One major thrust of Islamic terror with slavery was against white people from the beginning. Islamic scholars even attribute incidents of this from Muhammad’s mouth.
“حدثني محمد بن عمرو قال : حدثنا أبو عاصم قال : حدثن عيسى ، عن ابن أبي نجيح ، عن مجاهد في قول الله : ( ائذن لي ولا تفتني ) ، قال : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : اغزوا تبوك ، تغنموا بنات الأصفر ونساء الروم ! فقال الجد : انذن لنا ، ولا تفتنا بالنساء
Muhammad said: “Go to Tabuk, you will seize the daughters of the blond-haired ones and the women of the Romans!” So, Al-Jed [the old man] said: “Give us permission, and do not tempt us with women.”
Al-Jami’ li Ahkam al-Qur’an, Imam al-Qurṭubī
Thus started many wars of Islamic enslavement of white people that began in the 600s and actually continues today. In so called ‘Al-Andalus’, the population was at once put in a contemptible position of slavery and thereafter subjected to endless raids. In one Portuguese city of Evora, in 1182, for example, 400 women were carried off to be enslaved in one day, just one of endless raids on the populace.
Yet in contrast to the church that historically claimed it was the reason these were driven back, the involvement of factors shows things were not so simple as Muslim marauders versus perfect Christian victims…
Hundreds of thousands of slaves from the Slavic lands poured into Charlemagne’s Empire, Bohemia and the states of Venice, Genoa and Pisa, who were in turn sold on to Muslim Spain, being captured by merchants of the enemy and the monastic orders such as the Teutonic Knights. In other words, Europe under Christianity commonly ABETTED this trade out of the church’s pure hatred for so-called ‘pagans’, who ALWAYS occupied the lowest rung of any society under the enemy:
Traditionally, the slave traders acquiring the slaves in Prague and transporting them to the slave market of al-Andalus are said to have been dominated by the Jewish Radhanite merchants. Pope Gelasius (492) permitted Jews to transport slaves from Gaul to Italy on the condition that they were Pagans, and by the time of Pope Gregory the Great (590-604), Jews were a dominating actor in the slave trade.

The slaves were transported to Al-Andalus via France. While the church discouraged [my note: lie] the sale of Christian slaves to Muslims, the sale of Pagans to Muslims was not met with such opposition. White European slaves were viewed as luxury goods in Al-Andalus, where they could be sold for as much as 1,000 dinars, a substantial price.

Prague in modern Czechia functioned as an important depot for this in regards to the Saqaliba (Slavs), Finnic pagan slaves and Romuva pagans of Lithuania and Prussia, as well as a general center for castration of eunuchs. The Bohemian Kingdom grew reasonably wealthy off of its trade with Muslim nations and patronage of slavery by the Catholic Church.
From the eighth to the eleventh century France was a major transfer point for White slaves to the Muslim world, with Rouen being the center for the selling of Irish and Flemish slaves.
They Were White and They Were Slaves, Michael Hoffman
Rouen in France was a major focal point for sale of white slaves and a major center of cultural xianity. It was also a cultural center with one of the largest synagogues in Europe. According to Islamic accounts, Jewish traders were primarily involved in the capture and castration of slaves, as they could freely navigate Christian and Muslim lands. Male Slavic slaves (Saqaliba), in particular, were advised to be castrated to make them amenable to their owners by several of the Islamic ‘golden age’ polymaths.
Muslims did not perform this operation themselves:
The country [of the Slavs] is long and wide… Half of their country … is raided by the Khurasanis [Central Asian Muslims] who take prisoners from it, while its northern half is raided by the Andalusians [Muslims of Spain] who buy them in Galicia, in France, in Lombardy and in Calabria so as to make them eunuchs, and thereafter they ferry them over to Egypt and Africa. All the Slavic eunuchs in the world come from Andalusia […] They are castrated near this country. The operation is performed by Jewish merchants.
Ibn Hawqal
Slaves of ‘Al-Andalus.
Slavery was a fundamental aspect of life in ‘Al-Andalus’, aka Islamic Spain. Slaves fulfilled positions as sex slaves, musicians and other kinds of cultural functions, but this depiction of them by historians as merely serving recreational or domestic functions (while ignoring the disturbing sexual dimension) obscures the fact they were also abused relentlessly, even being used as weights for bridges in construction or subjected to brutal gallery slavery. At various points, white and black slaves in Al-Andalus changed places as occupying the lowest and contemptible position on the social ladder.
Islamic rulers often played these racial divisions to their advantage. Many male slaves were organized into racialized armies of white and black people respectively to serve the rulers, a common feature of Islamic times.
On the other hand, relentless enslavement of white people and the practice of enslaving women to be ruling men’s sex slaves ironically radically changed the makeup of the highest Muslim upper classes in Spain. By the middle of Al-Andalus, most Spanish monarchs of the major kingdoms only had 1 percent Arab DNA or less. The majority of the rulers were described as blond and blue-eyed.
White people also formed a major element in slavery in the Islamic heartlands of Mesopotamia, though they typically were not plantation slaves as were their black counterparts, but they were still employed to construct massive irrigation works, worked as ship and brutal galley slaves, forced onto large scale agricultural projects and made to be domestic servants, in addition to the general sexual trade of women and boys. The Caliphates ruled from Baghdad and Egypt had the greatest need for slaves.
The Ottoman Empire terrorized many of its subject peoples by demanding they supply a constant supply of slaves from their own children called the devshirme, in addition to the ‘jizya’ tax. It was an large part of the state, where slaves were brainwashed into serving Islamic interests from a very young age. These slaves, named the Janissaries, often became the most radical enforcers of the Ottoman regime.
Ottoman slavery dealt prolifically in white and black slavery. Slaves were often funneled through Eastern Europe and often captured from the Balkans.
If a Patron (of the Barbary States) shall kill his Slave, for ought I could perceive, he suffers no more for it, than if he should kill his Horse.
William Okeley
As far as the Barbary States of Northern Africa that were aligned with the Ottoman Empire were concerned, raids on the Italian, Greek and Spanish coastlines made up many slaves of hundreds of thousands, but the galleons even menaced Ireland and England. The conditions were extremely brutal. Slaves were forced to live in so-called baglios with forty other men, only owning rags as their clothes, subsisting on as little as 300 calories a day, forced onto ships and violently abused and beaten, for anything from being a disappointment to refusing the sexual advances of their masters. On the ships, their ankles and wrists were bound by chains bolted to the ribbing of the ship. They were relentlessly whipped. The common response for a slave fainting from exhaustion was to “beat them… till they rise again”.
Slavery was still practiced in the Ottoman Empire as late as 1908.
The Mamluks in Egypt became so numerous that they fomented coups against other rulers. Albanians ruled Egypt by the 1800s.
By the ninth century, industrial-level slavery involved the peoples of Russia, Poland, Ukraine and Lithuania being enslaved en masse to serve in the Arab lands and Western Europe, which is something several Arab travellers themselves comment on as in their travels they were following slave routes. The conversion of the Mongols to Islam led to a new type of Islamic terror being directed against the Russians, compounded by later Ottoman intrusion into the area. Millions of Russians went missing in Islamic slave markets up until the 1830s, particularly in slave depots such as Khiva and the Crimea.
From the time of Islamic Spain and up until the mid-1600s, the English coast was constantly menaced by Arab pirates, for instance. The Muslims sent endless groups of slave traders and pirates to the North Sea to the point where European monarchies had to bribe Muslims to leave them alone.
The trade in white slaves [by Muslims] is not far behind black slaves… from the 1530s to the 1770s, it is estimated that between 1 million and 1.25 million white slaves were traded…
The Myth of the Andalusian Paradise, Dario Fernandez-Morera
It should be obvious that a major part of Islamic wealth, along with the filthy excrement of the church in Europe being obscenely wealthy, is from the enslavement of white people. We never hear any talk of ‘reparations’ here.
As time went on, much of the reason why Europeans began their imperial projects in relation to Islam has been thrown out altogether. We are only ‘taught’ that Europeans one day decided to carve up the Middle East for their own selfish reasons and that the relationship of Islam with Europe prior to any of this was ‘peaceful’. Meanwhile, the contribution of the Catholic Church itself in trading industrial levels of white people and fuelling Islamic slavery has been deleted out of history altogether, as Christianity occupies the false position of ‘defender of Europe’.
People must also note the dynamics of the enemy here. Time and time again, the accursed programs of Christianity and Islam have brought people beneath their wings into conflict and mixing racial karma together while the enemy was able to navigate freely to commit any abomination they wanted, something that even continues these days with the operations in Syria and Libya that butchered hundreds of thousands of people for no reason whatsoever and the endless invasions of Europe by migrants.
