Islamic State issues abhorrent sex slavery guidelines about how to treat women

Islamic State has issued harrowing guidelines for how its militants are to treat their female slaves.

Dated October/November 2014, a Q&A leaflet details exactly how IS followers are to buy, sell and abuse "unbelieving" women – thought to mean all those who are not Sunni Muslims.

"What makes al-sabi permissible [ie what makes it permissible to take such a woman captive] is [her] unbelief. Unbelieving [women] who were captured and brought into the abode of Islam are permissible to us, after the imam distributes them," the pamphlet prescribes, according to an English translation.

"It is permissible to have sexual intercourse with the female captive," it continues. "Allah the almighty said: [Successful are the believers] who guard their chastity, except from their wives or (the captives and slaves) that their right hands possess, for then they are free from blame [Qur'an 23:5-6]."
