Original Note:
When used during war "sebaya" describes the spoils of war or sex slave. It comes from the Koran. https://www.alhakam.org/what-is-the-islamic-teachings-on-female-prisoners-of-war/ “They laughed and jeered at us, saying ‘You are our sabaya.’ I didn’t know what that word meant,” she said. Later on, the local Islamic State leader explained it meant slave." https://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/14/world/middleeast/isis-enshrines-a-theology-of-rape.html
