Leaders of the
Canadian Muslim community have repeatedly condemned ISIS inhuman
practices blaming it of extreme and misguided interpretation of the
Quran and of being deviated from the true Islamic teachings.
In a publication
circulated to its followers in 2015, the Islamic State (a.k.a. IS,
ISIS, ISIL, The Caliphate), provided the Islamic-based guidelines for
“capturing apostate women” and taking “possession” of them as “slaves,”
which means a permission to have intercourse with the female slaves
even if it is against their will.
“Unbelieving [women]
who were captured and brought into the abode of Islam are permissible
to us… It
is permissible to have sexual intercourse with the female captive…
If she is a virgin, he [her master] can have intercourse with her
immediately after taking possession of her. However, is she isn’t, her
uterus must be purified [first]… It is permissible to buy, sell, or give as a
gift female captives and slaves, for they are
merely property… It
is permissible to have intercourse with the female slave who hasn’t
reached puberty if she is fit for intercourse… It is
permissible to beat the female slave as a form of disciplinary
beating…”
ICNA Canada:
It is permissible for Muslim men to have sex with their female slaves
ICNA (Islamic Circle
of North America) Canada is an Islamic nationalwide organization striving “to
build an Exemplary Canadian Muslim Community” by “total submission to
Him [Allah] and through the propagation of true and universal message
of Islam.”
ICNA Canada shares with
its followers a “Syllabus for the Month of March for MGAs and Workers”
that provides selected verses of the Quran and hadiths (traditions
containing sayings of Mohammad the prophet of Islam that constitute the
major source of guidance).
The syllabus contains
verses 1-11 verses of Chapter 23 of the Qurab Al-Mu’minun – The
Believers in Arabic and in English accompanied with interpretation:
“Successful indeed are the
believers. (1) Those who offer their Salât (prayers)
with all solemnity and full submissiveness. (2) And those who turn away
from Al-Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk, falsehood, and all that
Allâh has forbidden). (3) And those who pay the Zakât. (4) And those who guard their
chastity (i.e. Private parts, from illegal
sexual acts). (5) Except from their wives or (slaves) that their
right hands possess, – for then, they are free from
blame; (6) But whoever seeks beyond that, then those are the transgressors;
(7) Those who are faithfully true to their Amanât (all the duties which
Allâh has ordained, honesty, moral responsibility and trusts)[] and to
their covenants; (8) And those who strictly guard their (five
compulsory congregational) Salawât (prayers) (at their fixed stated
hours).[] (9) These are indeed the inheritors. (10) Who shall inherit
the Firdaus (Paradise). They shall dwell therein forever. (11)
(Translation by Dr. Mohsin)”
The interpretation of
verses 4 and 5, as appears on ICNA Canada’s syllabus, confirms the
permission for Muslim men to take a slave woman and to have an
intercourse with her.
Islamic ruling
on ‘sex slave’
Saudi Shaykh Muhammad
Saalih al-Munajjid explains this
issue his website islamqa.info (which is recommended by some Islamic
organizations in Canada as a valuable source of information):
“Islam allows a man
to have intercourse with his slave woman, whether he has a wife or
wives or he is not married.
“A slave woman with
whom a man has intercourse is known as a sariyyah (concubine) from the
word sirr, which means marriage.
“This is indicated by
the Qur’aan and Sunnah, and this was done by the Prophets… Our Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also did that, as did the
Sahaabah, the righteous and the scholars.
“The scholars are
unanimously agreed on that and it is not permissible for anyone to
regard it as haraam or to forbid it. Whoever regards that as haraam is
a sinner who is going against the consensus of the scholars…
The wife has no right
to object to her husband owning female slaves or to his having
intercourse with them.”
Free Islamic
book at Dundas Square in Toronto explains the “legitimate sources of
slaves” according to Islam
The Walk in Islamic
Info Center (WIIC), a Toronto-based organization dedicated to Dawah
(propagating Islam) activity, has an Islamic booth at Dundas Square in
downtown Toronto. Last year activists at the Islamic booth distributed
for free the book “Human rights in Islam and common misconceptions”
The book stipulates
“two exceptions as legitimate sources of slaves,” which are “war
captives, or prisoners of lawfully declared wars by a Muslim ruler” and
“an inherited slave born from two slave parents.” Other sections of the
book sanction crucifixion, chopping off thieves’ limbs, stoning
adulterers to death, imposing the Jizyah tax on non-Muslim residents
and launching to jihad to spread the message of Islam.
