What Islamists plan for our wives and daughters

From Translating Jihad, 31 May 2011:

...Egyptian Salafi Shaykh Abi-Ishaq al-Huwayni:

We are in the era of jihad.

The era of jihad has come over us, and jihad in the path of Allah is a pleasure. It is a real pleasure.

... The poverty that we’re in—is it not due to our abandonment of jihad? But if we could conduct one, two, or three jihadist operations every year, many people throughout the earth would become Muslims. And whoever rejected this da’wa, or stood in our way, we would fight against him and take him prisoner, and confiscate his wealth, his children, and his women—all of this means money.

Every mujahid who returned from jihad, his pockets would be full. He would return with 3 or 4 slaves, 3 or 4 women, and 3 or 4 children. Multiply each head by 300 dirhams, or 300 dinar, and you have a good amount of profit. If he were to go to the West and work on a commercial deal, he would not make that much money.

Whenever things became difficult (financially), he could take the head (i.e. the prisoner) and sell it, and ease his (financial) crisis. He would sell it like groceries....

From Jihad Watch, 12 June 2011:

Egyptian imam: "When I want a sex slave, I just go to the market and choose the woman I like and purchase her"

This is the second Islamic spokesman to speak out in favor of sex slavery in recent days [see above, from Translating Jihad].

...After Egyptian Shaykh Abu-Ishaq al-Huwayni's controversial comments about jihad and slavery (see here) were published on YouTube, Facebook, and also in Egyptian press, he was given the opportunity to respond in a telephone interview aired on the Islamic satellite television station al-Hikma on 22 May 2011. In his approximately 20-minute response, he contended that ...he was talking ...of offensive jihad.

... he explained the meaning of offensive jihad, and established through sources in the Qur'an and sayings of Muhammad that both offensive jihad and the taking of spoils of war, namely slaves and "sex-slaves," are legitimate under Islam.

Jihad Watch condensed the 20-minute interview down to about 8 and a half minutes. Follow this link to their site to see the subtitled video and the transcript.
