Why does this keep happening? Yes, sexual molestation happens all over. But we see Muslim migrants involved in this kind of story is seen on a not infrequent basis. Why? One reason may be because such treatment of infidel women is sanctioned in the Qur’an.
In France, a Muslim quoted Qur’an while raping his victim. A survivor of a Muslim rape gang in the UK has said that her rapists would quote the Qur’an to her, and believed their actions justified by Islam. Thus it came as no surprise when Muslim migrants in France raped a girl and videoed the rape while praising Allah and invoking the Qur’an. In India, a Muslim gave a Qur’an and a prayer rug to the woman he was holding captive and repeatedly raping. And the victim of an Islamic State jihadi rapist recalled: “He told me that according to Islam he is allowed to rape an unbeliever. He said that by raping me, he is drawing closer to God…He said that raping me is his prayer to God.” In India, a Muslim kidnapped and raped a 14-year-old Hindu girl, and forced her to read the Qur’an and Islamic prayers. In Pakistan, another Christian woman recounted that her rapist was also religious: “He threw me on the bed and started to rape me. He demanded I marry him and convert to Islam. I refused. I am not willing to deny Jesus and he said that if I would not agree he would kill me.” Rapists demanded that another girl’s family turn her over to them, claiming that she had recited the Islamic profession of faith during the rape and thus could not live among infidels.
The Qur’an teaches that Infidel women can be lawfully taken for sexual use (cf. its allowance for a man to take “captives of the right hand,” 4:3, 4:24, 23:1-6, 33:50, 70:30). The Qur’an says: “O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.” (33:59) The implication there is that if women do not cover themselves adequately with their outer garments, they may be abused, and that such abuse would be justified.
“Long prison sentences: Six Afghans had sexually abused a defenseless woman,” translated from “Hohe Haftstrafen: Sechs Afghanen hatten wehrlose Frau sexuell missbraucht,” Exxpress, March 31, 2023 (thanks to Medforth):
The judge described it as “enormous contempt for humanity”: Six Afghan defendants had to stand trial for two days at the Feldkirch Regional Court for the sexual abuse of a defenseless woman. The fugitives received prison sentences of 7 to 12.5 years. The sentences are not legally binding.
The men, aged 23, 26, 29, 36, 52 and 57, were accused of sexually assaulting a 45-year-old, heavily drunk woman in a refugee accommodation in Bludenz in February 2022. In court, two of the men denied having had sex with the woman. The other defendants spoke of consensual sex. The fact that all of the accused had intimate contact with the woman was substantiated by a corresponding report. The expert’s statements in court, which were based on the relevant analyses, left no doubt about this. According to court psychiatrist Reinhard Haller, the accused were all sane at the time of the crime, even if two have a “slight mental handicap” and alcohol was also involved among the men.
In their interrogations on the first day of the hearing on Wednesday, several of the accused emphasized that the woman had always been “in a normal condition” during her stay of several days in the refugee home. This was contradicted on Friday by a witness from Vienna who had also lived in the home in Bludenz in February 2022. The woman was “completely drunk,” he said — so bad she could barely speak or stand on her feet. The 45-year-old herself, who claims to be a heavy alcoholic, testified on Friday via zoom call in camera.
At the beginning of the trial, the prosecutor had described that the victim had been flown out of the apartment after a dispute with her partner at the time. The woman, heavily drunk, was looking for a place to sleep. At Dornbirn train station, the third accused noticed her, spoke to her and offered her a place to sleep with the first accused in a refugee home in Bludenz.
Arrived in Bludenz, the 45-year-old was offered alcohol in the room of the first accused. Subsequently, the first three accused are said to have committed sexual abuse. According to the public prosecutor’s office, the next day the three other men also abused the woman. According to the DNA traces examined, there must also be a seventh man who abused the woman, but this has not yet been identified, she said.
In their pleadings, the men’s defense attorneys questioned the defenselessness of the 45-year-old. After all, the police showed up in the refugee home, the woman gave clear answers to the officers and wanted to stay in the refugee home. It is also questionable whether the men could have recognized the woman’s defenselessness – if she was there. The lawyers say it would have been possible for the 45-year-old to leave the accommodation at any time.
In contrast, the presiding judge stated in her verdict that the woman had been proven to be in a state of defenselessness. In this case, their consent to sexual intercourse – the men had referred to this – is of no importance, the judge referred to the established case law. The act testifies to “enormous contempt for human beings” and makes the jury speechless, she said.
The range of sentences was five to 15 years, in one case five to 20 years. The fact that the men were under the influence of alcohol was rated as a mitigating factor, and in the case of two men their irreproachable character. The circumstances of the crime made things worse – namely that several men in a row had sex with the woman without protection. While the prosecutor made no statement, the defendants’ defense attorneys each asked for three days to think it over. The judgment is therefore not final.
