Slavery in Islam?
Many people don't know that the Qur'an supports several kinds of slavery:
“We have made lawful to you your wives to whom you have given their due compensation and those your right hand possesses from what Allah has returned to you [of captives]” (Qur’an 33:50).
In times of a war, it is allowed to take slaves. The Qur’an mentions that slaves are “that which your hands own”. The seventh century rules in the Qur'an are a sharp contrast to our modern society, where they are in conflict with human rights.
Christianity is free from such lower moral values, because it is powered by the Holy Spirit. Christians in 19th century became liberators of the slaves.
