How Muhammad raped the captive Safiyah at the Battle of Khaybar

The religion propagated in the name of Islam is actually a collection of deeds of a ruthless, lustful and warlike man. Muhammad, whom the followers of Islam blindly worship as a ‘Messenger’, was a ruthless warlord who killed innocent people through war and looted their property and women. A blatant example of this is the incident of Safiyyah bint Huwayh in the Battle of Khaibar. The Islamic hadiths themselves testify to this cruelty, which would arouse hatred in the heart of any civilized person. Muhammad was a looter, rapist and exploiter of women, whose religion is a disgrace to humanity.

First, let’s look at what is said in Sunan Abu Dawud, Hadith 2995. Anas ibn Malik reports that the Muslims led by Muhammad attacked Khaybar. Allah supposedly made this fortress conquerable, but it was actually the result of Muhammad’s bloodthirsty attack! There, Muhammad is told about the beauty of Safiyah, the daughter of Huwayh. This woman was newly married, and her husband was brutally killed by Muhammad’s men in this battle. What cruelty! Immediately after her husband died, Muhammad ‘chosen this woman for himself’. He set out with her, and when he reached a place called Saddus-Sahba, he waited for her menstruation to end. Then? Muhammad ‘remained alone’ with her, that is, had sexual relations. Is this the work of a religious leader? No, it is the work of a warlike plunderer who enjoyed women as spoils of war. This desire of Muhammad shows that the religion called Islam is actually a ruse to fulfill his personal desires.

Now let’s go to Hadith 4200 of Sahih Bukhari. Anas narrated that Muhammad attacked Khaybar and shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’, saying, ‘Khaybar has been destroyed’. How inhuman! He killed the warriors, captured children and women. Safiyah was first distributed among the Dahiyyatul Kalbi, but later Muhammad took her himself. He considered her release as ‘mahr’ – that is, he ‘freed’ her and married her. But this is a ruse! Killing her husband, capturing her, and then ‘marrying’ her is tantamount to rape. Seeing this act of Muhammad, it is understood that he was a ruthless swordsman who plundered in the name of religion. These Islamic hadiths themselves prove that Muhammad’s religion is not one of peace, but rather one of violence, murder, and the exploitation of women.

In more detail, Sahih Bukhari, Book 8, Hadith 371, states that after the conquest of Khaibar, the captives were gathered. Dihya asked for a slave girl, and took Safiyah. But another man came and said, “O Prophet of Allah! Are you giving Safiyah, the leader of Banu Qurayza and Banu Nadir, to Dihya? She is worthy of you!” Muhammad was overcome with lust upon seeing her and said to Dihya, “Take another slave girl.” Then he ‘freed’ Safiyah and married her. How ridiculous! Killing her husband, destroying her family, and then ‘marrying’ her is a violent conquest. It is clear from this character of Muhammad that he was a lustful warlord who viewed women as spoils of war. The followers of Islam pass this off as ‘kindness’, but to rational people it is a heinous crime.

These events make it clear that Muhammad’s Islam was not a spiritual religion, but rather a game of personal lust and power. He fought and killed innocents, enslaved their women, and took the beautiful ones to his harem. Women like Safiyah were his victims, and after the death of their husbands, they became objects of Muhammad’s sexual pleasure. To call such a person a ‘holy prophet’ is an insult to humanity! Reading these hadiths of Islam, one can understand why this religion is misogynistic, violent, and barbaric. I firmly say: Muhammad was a criminal, and his religion is a curse to the world. Those who still follow Islam blind themselves by denying these truths. It is time to reject this false religion!
