Armin dissects Dr. Shabir Ally's apologism for slavery in the Quran. He also examines some of the scripture from which Islamic slavery is derived. Armin mentions that Muhammad himself had salves. Even if Muhammad couldn't stop it, why not at least not have slaves himself? Is that too much to ask for someone who is supposed to be the guide for all time? Also, why not abolish slavery when he abolished idol worship, which their entire economy was dependant on? Armin also calls out attempts to redefine slavery to suggest that slavery during Muhammad's time was voluntary and similar to forms of employment today. This is insane given that the Quran and Hadith clearly mention Muslims capturing slaves in their battles and that Muhammad raped his slaves. Armin wonders why the woke mob are not going after Islam for this. When statues of yesterday's slave owners are being toppled, today's legitimatization of slavery is being tolerated.
Slavery In Islam | Dr. Shabir Ally (Let the Quran Speak)
Description: The Quran discusses slavery at length, and though it recommends freeing slaves and sets limits in terms of how the enslaved are treated, it doesn’t actually prohibit slavery. Slavery was a normal part of life in Arabia, and was practiced for centuries afterwards. But slavery, as it was practiced, was somewhat different from what we know of slavery in America. In some circumstances, for example, slaves could earn money or inherit or gain power or influence over others. How do we understand the practice of slavery in Muslim societies? Does Islam support slavery? Join Dr. Shabir Ally for part 1 of this discussion!
