 of ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) in 2014\, there has been much de
 bate within the media about whether ISIS is “Islamic” or not.  Storie
 s about ISIS policies towards women and slavery and statistics of women le
 aving their home countries to join ISIS as “jihadi brides” have prolif
 erated in the news media.  Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl\, who is one of the wo
 rld’s leading authorities on Islamic law\, will be analyzing the salient
  issues of ISIS’s enslavement of and trafficking in women in the context
  of the normative discourses of Islam and will demonstrate that ISIS ideol
