In the 21st century, many Islamist groups, such as Boko Haram, or ISIS, have captured and enslaved women and children, often for sexual slavery.^[1][2] In 2014 in particular, both groups organised mass kidnappings of large numbers of girls and younger women.^[3][4] They say that they lead a war against "infidels".

The fighters get the enslaved girls and women as a compensation for their fighting to rebuild the Caliphate.
