“It’s not rape in Islam”: ISIS Muslima says jihadis’ rape of non-Muslim women is “allowed in the Quran”

Mar 11, 2019 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

The Daily Mail, the worst paper in the Western world, undertakes here to defend Islam and the Qur’an from charges that they condone the sexual enslavement of Infidel women, citing Qur’an 24:33, “Force not your slave-girls to whoredom.” However, this refers to forcing slave girls to become prostitutes. The Qur’an is quite clear that slave girls, “the captives of the right hand,” can be used sexually: “Prohibited to you are your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, your father’s sisters, your mother’s sisters, your brother’s daughters, your sister’s daughters, your mothers who nursed you, your sisters through nursing, your wives’ mothers, and your step-daughters under your guardianship of your wives unto whom you have gone in….And married women except those your right hands possess.” (4:23-24)

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 hath 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 those 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.”

An imam in Quebec recently declared that the ruling allowing for slave girls was still in force.

But never fear: the Daily Mail is here to tell you that the Qur’an and Muhammad and these Islamic scholars are all wrong, and that Islam actually forbids the sexual enslavement of Infidel women.

“‘It’s not rape in Islam’: ISIS ‘wife’ defends jihadis’ sexual assault and murder of Yazidi women because it is ‘allowed in the Quran’ as the last remaining fighters face being pushed from their final stronghold,” by Chris Dyer and Joel Adams, Mailonline, March 11, 2019:

An ISIS ‘wife’ has said Yazidi women can be raped as sex slaves because it states prisoners of war are ‘property’ in the Quran – before admitting she had not read the text.

The unidentified female was speaking to another woman who asked her about the treatment of Yazidis under the so-called caliphate.

Speaking to a mobile phone camera, she described her interpretation of the Quran as a justification for the rape and murder of Yazidi women taken prisoner as sex slaves, saying because the Muslim holy book defines prisoners of war as ‘property’ they can be treated as objects.

But when pressed on if it does actually states in the Quran that prisoners can be treated this way, the woman replied she ‘did not know much’ about the Islamic text.

In fact, sura 24, verse 33 of the Islamic holy book explicitly states: ‘Force not your slave-girls to whoredom that ye may seek enjoyment of the life of the world, if they would preserve their chastity.’

Another verse extols followers to treat prisoners respectfully and to ‘feed, for the love of Allah, the indigent, the orphan, and the captive.’

Some fundamentalist Islamic scholars have argued passages of the Quran justify the keeping and holding of female slaves.

Wearing a black niqab with glasses, she added that ‘it’s not rape in Islam..because they are your property’.

The woman is thought to have originally come from outside Iraq and Syria, and made the comments in a refugee camp in the Kurdish-controlled north of the country.

She said: ‘They were prisoners of war, and they become slaves, it is in [the] Quran.

‘They are property so in Islam you are allowed to use them, it’s not rape in Islam. Because they are your property they are your slaves.’

She then went on to say: ‘If it’s in the Quran then who am I to question [it]?’

When asked if does state this in the Quran, the woman replied while laughing: ‘I don’t know much about the Quran.’…

    Muslims have all this religious justification for their vile criminal behavior emanating from Quran. Of course the Western academics and political leaders will call it twisted interpretation of the religious texts and thus give Muslims a pass. They cannot accept that it’s the religion – stupid!!

    Those brutal, cruel ISIS jihadist /Muslims kidnapping girls and women raping them 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 about Muhammad that that he “Mohammad endorsed enslavement of all types: he personally owned slaves… ” he endorsed sex-slavery as a gift from Allah, and enjoyed offering sex-slaves as gifts…” Further on the very next page it also exposes that “Islam has enslaved more people than any other culture.”

    Those cruel, vicious, malicious misogynistic , murderous Muslims of ISIS with who are full of Islamic hate and malice for those who and not Muslims . The jihadist ISIS spite for all people, may be seen by the above .that they had inflicted the most savage Islamic behavior possible brutally callously heartless even raping girls and women. Those malicious jihadists of that jihad-minded Muslims , are actually putting in to the practice, with all their ruthless actions, the violence and killing that is part of the teaching of the “holy book” of Islam ,the Koran. Which contain the doctrine of extreme violent force for the advancement of Islam. As seen in the Koran, for example, 2:191,4:89. 5:33. 9:5,111,123. 47:4. So in misogynistic and deadly religion. .

    One of the major reasons as the how those men are so cruel and murderous 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 “hot iron” is Islam.

    Those Muslims who viciously and creel murdered those young women in cold blood have proven by their action the is a false religion but also they have proven the Islam is a violent ,murderous demonic religion .

      Apparently, reformist moralists such as Irshad Manji believe inherent in Islam is a divine sense of justice,
      and the violence of Islam can be extracted and trashed in favor of freedom and liberty and diversity….

      What say you?

      • elee says

        If a Muslim does that they kill him. It’s called apostasy.

          Grimly true.

          What orthodox Muslims believe is “justice” includes enslaving and raping Infidel girls.

    Thanks for finding and posting this. This tape and accompanying article had a brief tenure on Google News, then disappeared without a trace, didn’t show up for term searches & seemed to completely vanish. How and why this happened is a separate story…….I hope we might learn some day how that occurred.

    Trying to make the unholy, filthy book of islam seem like a good thing by quoting something and misapplying it, is much like saying a bottle of antiseptic alcohol is safe to drink because it’s only 75% Isopropyl with the remaining 25% being water. Only so much worse than drinking poison is storing it in the heart and mind and soul.

    The reporter is attempting to help deceive the public by making the moslim woman appear to not know her religion’s teaching. But she lived with….and listened to…and saw what those who had read the filthy book did to the young women and children they stole from their families and treated worse than dirt.

    Deception for islam is evil…as evil as is islam. This must make people like i omar gleeful…gaining more and more to reach the ultimate goal of enslaving all of mankind to the beast of satan, to satan himself.

    allah himself permits the RAPE of enslaved captured women[even if they are married]
    koran 4:24

    Sunan Abu Dawud
    vol 2 hadith 2155

    “allah revealed…..{i.e for muslims regarding having relations with captive women}..
    EXCEPT for those whom your right hand possesses”

    Both the koran and the hadith,allah and muhammed PERMIT the RAPE of women.

    And isn’t that adultery?Taking a MARRIED woman and enslaving her.?. and here we have allah and muhammed OK with it.

    ABOMINATION!

    • Paul Kiernan says

      Mar 17, 2019 at 8:26 pm

      Correct. Married captive women can also be raped as in 4. 24. But elsewhere only if no ransome. Many Muslims are shocked to hear this but say with Allah you can’t ask why.

  13. Lydia Church says

    Mar 11, 2019 at 8:21 pm

    What crap. This doesn’t mean that Muslim slave owners can’t rape their victims, nor does it mean that they can’t sell their sex slaves to other rapists.

    The Daily Mail is whitewashing this Islamic evil. *Ugh*.
