In Islamic law, it is normal: 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 to 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 whom their right hands possess, for 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.”
Iraqi Ayatollah Al-Haeri said in April 7, 2016 that a man could offer slave girls to a friend for sex. In March 2017, Quebec imam Ewis El Nagar said that the Islamic ruling allowing slave girls was still in force
The savage exploitation of girls and young women is, unfortunately, a cross-cultural phenomenon, but only in Islamic law does it carry divine sanction.
“‘ISIS Opens Sex-Slave Market in Turkey’s Capital,’” by Ran Meir, Clarion Project, November 21, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
You may think ISIS’ demise in Iraq and Syria would mean an end to its sex-slave trading, but a new report says Islamic State has merely transferred its slave business into Turkey – including a market in Turkey’s capital Ankara. This means ISIS is involved in the slavery industry in a European country.
During its years of power in parts of Iraq and Syria, ISIS held slave markets both in private and public. With its loss of power, Islamic State began smuggling Yazidi women across the border into Turkey. It imprisoned them with ISIS families it had shifted from Iraq and Syria into Turkey previous to the major losses in territory.
ISIS is also said to be negotiating with the close relatives of these women to release them after years of captivity, torture and sexual slavery. The ransoms are believed to amount to thousands of dollars, which for many Yazidi families are sums they simply cannot afford.
It is understood that when the families don’t meet the ransom demands, ISIS sells the women to the highest bidders.
ISIS’ slavery operation is already up and running in three Turkish cities — Gaziantep, Urfa and Ankara — said Yazidi human rights campaigner Ali el-Hansouri speaking to Sputnik’s Arabic website.
Not only is ISIS holding women against their will, “but ISIS is also not releasing Yazidi children who were transferred to Turkey,” said el-Hansouri. “Rather it’s holding them within the houses of its activists there.”…

“There is no moderate or immoderate Islam, Islam is Islam. The mosques are our barracks, The minorets are our bayonets, The cupolas our helmets, and the faithful our soldiers.” Tyyip Erdogan, President of Turkey.

Erdogan is by now aware of this slave market. He will do nothing about it, because it is permissable in Islam. I wonder where each of these “slaves” came from and are coming from.
Yazidi women, Kurd women (Erdogan hates the Kurds), Christian women are all vulnerable in Erdogan’s Turkey. If this lucrative business is not stopped, supply will run out and resupply will be hunted and captured to maintain profit.
StacyGirl says
Recall that Mrs. Erdogan remarked how well educated women were in the ottoman harems. When not being raped they were force fed the Koran.

Not just that–often accomplished Infidel women, including in at least one case a French noblewoman–were kidnapped and sent to the Pasha’s Harem.

I am skeptical that Turkish authorities would allow ISIS to run a slave market in Ankara.
ElderlyZionist says
I’m not expressing support for the Turks. Just checking the sources.

I think you’re probably wise to be sceptical of the report. The English language Sputnik site seem to specialise in genuine fakenews. It might be a ploy to discredit those of us who (like Robert) know the msm operates on an agenda driven propaganda model that is impervious to truth.
There are alternative sources out there, Jihad Watch being a of major importance, but I’d be careful regarding Sputnik as a source.

Nah to be honest with you Turkish special forces were discovered after Bombings of the Islamic State positions took place by kurds many dead daesh members had Turkish military IDs so + the proclivity of Turks to marry of young adolescent girls to older men is well known and takes place in main urban centres … erdogan was caught buying oil from the Islamic State so put all that together and it wouldn’t surprise me if the report is true

Island Man says
OK, I am finally coming to terms with Islam, and believe it or not, I like some of the things they have to offer, including the new sex slave market.
The only problem I can see is that buying a slave involves a long term commitment, can someone please help me out and let me know if there is such a thing as a “used slave market”, to help recycle older slaves for younger ones?
Also, do slaves depreciate over time, and if so, what is the approved depreciation rate?
The way I see this, if God said it, then I believe it, and if this is the new reality, we should embrace it.
I’m interested, I just need to know some details.

“Island Man”
For all clear Islamic answers to your questions above, please see, Hedaya, an in-depth Commentary on the Islamic Law.
(THE HEDAYA, COMMENTARY ON THE ISLAMIC LAWS, TRANSLATED BY CHARLES HAMILTON, KITAB BHAVAN, New Delhi -110002, 2nd Edition, Reprint: 1994.)
With respect to the Hedaya, the publisher’s note provides, “the book enshrines the basic principles of Islamic Law on every aspect of life, and on every subject.”
To include the issues you note above, with respect to one’s property.
Publisher’s note further states, “The importance of this book (the Hedaya) cannot be exaggerated. It is,” they assert, “referred to in all courts in their judgments and by authors on Islamic Laws in their treatises.”
Therefore, for obvious reasons, as noted above, for clear establish Islamic answers to your questions, which, are all found and addressed therein, I refer you to it.
That tables, basic guiding principle and law covering your question is this: the slave, like the wife, the cow, the horse, etc., is the property of her or his master–the favor “of Allah to the man.”
As noted, be it a wife, a slave, a buffalo or a camel, that favor of “Allah” to the man is the property of that man. That which “Allah” gives to him. As such, that law is the paramount guiding principle in how one keeps them or disposes of the said property.
As the following hadith speaks to:
Footnotes of the leaned in Islam proved there read as follows:
Certainly, in many instances, the human aspect of the said property is taken into consideration.
Just one example of that consideration we see in the following comment likewise by, as they say, those with knowledge, in that Umar “said, ‘the female slave who gives birth to a child by her master, she should not be sold, gifted, nor be inherited. The master may benefit from her in his life, and she is a free woman after her master’s death.’” (Ibid, P. 195)
That said, indeed, in Hedaya, under the chapter on Sales, and elsewhere, diminution of value of property, to include that of humankind, is addressed.
You sound as if you are ready to covert, Island Man—why would one claim to be Islamic and reject and thus refuse to live guided by Islamic law? And you, my dear friend, you sound not only possibly ready to do so but eager to.
Claim to be Islamic while rejecting, and thus refusing, to live guided by Islamic law, why that is kin to claiming to be American yet refusing to live by the laws commonplace in this nation.

We’ll probably never know how interwoven ISIS and the Turkish government have been. Erdogan fears exposure via testimony in the Reza Zarrab trial. Turkey fancies itself an Islamic world power, they seem to have forgotten 1919. Fear for the decent and rational men and women who are unsafe at home.

Walter Sieruk says
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 124 it informs the reader “Muhammad endorsed enslavement of all types…he endorsed sex-slavers as a gift form Allah , and enjoyed offering sex-slaves as gifts…” Further page 125 informs the reader that “Islam has enslaved more people than any other culture.”
Walter Sieruk says
Those ISIS jihadists with jihad malice –filled heinously cruel misogyny with their kidnapping and raping both girls and women because their religion. There are some naïve and uninformed people who might , understandably, when finding out about this be shocked and then stop and wonder and then ask “Just how can those jihadists of ISIS ,being so very religious , also at the time also be so very malicious , vile, unfeeling and misogynistic ? “ The answer to that question is found in the Bible. For the Bible teaches that there are some people who are extremely heartless, cold, callous and dangerous because they have had “their conscience seared with a hot iron.” First Timothy 4:2. [ K.J.V.] In this case of the members of ISIS this “hot iron” is Islam.
elee says
BTW part of the hell that is Islam is the criminal networking. A well-researched article in Foreign Affairs this week stresses that ISIS’s intelligence networks remain intact all over the middle east. These networks are obviously active in Turkey, with interpenetration into the government (think of Pakistan). And Erdogan has publicly stated that he draws lots of European intelligence from Turkish and other imams in Europe, along with urging expatriate Turks to have many children and refuse to assimilate to western cultures. I suspect we will never know the depths of the evil involved.
Ibrahim itace muhammed says
If it is true ,the church can go there and buy many slaves, males and females,Castrate male slaves for hard labor and keep females for sex by crucifying their hands and legs before penetrating,all pursuant to mithraist Bible. why not insert sticks instead of penis like their Co-religionists Hindu barbarians?
Keys says
Your depraved comment here today, itace, is probably why you are allowed to keep posting here at JW.
The profoundly evil influence Islam has on your soul comes through in your words, despite your efforts to portray yourself as a courageous, informed warrior for truth and goodness. The ugliness of it (Islam’s influence on the soul) is repulsive to any normal, loved human being.
I recommend an exorcism of the evil spirit of Islam that possesses you.
tim gallagher says
I love your comment about the evil spirit of Islam needing an exorcism, Keys. I consider Islam to be unmitigated evil and consider that it deforms Muslims and turns them into evil monsters, but I’d never thought about it being like possession by an evil spirit requiring an exorcism. A clever comment. I’d say probably all Muslims require an exorcism to get rid of the hate their lives are consumed by and then they can start to become decent types of human beings.
Keys says
Thank you, Tim. I, too, think Islam is “unmitigated evil” from a spiritual point of view; some adherents are possessed in the classic sense.
?
You are probably aware of Psychiatrist M. Scott Peck’s “People of the Lie: The Hope for Healing Human Evil”. He tried to look at evil from a “scientific” point of view.
In his practice he had patients who did not fit any current psychiatric diagnosis and he became convinced that they were evil. His ideas on evil from a psychiatric point of view fit Islam very well. No doubt in my mind that Muslims are people of the Lie (Islam).
Is it possible for a rotten tree, like Islam, to produce good fruit ? It needs to be cut down and thrown into the fire. Or as Wellington likes to say – consigned to “the trash bin of history”.

Proverbs 1 KJV
1 The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
2 To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
3 To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
4 To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
5 A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
6 To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.
7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
8 My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.
10 My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.
11 If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:
12 Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
13 We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
14 Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:
15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:
17 Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.
18 And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.
19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof.
20 Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
21 She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,
22 How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge.

GC says
All cultures practiced slavery for thousands of years. The followers of Jesus abolished slavery. The followers of a certain so called prophet follow his example in the matter. The biblical verses in the old testament regarding slavery are not written to or for Christans. They were written to the Jewish people before the time of Christ in a context of limited, finite and narrow application. Those verses not include the details you accuse. It is satan who accuses the people of the book. Satan literally means the accuser. The holy spirit is the spirit of God, also known as the breath or wind of God. Christians believe God is one and that God can reveal himself in different ways. Which is obvious for a powerful being of the creativity we see revealed in creation.

To non bigoted fair minded readers who may have stumbled upon this piece of fake news; no such “markets” exists in Turkey. This is a pure fabrication with the title bearing no relation to the article provided as reference. Trying to pass off illegal, criminal activities such as human trafficking – a problem widespread throughout the world – as a legal activity in Turkey is nothing but slander. But as usual Mr Spencer throws a bone to his loyal band of bigots, racists and anti ‘anything to do with Islam’ pack of followers and the feeding frenzy begins as evidenced by the 80+ comments to this blog post.
Here is what the actual scholars of Islamic theology and law state on the subject:
“No scholar of Islam disputes that one of Islam’s aims is to abolish slavery. God says: ‘And what will show you what the obstacle is?, the freeing of a slave, or to give food on a day of hunger ’ (Al-Balad , 90: 12-14); and: ‘… then [the penalty for them is] the setting free of a slave before they touch one another … ’ (Al-Mujadilah , 58: 3). The Prophet Muhammad’s Sunnah is that he freed all male and female slaves who were in his possession or whom had been given to him[45] . For over a century, Muslims, and indeed the entire world, have been united in the prohibition and criminalization of slavery, which was a milestone in human history when it was finally achieved. “
