-Azhar professor stated that Allah allowed Muslims to rape non-Muslim women in order to humiliate them.
The savage exploitation of girls and young women is, unfortunately, a cross-cultural phenomenon, but only in Islamic law does it carry divine sanction. And that sanction must be discussed if anything effective is ever going to be done to end this abuse.
“Sexual slavery new funding source for terror groups like Isis, study reveals,” BT, October 9, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Terrorists are using human trafficking, including trading in sex slaves, as a new source of funding, according to a new report.
Groups, including Isis and Boko Haram, are turning to hostage-taking and ransom efforts as historical revenue streams such as taxation and oil sales dry up, the research found.
The study by foreign policy and security think tank the Henry Jackson Society suggests kidnapping brought in $10 million to $30 million (around £7.6 million to £22.8 million) for Isis last year.
It also details how extremists are using sexual violence, including rape, sexual slavery, and forced marriage, to boost recruitment, galvanise fighters and punish disbelievers.
Victims cited in the study include a 10-year-old Libyan girl who was repeatedly raped by traffickers while she was being held in a camp.
Yvette Cooper, chairwoman of the influential Commons Home Affairs Select Committee, said: “Isil, Boko Haram and other evil groups are increasingly seeing human trafficking as a possible revenue stream – and we know that terrorists use sexual violence as one of the weapons they use to divide and create fear within communities.
“It is important this is recognised in the interpretation of terror in our current laws.”…

Islam is SADOMASOCHISM. That is why Islam is popular among the prison population.
Sons of Liberty says
It is important that we recognize this in our current terrorist laws ? Seriously ? Then WHY are ISLAMIC RAPE GANGS in the UK continuing THEIR GROOMING of INFIDEL GIRLS ? Then why is it that ANYONE who points this out is ACCUSED OF ISLAMOPHOBIA ?

Beacuse the police, agreeing with the politicos’re afraid of stirring up the mucklims and causing the mucklims to riot in the streets…no police left to interfere, except with non-mucklim citizens prepared to oppose the mucklims. That apparently deserves jail time – but not for the mucklims because they’ve become near-untouchables!
John Forbes says
TH UK MUSLIM child raping groups are into this because the Hadiths say it is acceptable . TO HELL with British law & yet not a single POLICEMAN or POLITICIAN will say anything !
Even Sarah Champion who wants an investigation shys well away form the OBVIOUS connections !
Possibly at no TIME in WRITTEN MEMORY have people had SUCH COWARDS in the so called LEAD !
This cowardice level is simply beyond belief & will lead to very savage conflicts !
NEW LABOR & BLAIR had & have a great deal to do with this & listening to him CLAIM that the PUBLIC PERCEPTION is FLAWED made me want to THROW UP !
Much of the CHILD RAPING & ABUSE of others IS at HIS DOOR !!!

Steve's nephew says
Islam is basically a world wide cult. Like other cults, they have their stated agenda, such as removing toxins from the body and becoming healthy, and their real agenda such as providing sexual favors to the cult leadership. This explanation may make no sense to you unless you have studied cults.
By comparison, the Muslims also have their stated reason for existing, and their real reason for existing. The stated reason is “morality.” They act like sexual purity is of paramount importance, along with prohibiting thievery, and honoring their God {Allah) by not tolerating criticism (blasphemy). The real agenda of Islam is not morality: it is authority and control.
gravenimage says
Yes–the idea that Muslims can have four wives–including prepubescent girls–and temporary wives, and can rape women in Jihad, and keep as many sex slaves as they can get their hands on, but that dating is forbidden, shows just how twisted the Islamic concept of morality is.
Bob says
Plus the fact that homosexuality deserves a short trip from a rooftop, yet mucklims apparently look forward to the small boys scattered like pearls in their boozy brothel in paradise. Logic?
mortimer says
SADOMASOCHISM is the normative emotional subtext of Islam, rather than an aberration.

Taking captives for ransom and for sex slavery is as old as Islam itself, and what is reported here is nothing new. Our navy was established to fight the Barbary pirates, who were Muslims acting with the approval of the Ottoman rulers; these pirates had been preying upon British and other European merchant ships for years, taking both hostages and the ships’ contents for booty. The hostages were held for ransom, which was often paid by the hostages’ governments, and sometimes by their families, if they had sufficient means. Otherwise, the hostages were enslaved, and the girls and women were sent to harems as far away as Istanbul, where they became the Sultan’s sex slaves. Large numbers of Europeans met this fate under the Turks, whose dominion extended west to Morocco. When these predatory Muslims began to attack U.S. merchant ships, our government initially agreed to pay tribute annually to the Ottoman Bey, which was in effect a type of jizya. As the Ottomans demanded more and more jizya which was putting a significant dent in the national treasury, it became necessary to develop a naval force to confront and defeat Muslim extortion. In our own time, this Muslim tradition of predation on the high seas has been perpetuated by Somali pirates, who, as their predecessors did two hundred years ago, continue to take hostages for ransom. The fact that these pirates are Muslim, continuing an age-old tradition which Muslims justify on religious grounds, is almost always glossed over by contemporary news outlets. I recommend Brian Kilmeade’s book on this subject, Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates, for those interested.

Islamic State and other jihad groups now using sexual slavery …
This kind of sexual depravity is endorsed by allah and many of his followers are happy to oblige his commands. And those that don’t fully live allah’s depraved teachings are helping those that do by condoning those teachings as godly truth. I’ve always said, if you have a religion that teaches piggish behavior then you’re going to end up with a lot of pigs. Islam is a giant buffet of perverted delicasies for muslims who want to live out their violent and lustful fantasies. They are blinded by their desire to fulfill allah’s hateful commands while their more peaceful compatriots–a.k.a., moderate muslims– feed those sick convictions with a broad spectrum of support and participation for the ideology that teaches it. This is the challenge of islam. And we expect that our “civilized” leaders know this and will defend our values from the threat it poses. But they don’t because we already have too many muslims among us, they’re afraid to take a firm stand because there’s a rumor that muslims have a penchant for violence, go figure. So our leaders put on a brave face and pretend the whole thing is a matter of religious freedom against hateful islamophobes that can’t stand brown skin. But it’s not. It’s about one culture and religion wanting to destroy every other culture and religion for hateful and bigoted reasons. I know who’s acting right in this issue, and it ain’t those who aid and excuse crimes for the sake of religious bigotry. Thank goodness for Spencer, Gilders, and Geller.
Our leaders are not acting forthrightly in regard to islam, Trump is a notable exception who at least cared enough to speak the truth. The consequence of this complicity will be more terror and crime for islam’s war against us. Such people do not deserve our vote. They deserve to be driven from power as traitors against their nation and humanity.

As for those brutal, cruel and vile ISIS jihadist /Muslims kidnapping girls and women and using them as sex slaves. This actually started with the founder and prophet of Islam, Muhammad . Who all Muslims look to as an example of how to behave. It’s revealed in the book JESUS AND THE JIHADIS: CONFRONTING THE RAGE OF ISIS by the Christian authors Graig A. Evans and Jeremiah J. Johnson For on page 125 it informs the reader “A little known fact is that the highest priced slave in mecca was always a white women. The Sunna is that Muhammad’s favorite sex-slave was a white Christian woman.”

Meanwhile in The U.S., Linda Sarsour has American “feminist” protestors trading in their pink hats for hijabs and niqabs and wearing them as an expression of their independence.
Priceless.

The that book H=JESUS AND THE JIHADIS CONFRONTING THE RAGE OF ISIS by Graig A. Evans and Jeremiah J. Johnson informs the reader on page 124 that “Muhammad endorsed enslavement of all types: he personally owned two ‘black slaves.’ ” and “he endorsed sex- slavery as a gift from Allah , and enjoyed offering sex slaves as gifts…”

SteveFinSC says
Well, an article I read last year or the year before (on this site I believe) said that the ISIS fighters immediately separated out the best girls from the rest. These girls were auctioned off to wealthy men from the GULF STATES. That’s Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE, etc. Those are our ALLIES. These folks may be “allies” but their true nature is lurking right beneath the surface. I wonder if President Trump understands that when he’s negotiating or otherwise dealing with the King of Saudi Arabia that that man probably has young Western or Iraqi Christian or Yazidi women and girls as slaves in his palace.

Yes–often Muslims who are posing as our “allies”. *Ugh*.

And this would not work except for the fact that plenty of supposedly “non-extremist” Muslims are all too eager to buy the victims.
God, I hate Islam.
