Abdullah Yusef Ali translation of the Koran, given to me by a Syrian professor. Sura 33.50 We have made lawful to thee thy wives to whom thou hast paid their dowers; and those whom thy right hand possesses. Sura 4.24 Also (prohibited are) women already married, EXCEPT those whom your right hand possesses.
I didn't say that all Orthodox Muslims would interpret this as 'go-ahead' to capture and rape women...but these are the two Suras pointed out to me by my Syrian aquaintance, and former professor, as the Koranic justification used by Islamist slavers in Sudan and by the Islamists in Egypt that force girls to marry/have sex with them.
