In the now closed thread "To maintain supply of sex slaves, ISIS pushes birth control", Dittohead Not asked, "I wonder which part of their Koran they cite to justify sex slaves". He will probably be surprised to hear that there is an actual answer to that question, but before I give it, I want to clarify that I'm not playing a game of My Religion Is Better Than Islam, because I have no religion. I wouldn't bother commenting on any beliefs if they didn't impact the world, which is why I neither know nor care what, for example, Shintoism teaches. Now, to the subject at hand:
Islam does indeed sanction the rape of captives and/or slaves. If you want to say, "Yabut Christians rape too", you would of course be right. The Crusades alone bear this out, but that is not the point. Christians who rape, and even claim to do so in the name of their religion, can point to no scriptural or historical example for justification. To the best of my knowledge, no words or deeds ascribed to the mythical character know as Jesus even come close to approval of rape. Muslims, in stark contrast, not only have passages from the Qur'an and hadiths to sanctify and condone their crime, but the real life example of Mohamed and the first Muslims.
Let's start with the Qur'an. The following verse concludes a list that describes with whom Muslims may not have sex: 4:24 - And [also prohibited to you are all] married women except those your right hands possess.
The following 2 verses are from a list of conditions by which a Muslim must abide for God to look favorably upon him on Judgement Day: 70:29-30 - ...And those who guard their private parts Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they are not to be blamed.
This means you can rape your captives. Period. Amanda Lindhout, who was held by Islamists in Somalia for 15 months, was shown these verses when she complained about being repeatedly raped by one of her guards despite the fact that she had "converted" to Islam.
Even more damning is that Mohamed condoned (and probably participated in) the practice. These hadiths (and there are more that say the same thing) show conclusively that females who fell into the hands of the pracitioners of the Religion of Peace could be raped:
Jabir added: We used to practice coitus interruptus during the lifetime of Allah's Apostle while the Quran was being Revealed.
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri: That during the battle with Bani Al-Mustaliq they (Muslims) captured some females and intended to have sexual relation with them without impregnating them. So they asked the Prophet about coitus interruptus. The Prophet said, "It is better that you should not do it, for Allah has written whom He is going to create till the Day of Resurrection." Qaza'a said, "I heard Abu Sa'id saying that the Prophet said, 'No soul is ordained to be created but Allah will create it."
The hadith makes it worse. At least Mohamed's men were trying to prevent their rape victims from becoming pregnant, but Mohamed gave them the green light to complete the rape by telling them God has already decided if they will get pregnant.
When ISIS fighters who line up to buy sex slaves say, "It is ordained", this is what they are talking about.
