Masked Apostate Confronts Muslim On Slavery In Islam! Muhammed Ali

from Muslim Lantern - Official · host The Muslim Lantern

Muhammed Ali addresses the caller's claim about slavery in Islam by clarifying that Islamic 'milk al-yamin' (captives of war) differs fundamentally from conventional slavery. He explains that Islam did not introduce slavery but regulated existing practices, restricting captives only to prisoners of war while mandating humane treatment—feeding and clothing them as oneself, prohibiting overwork and physical punishment, and allowing them freedom through 'mukataba' (self-ransom). He argues that Islam's approach to war captives is more merciful than any other historical or contemporary system, and that abolishing the institution overnight would have created social chaos with millions suddenly homeless and resourceless.
