Female Sex Slaves A-OK Under Islam
I've read this in Islamic texts, but haven't blogged it because I thought it just too much for people to believe would happen in the modern age (our modern age, that is, since Islam is snugly ensconced in the Dark Ages). But now a former candidate for Kuwaiti parliament, Salwa al-Mutairi, is speaking out about how it's time to "revive the institution of sex-slavery." Raymond Ibrahim reports:
A brief English report appeared over the weekend in the Kuwait Times (nothing, of course, in the MSM):Muslim men who fear being seduced or tempted into immoral behavior by the beauty of their female servants, or even of those servants "casting spells" on them, would be better to purchase women from an "enslaved maid" agency for sexual purposes. She [Mutairi] suggested that special offices could be set up to provide concubines in the same way as domestic staff recruitment agencies currently provide housemaids. "We want our youth to be protected from adultery," said al-Mutairi, suggesting that these maids could be brought as prisoners of war in war-stricken nations like Chechnya to be sold on later to devout merchants.The Arabic news website, Al Arabiya, has the sordid details, including a video of Mutairi addressing this topic. I summarize and translate various excerpts below (note: I am not making any of this up):
The Kuwaiti female activist begins by insisting that "it's of course true" that "the prophet of Islam legitimized sex-slavery." She recounts how when she was in Mecca, Islam's holiest city, she asked various sheikhs and muftis (learned, authoritative Muslims) about the legality of sex-slavery according to Sharia: they all confirmed it to be perfectly legal; Kuwaiti ulema further pointed out that extra "virile" men--Western synonyms include "sex-crazed," "lecherous," "perverted"--would do well to purchase sex-slaves to sate their appetites without sinning.
Here's a particularly interesting excerpt from her taped speech on the rules governing sex-slaves:
A Muslim state must [first] attack a Christian state--sorry, I mean any non-Muslim state--and they [the women, the future sex-slaves] must be captives of the raid. Is this forbidden? Not at all; according to Islam, sex slaves are not at all forbidden. Quite the contrary, the rules regulating sex-slaves differ from those for free women [i.e., Muslim women]: the latter's body must be covered entirely, except for her face and hands, whereas the sex-slave is kept naked from the bellybutton on up--she is different from the free woman; the free woman has to be married properly to her husband, but the sex-slave--he just buys her and that's that....Mutairi suggests the enslaved girls be at least 15 years-old.
Well, that's big of her. Move to The Netherlands or another small European country, and have children, and maybe your 15-year-old can be among the first to be sold.
Actually, even male sex slaves are a-ok under islam...look up bacha baazi which is prevalent in many parts of the muslim world. And kids whose dads are killed in war are perfect candidates for this in islam. I guess this and keeping sex slaves was a way of those guys showing their supremacy over those they conquered(and showing the others who did not participate in war on what they lost out) and is now being legitimized in various ways.

You knew there had to be some reason for Islam to exist, didn't you?
No beer, no wine, no dancing, no heathen images and no bacon. A guy's got to have a little fun, or what's the point?

Please remember items like this before you pull Bible quotes out of context for your typical anti-Judaism screeds.

Don't you mean, "Please, Amy, stop saying something when I post my religiously driven posts dispensing my homo-fear and hatred"?
And my mother is a biblical scholar who has been studying every week since I was a kid (about 40 years), so I actually know the bible pretty well. Feel free to detail below when I've quoted something "out of context."
The difference is, Jews and Christians, who believe, sans evidence, in god, take their books as allegory rather than as a mandate.

Somehow I'm betting all those anti sex trafficking radio ads now playing (heard it 3 times last night) aren't talking about Muslims.

As someone who resides in Texas, I run into a lot of fundamentalist Christians who do do believe in interpreting the bible and take it literally.

Well, when another Islamic sect takes over Mutairi's city, and she's taken as someone's sex slave, we'll see how she feels about it then. I'm sure she's also love it if any teenage sons she has are taken as "Dancing Boys."
The Islamic view of what's "pure" with regards to sex is really f*cked up.

How many of them are slaughtering their adulterous neighbors or disobedient children?

Let's see now.
Our "oppressive" Western, Judeo-Christian, Patriarchal Culture has been strong enough and civilized enough to protect women (and men) from this type of behavior and provide general civil liberties.
But now, and for the last 40 years, the feminists and multi-culti's are trying their very best to destroy our too-masculine, too-"repressive" way of doing things. We are in the process of being "deconstructed!"
Anyone else wonder how all this is going to work out after we have finally become a true Woman's Nation? The women had better hope there are no Men's Nations left!
Naked from the waist up, eh? Niiiiiiice.
Unfortunately, the more likely outcome is a totalitarian Thought Police State of Perpetual War -- needed, of course, to keep folks, and especially the women, niiiiice and saaaaaaaaafe ... .

"Sex Slaves", "Naked from the waist up" - who ever said Islam has nothing positive to recommend it?

Do they interpret it, or take it literally? Are they running around stoning gays? Because I live in texas too, and I've yet to see that. Believing in creation, sure, but the rest? Nope, not that I've ever seen.

This just in: "Unattractive woman dressed in bag instructs uninterested men to enslave pretty young girls in desperate attempt to win their approval."

For comparison, let's look at the Biblical rule for this situation. It's Deuteronomy 21, verse 10-14. This is the rule for women taken captive during war, my summary:
If you go to war and take captives and one is a beautiful woman that you want, then you have to give her a month to mourn for her parents, and after that you can be her husband and she will be your wife. If you don't want her any more, you have to let her go free, and you are not allowed to sell her, because you had sex with her.
So the ancient Israelites basically said no sex slaves - she has to be your wife and if you don't want her after that, she is a free woman. Actually very impressive.

Actually, this just reinforces my assertion that muslim women are just as responsible for the terrors of Islamism as the men. She *believes* this sh*t, and would willingly inflict it on you, or me. And most probably herself, given the level of her unabashed cheerleading for Sex-Slaves for Allah. The few women that have escaped the brainwashing are few, far between, and running for their lives.
