A Fatwa No.64 dated Jan 29, 2015 issued by the Islamic State's Committee of Research and Fatwas has come to light. This fatwa enlists the rules to be followed for having sex with the women enslaved by the extremist group

According to a Reuters report, the fatwa was part of a huge trove of documents captured by the US Special Operations Forces during a raid of a top Islamic State official in Syria in May.

The fatwa starts with a question that there have been some violations in the treatment of female slaves and is there any warning pertaining to this. It then goes on to say that the list will clarify the rules pertaining to the captured prisoners.

The fatwa lists 15 guidelines with explicit instructions to the owners on the do's and don'ts to have sexual intercourse with their slaves.

This includes bans on a father and son having intercourse with the same female slave; and the owner of a mother and daughter having sex with both. The fatwa allows the owner of sisters to have intercourse with just one.

The fatwa also says that the owner should show compassion towards the female slaves and should not sell the slave to someone he knows will treat her badly.
