Slavery in Islam – Introduction

A common lie one hears from Muslims is that Islam doesn’t condone slavery.

The truth is, Islam has always mandated slavery. In the Qu’ran, Allah even says it as a precondition of existing!

 

وَٱللَّهُ فَضَّلَ بَعۡضَكُمۡ عَلَىٰ بَعۡضࣲ فِی ٱلرِّزۡقِۚ فَمَا ٱلَّذِینَ فُضِّلُوا۟ بِرَاۤدِّی رِزۡقِهِمۡ عَلَىٰ مَا مَلَكَتۡ أَیۡمَـٰنُهُمۡ فَهُمۡ فِیهِ سَوَاۤءٌۚ أَفَبِنِعۡمَةِ ٱللَّهِ یَجۡحَدُونَ

And Allah has preferred some of you over others in provisions. But those who were preferred will not hand over their provision to their possessed slaves, just so they are equal in things. Then, is it the favor of Allah that they [the unbelievers] deny?

Qu’ran 16:71

 

If very few in the West read the Bible, no one reads the Qu’ran.

White people are inundated with lies about how any society worth living in was built by slaves, therefore they owe their existence to slaves, yet are taught to believe Islam is an ‘anti-slavery’ religion. Nothing could be further from the truth!

The hadith, which are guidelines for how Muslims are meant to behave based on observations of what Muhammad did, are even worse. Just look at what one book from one scholar can tell us about slavery:

 

فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم خَدَمٌ

Muhammad acquired some slaves.

Book 20, Hadith 61, Sunan Abi Dawud, Abu Dawud

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ الشَّعْبِيِّ، قَالَ كَانَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم سَهْمٌ يُدْعَى الصَّفِيَّ إِنْ شَاءَ عَبْدًا وَإِنْ شَاءَ أَمَةً وَإِنْ شَاءَ فَرَسًا يَخْتَارُهُ قَبْلَ الْخُمُسِ ‏

Amir Al Sha’bi said “Muhammad had a special portion in the booty called the safi. If he desired it, he could seize a slave, if he desired, it, he could seize a slave girl or if he desired it, a horse. He would choose it before taking out the fifth (of the spoils).

 Book 20, Hadith 64, Sunan Abi Dawud, Abu Dawud

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَلاَّدٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزُ بْنُ أَسَدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ وَقَعَ فِي سَهْمِ دِحْيَةَ جَارِيَةٌ جَمِيلَةٌ فَاشْتَرَاهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِسَبْعَةِ أَرْؤُسٍ ثُمَّ دَفَعَهَا إِلَى أُمِّ سُلَيْمٍ تَصْنَعُهَا وَتُهَيِّئُهَا قَالَ حَمَّادٌ وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ وَتَعْتَدُّ فِي بَيْتِهَا صَفِيَّةُ بِنْتُ حُيَىٍّ

حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، – الْمَعْنَى – قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ جُمِعَ السَّبْىُ – يَعْنِي بِخَيْبَرَ – فَجَاءَ دِحْيَةُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَعْطِنِي جَارِيَةً مِنَ السَّبْىِ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏”‏ اذْهَبْ فَخُذْ جَارِيَةً ‏”‏ ‏.‏ فَأَخَذَ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتَ حُيَىٍّ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ أَعْطَيْتَ دِحْيَةَ – قَالَ يَعْقُوبُ – صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتَ حُيَىٍّ سَيِّدَةَ قُرَيْظَةَ وَالنَّضِيرِ – ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا – مَا تَصْلُحُ إِلاَّ لَكَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏”‏ ادْعُوهُ بِهَا ‏”‏ ‏.‏ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ لَهُ ‏”‏ خُذْ جَارِيَةً مِنَ السَّبْىِ غَيْرَهَا ‏”‏ ‏.‏ وَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا ‏

Muhammad ibn Khallad Al-Bahili narrated to us, Bahz ibn Asad narrated to us, Hammad informed us, from Thabit, from Anas, who said:

“A beautiful slave girl fell into the share of Dihyah, and Muhammad bought her for seven slaves, then he gave her to Umm Sulaim to prepare her and to get her ready for marriage. Hammad said – I believe he said – ‘And she, Safiyyah, daughter of Huyayy, should observe her waiting period in her house.'”

Dawud ibn Mu’adh narrated to us, Abdul-Warith narrated to us, and Ya’qub ibn Ibrahim narrated to us (with the same meaning), he said: Ibn ‘Ulayyah narrated to us, from Abdul-Aziz ibn Suhayb, from Anas, who said:

“The captives were gathered (meaning at Khaybar). Dihyah came and said, ‘O Muhammad, give me a slave girl from among the captives.’ He said, ‘Go and take a slave girl.’ So he took Safiyyah, daughter of Huyayy. Then, a man came to the prophet and said, ‘O Muhammad, you gave Safiyyah, the mistress of Qurayza and Nadir, daughter of Huyyay, to Dihyah, yet she is only suitable for you.’

So Muhammad said, ‘Call him with her.’ When Muhammad saw her, he said to him, ‘Take another slave girl from among the captives instead of her.’ And Muhammad freed her and married her.”

Book 20, Hadith 70-71, Sunan Abi Dawud, Abu Dawud

 

Safiyyah, one of the wives of ‘Muhammad’, was a slave. A war captive he stole from someone else. Even this tiny incident is just the tip of the iceberg with slavery in Islam.

Truthfully, even ‘Allah’ expects the followers of Islam to name themselves as slaves. This is in contrast to Satan, who always stood for freedom and has been attacked by all of these slave programs viciously and copiously.

While the West constantly rakes the coals of Trans-Atlantic slavery, in a number of Muslim countries, slavery is still in operation. 320,000 slaves exist in Eritrea and 150,000 slaves still exist in Mauretania, mostly blacks enslaved by lighter-skinned Arabs. 180,000 slaves are reported to be present in Yemen and 47,000 slaves were noted to exist in Libya. Some organizations claim up to 500,000 to 1,000,000 people exist as modern slaves in Bangladesh.

These are just some of the endless and unrelenting crimes have gone on since the inception of this ‘religion’. Lust for slavery in Islam is unending. Muslim states followed these instructions to the letter.

Historically, it took the British Empire and other European empires to even begin to dent the Islamic trade in slaves.

‘ONLY IN WAR’

One big excuse that people without a brain accept is that Muslims are ‘only’ allowed to take slaves when in war. This view prevails at most western universities.

For some reason, even though the logic goes that all slavery is evil, this excuse is ‘accepted’ by many westerners. Even this is a total and utter lie.

Muhammad himself bought and then had sex with an xian slave called Mariya who was a Copt from Egypt. Where did Mariya come from? Abu Bakr, Aisha’s father, bought her from al-Muqawqis, the ruler of Egypt (likely the Christian patriarch of the time) and GAVE her to Muhammad…

 

Muhammad had many male and female slaves.  He used to buy and sell them, but he purchased more slaves then he sold.  He once sold one black slave for two.  His purchases of slaves were more than he sold.

Zad al-Ma’ad, Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya

 

This should prove beyond doubt this is a huge complex of lying and stupidity. Not only that, but the system of slavery was so vast in Islam that it has to be separated by creed…
