Slavery In Quran

**saludada** · 07-05-2006

There is a general consensus in the Muslim world that Slavery is allowed though not encouraged in Islam.

Slavery is seen and you too would agree is unjust and a gross voilation of human Rights!! But Islam allows it. How do you deal with this moral dilemma.

Opinions are welcomed but if you are thinking of copy pasting something from some webpage - PLEASE DONT - just post the links.

Hi achnod,

I personally would never keep a slave, and Br. Muhammad explained it...

Hi Achnod,

May I just ask you something, now be patient with me.

List or tell me some of the things that you dislike about slavery.

Your not going to entertain the thought, yet u bothered to come here, good one. That proves a persons ignorance, not willing to learn.

couldn't slavery be banned in an Islamic country by the head of state?by some taazir ruling?

Bernard Lewis said it couldn't be so I am asking.

The fatwaa team headed by Shaykh Abdullah Al-Fakeeh and Shaykh Hassan Al-Ahameed (from islamweb.net) were also asked similiar question to which they replied:

After this introduction we dare saying that Islam is the freer of slaves and the equitable with human beings. We are very proud of this. So, if the world now gets together and forbids slavery, Islam will welcome such an initiative as it fits into its aims and objectives. It is lawful for the Muslim leader to sign a convention forbidding slavery.

But this does not mean that slavery was abrogated definitely and has become legally inexistent. If the world returns back to enslaving prisoners of war, Muslims will treat their enemies equally.
