Jihad-un-Nikkah by Laila Ali
As a woman, I thought deeply before
writing this article. We, Muslim women are
subject to much scrutiny if we speak on
risqué topics, however I consider it an
injustice to sit back and watch the hypocrisy
and twisting of Islam when I am in a
position to highlight and speak out against
such atrocities. So here we are.
A few months ago, “The Ayesha Brigade”
made headlines all around the world.
Women, going from all over the world to
the Middle East with the intention of
“aiding brothers” in Holy War by offering
themselves up for sex Jihad. In essence,
concubines. And now we have ISIS (Islamic
State of Iraq and Syria) going around taking
unmarried girls from their families at
gunpoint for Jihad-un-Nikkah, Sex Jihad,
claiming women must join Jihad to cleanse
themselves by having intercourse with
Militants. The justification?
A Corrupt Fatwa from Corrupt Scholar
The translation,
“In the Name of Allah the Merciful
After liberation of the State of Nineveh,
and the welcome shown by the people of
the state to their brotherly mujahideen,
and after the great conquest, and the
defeat of the Safavid [Persian] troops in
the State of Nineveh, and its liberation,
and Allah willing, it will become the
headquarters for the mujahideen.
Therefore we request that the people of
this state offer their unmarried women
so that they can fulfil their duty of jihad
