Does quran preach slavery?

Answer 1

no religion advocates or preaches anything against humanity............its the people who misrepresent every religion!!!!

Answer 2

No, Islam was the Religion that wanted to eradicate slavery, so much so that it was ordered that if any person so much as touched the face of his servant or ''slave'' then he had to let them go.

When Islam talks about ''slaves'' it's not in the way that the western slavery was, this is what god says about slavery in the Quran :

2:177] “Righteousness is not turning your faces towards the east or the west. Righteous are those who believe in GOD, the Last Day, the angels, the scripture, and the prophets; and they give the money, cheerfully, to the relatives, the orphans, the needy, the traveling alien, the beggars, and to free the slaves; and they observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) and give the obligatory charity (Zakat); and they keep their word whenever they make a promise; and they steadfastly persevere in the face of persecution, hardship, and war. These are the truthful; these are the righteous.”

Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) says :

. . . yield obedience to my successor, although he may be an Abyssinian slave.

He will not enter paradise who behaveth ill to his slaves. The companions said, "O Apostle of God! Have you not told us, that there will be a great many slaves and orphans amongst your disciples?" He said, "Yes; then be kind to them as your own children, and give them to eat of what you eat yourselves. The slaves that say their prayers are your brothers."

[The first call to prayer at the Quba mosque built by Prophet Muhammad was given in 622 by Bilal -- a black slave freed by the Prophet.]

The Prophet said: 'Your slaves are your brethren; therefore whoever has a brother who depends upon him must feed and clothe him in the way he feeds and clothes himself; and should not impose upon him tasks which exceed his capacity; should you ask them to do such things, then you are obliged to help them.'

There is another teaching which enjoins respect for the human dignity of slaves: 'Let none of you say, "This man, or this woman, is my slave". He must rather say: "This is my man, and this my woman."' Putting into relief the provisional character of social ties and the authority exercised by slaveowners over their slaves, the Prophet said: 'It is true that God has made you their masters, but, had He so wished, He could equally well have made you their slaves.'

Answer 3

Both the Old and The New Testament and the Quran talks about slaves - it was in the eras, you know. However, unlike most peoples beliefs, the Quran also preach equality, freedom and democracy - more so than the Bible, as far as I know.

Answer 4

Certainly yes Qur'an preach all humans including slaves.But in the Qur'an Allah tha only one God hates slavery.So in Muhammad pbuh era,the slaves were freed.Islam is given by God for all humans in this world by giving the life guide vcalled Qur'an..All people who follow Islam will have a safety and happy life in this world and in the life after death in heaven eternally. as the God's reward for the loyal followers.

Answer 5

Does it matter? It preaches HATE! The Koran is the book of the Devil, and all of it's followers will burn in the pits of HELL. All Muslims aren't terrorists, but all terrorists are MUSLIMS. Religion of peace my ***!!! Muslims are demonic spirits here to rule the world and any of it's followers are heathens.

Answer 6

Mohammed didnt keep any slavery. He asked every muslim to give freedom to slaves. Him selves, bought slaves and gave them thier freedom.

Answer 7

Slaves can request and get their freedom from their Muslim Masters:

Yes slaves were taken from the blood-thirsty and hostile enemies, but they were also given the right to get their freedom when ever they want. The Noble Quran not only allows slaves to request their freedom from their Muslim masters, but also orders the Muslim masters to pay the slaves money to help them stand on their feet and to be able to face life with a good jump start.

Let us look at Noble Verse 24:33 "Let those who find not the wherewithal for marriage keep themselves chaste, until God gives them means out of His grace. And if any of your slaves ask for a deed in writing (to enable them to earn their freedom for a certain sum), give them such a deed if ye know any good in them: yea, give them something yourselves out of the means which God has given to you. But force not your maids to prostitution when they desire chastity, in order that ye may make a gain in the goods of this life. But if anyone compels them, yet, after such compulsion, is God, Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful (to them)," In this Noble Verse, we see that if a slave requests his freedom from his Muslim master, then his master not only must help him earn his freedom if there is good in the Slave, but also pay him money so the slave can have a good start in his free life.

Islam is a very merciful religion on slaves. Islam came and fought many bloody battles against the Arabs who believed in slavery and who brutally enslaved many people. Islam also sees the importance of liberating slaves, and had helped to gradually liberate slaves until all of them were ultimately freed. Islam allows for any slave to request from his Muslim owner his freedom, and orders the Muslim owner to grant that slave his freedom and to pay him money on top of it to help him get a good start in his new free life
