\"\"1. Islamic principle: People are born free, slavery is temporary.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

The Quran states,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cO mankind, indeed We have created you from a male (Adam) and a female (Eve) and made you into various families and tribes that you may know one another.  Indeed, the most honored of you in God\u2019s sight is the most pious of you.\u201d <\/strong><\/span><\/span>(Quran 49:13)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Prophet of Islam declared,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018All of you are from Adam and Adam was created from dust.\u2019<\/strong><\/span><\/span>[1]<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The principle that human beings are born free and slavery is accidental is accepted by all the scholars of Islam.  Few important consequences of this principle are:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Voluntary slavery is not allowed.  A free person cannot become a slave even if he wants to.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • A free person cannot be enslaved.  The interesting point is that Muslim theologians did not decide it, but the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, may God praise him, declared it to be a sin 1400 years ago.  He said, \u201cThere are three types of people against whom I shall myself be a plaintiff on the Day of Judgement.  Of these three, one is he who enslaves a free man, then sells him, and consumes this money.\u201d[2]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • An unclaimed child with unknown parentage was to be treated as a free person even if the child appeared to have slave parents.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    2. A slave was granted respect and human dignity.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

    The very word \u201cslave\u201d in English has extremely negative connotations of barbaric treatment.  Compare it with how the Prophet of Mercy spoke about slaves 1400 years ago,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \u201cYour slaves are your brothers! God has placed them in your care.  So, whose brother is under his care, he should feed him what he eats and dress him how he dresses.  And do not burden them beyond their capacities; but if you burden them (with an unbearable burden), then help them (by sharing their extra burden).\u201d<\/span><\/span>[3]<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \u201cWhen the servant of anyone amongst you prepares food for him and has undergone its hardship of heat and smoke, he should make him (the servant) sit along with him and make him eat (along with him), and if he does not do that, then he should spare some portion for him.\u201d<\/span><\/span>[4]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The Prophet of Mercy forbade hitting the slaves.  He declared that the atonement of hitting or slapping a slave is to set him free[5].<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Moreover, a slave is not be addressed with hurtful words.  The Prophet of Mercy stated not to address them as, \u2018<\/span>My slave boy or my slave girl.\u201d<\/span><\/span> He said, <\/span>\u201cAll of you are slaves of God!\u201d Address them with, \u201cO my young man, O my young lady!\u201d<\/span><\/span>[6]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Umar ibn al-Khattab, the second ruler-caliph of Islam, was so fond of Salim, a freed slave that he wished to appoint Salim to be the ruler-caliph if he were alive.  Salim used to lead the Muslims in prayer, which is considered an honor in Islamic tradition.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    3. Islam did not initiate the system of slavery.  It existed in Judaism, Christianity, India, and China before Islam.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

    Since the earliest times, Islam had opened doors to free slaves and to eventually end slavery.  The Islamic paradigm did not ignore the realities of the world, nor did it endorse it.  Islam regulated it.  As Annemarie Schimmel, a German scholar, noted, \u201c\u2026therefore slavery is theoretically doomed to disappear with the expansion of Islam.\u201d[7]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Shariah Law severely limited the channels in which the number of slaves could multiply.  The only source of slavery was captives of legitimate war and the children born to slave parents.  In case of war, the captives were not required to be enslaved.  The Muslim scripture laid other options of dealing with them as well:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Unconditional freedom (Quran 47:4)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
    • Ransom (Quran 47:4)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      After limiting the sources of new slaves, Islamic law dealt with the reality of the existing slaves.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      4.  Islam granted equal religious rights to the free and the slave and in most civil matters.  Their special laws were to make their jobs easier.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

      Slaves were at the same footing of a freeman in terms of religious obligations, as well as reward and punishment from God.  A slave\u2019s testimony was considered acceptable.  A slave had right to personal belongings and property.  Slaves were equal in retribution of blood-money.  They were to be helped to legally win their freedom if they so chose through a mechanism known as mukataba<\/em> and tadbeer<\/em>.  This mechanism is enshrined in the Muslim scripture by God in 24:33.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      5.  Islam made freeing slaves an act of worship pleasing to God.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

      It set freeing of slaves as atonement of sins and for specific acts of transgression.  Muslims were encouraged to willingly set slaves free to release themselves from the torment of Hell Fire.  The state was also a source of setting the slaves free as Islamic Law dictates that zakah<\/em> \u2013 obligatory charity given by wealthy Muslims to the state – is to be spend on setting slaves free among other things (Quran 9:60).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      6. Islam integrated slaves into the mainstream society.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

      The issue of integration of freed slaves into the mainstream society has been discussed by some contemporary scholars.  The Islamic solution was to integrate them into the society by making them part of the tribes and families.  The system was known as \u201cwala<\/em>.\u201d The Prophet of Islam said, \u2018Freeing slaves is like establishing relations by blood.\u2019[8]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      Some Historical Observations<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

      1.  Abul Ala Maududi writes in his paper, \u2018The Position of Slavery in Islam,\u2019 \u201cThe Prophet alone liberated as many as 63 slaves.  The number of slaves freed by \u2018Aishah was 67, \u2018Abbas liberated 70, \u2018Abd Allah ibn \u2018Umar liberated one thousand, and \u2018Abd al-Rahman purchased thirty thousand and set them free.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      2.  \u201cZaid, the freedman of the Prophet, was often entrusted with the command of troops, and the noblest captains served under him without demur; and his son \u2018Os\u00e2ma was honored with the leadership of the expedition sent by Ab\u00fb Bakr against the Greeks.  Kutb ud-d\u00een, the first king of Delhi, and the true founder, therefore, of the Musulman empire in India, was a slave.\u201d[9]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      3.  \u201cEven ordinary domestic slaves were often better fed, clothed, and protected than many free men and women.\u201d[10]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      4.  \u201cThe entire history of Islam proves that slaves could occupy any office, and many former military slaves, usually recruited from among the Central Asian Turks, became military leaders and often even rulers as in eastern Iran, India (the Slave Dynasty of Delhi), and medieval Egypt (the Mamluks).\u201d[11]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      5.  \u201c\u2026the exclusivity of the owner-slave relationship that typifies slavery systems was never part of Ottoman realities.  The \u015eeriat-based (Shariah-based) court system breached that exclusivity by allowing slaves to complain of ill-treatment, which could lead to forced manumission.  Although, as we have seen, the courts were reluctant to intervene in owner-slave relations, and the state was careful not to force owners to manumit slaves involuntarily, an arbitration mechanism was at all times available in the background, able if necessary to step into that relationship.\u201d[12]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      6.  \u201cAs for Saudi Arabia\u2019s slaves, they shared the same food, clothes and homes as their owners and many of them became rulers of vast regions in the land and were active in the running of the state.\u201d[13]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

      7.  \u201c\u2026Saudi Arabia\u2019s late abolition of slavery.  Slavery in Saudi Arabia was abolished in 1962\u2026that is because Saudi Arabia did not exist as a modern state before 1932, which means it took thirty years after its creation to end slavery, and that without a civil war.\u201d[14]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
