Uploaded by: lostprophet786
Video Description:
A lecture given by Sayed Ammar Nakshawani in Stanmore Hujjat Imambargah in 2006.
In this lecture, Sayed Ammar talks about Slavery in various periods of times, and how Slavery was a means of exploitations for those who owned them, for exmaple in the times of the Romans, it is said that there was more slaves then free people. Sayed Ammar then goes on to say how Islam raised the
status of the slaves to that of their masters. ________________________________________ Slavery in Islam is often an aspect which is criticised by the non-muslims, who, blinded by their ignorance, are unable to grasp the situation of the Arab regions during which Islam was introduced. Slavery co
uld not be abolished by the Holy Prophet as Slavery was deeply integrated in the Arabian economy, and abolishing slavery would have meant that the Economy crumble, thus making many materialistic people against the teachings of Islam. Instead, Islam reformed and raised the status of the slaves throug
h the Holy Prophet. 16 of the martyrs in Karbala where slaves. Being a slave of the Family of the Prophet was not opression, but was freedom. ARTICLES FOR FURTHER READING: Answering-Christianity Articles on Slavery(Must-read!!): http://www.answering-christianity.com/ac18.htm#links Islamic and C

if you commit a sin ... ( 1 year ago by hellophoenix)
if you commit a sin, you'd free a slave, if you want to pay Zakat (Islamic taxes) you'd free a salves; If a master have a child from his slave, he must free her and the child is like one of his own. Bait Al Mal ( equivalent of the finance ministry) would give money to free slaves,,etc,,,,meaning it was going to be abolish gradually. Also, Islam forbids alcohol and that came also gradually.

There was no Leila in Karbala as Ayatollah says in the truth about Hosseins Revolt: "Another example of tahrif in the accounts of 'Ashura' is the famous story of Layla, the mother of Hadrat 'Ali' Akbar, a story that is not supported even by a single work of history. Of course, Ali' Akbar had a mother whose name was Layla, but not a single historical work has stated that Layla was present at Karbala'....

I Have read that book by Ayatollah Motahheri, may Allah bless his soul. It is very interesting. Whether or not I agree with everything Motahheri states I am not sure, I need to research this issue further and hear opinions of other prominent Maraja. Thank you for dropping by.

If you could find out why Leila wasnt present in Karbala i would highly appreciate it

Ayatollah Motahheri (ra) gave four sermons called 'Ashura - Misrepresentations and Distortions', these Sermons have been translated into english and compiled into a book. This book can be read at: al-islam. org/al-tawhid/ashura/ You may find what you are looking for if you go through the sermons of Motahheri thoroughly.

So you really think ... ( 9 months ago by Alkawther)
So you really think you are free in your society/democracy? Oh no, if you wanna use the word slavery in that term as you do now, you are a slave of the law in your country. If you don't pay tax you will be punished. We are all slaves, but some slaves dont have rights, others do. Most of them who have rights are protected by a law, and Islam has a law that protect the slaves, like a democracy has.
Islam is a true gift to humanity.

LOL!!! I think the topic of quranic slavery is most fascinating - it is hilarious to hear muslims explain away the parts of the quran that allow slavery.
Neither Islam, ... ( 9 months ago by ahussami)
Neither Islam, Christianity, nor Judaism banned slavery.
There are two stupid point of view on this forum: One, Islam is bad because it did not ban slavery; Two, Islam did ban slavery.

Islam did NOT ban slavery, it REFORMED slavery.

I know that. what I was saying is that those who try to say otherwise are apologists.

There is a DIFFERENCE between following the law of your society and being a SLAVE. As a citizen you have no choice to pay taxes but at least you get paid for your wages. As a slave you don't even get wages. Islam is a gift if you are the slave master and not the slave.

the British were the biggest purveyors of salvery under the direct supervision of the Qween.
Why you treat me as ... ( 8 months ago by ahussami)
Why you treat me as muslim. Is it because of my name?
Next time, sir, do not label people by their name.
Back to the subject od slavery: Islam did not ban slavery, but for Islam to legislate 15 centuries ago that the son of a slave is free, was a very revolutionalry concept.
You are calling Mohammad a bad name and you made that part of your screen name. why?

the british fleet blockaded africas coast to prevent arab slavers from taking more africans .Great Britain banned slavery in the 1830's and saudi was the last in 1971
YOU FUCKING SHITSLAM LIAR!!
Your screen name ... ( 7 months ago by ahussami)
Your screen name tells me that you are abouut insulting a certain religion.
Compared to other religions of the same period, Islam fares.
Religion however should never interfere in politics, neither should politics.
Stop this nonsense about the British. Drug dealing salvery, genocide(Native Americans..to name but one) and the rest of vices were sponsered or condoned by the Queen. such stuff really contributed to the wealth of the Brits.Remember the Opium war?
If you do not ... ( 7 months ago by ahussami)
If you do not believe me, just check what the Brits did to Basra and the genocide against the Sunnis in Basra under the supervision of the Brits, if not at their hand directly. My friend you watch a lot of movies. If the Brits really did block the salve traffic finally after 300 years of unimpeded traffic, it must have been that there was no more money to make out of it.
Look at what the Christians did to the Native Americans. What a shame.
If Islam is bad why ... ( 6 months ago by cadillacdepot)
If Islam is bad why:
1- we are taking over your women and your men coming towards our women?
2- California has 1/2 of entire europe as prisoners.
3- The gays population is growing rapidly in the west and europe.
Muslims have the lowest divorce rate,the lowest crime rate,lowest rate when it comes to Alcohol and the lowest rate when it comes to sexual diseases. yet, Muslims have the highest education rate in the entire world.

nzingamina said 'You seem to be missing the BIGGER picture. Slavery was the backbone of US economy but was eventually abolished because PEOPLE realized it was bad." Are you kidding me? Slavery was abolished in US because the North needed labor to work in the factories and they needed those slaves from the South. Everything happens (in human history) based on supply and demand.
Actually that is ... ( 5 months ago by nzingamina)
Actually that is true in part...but ending slavery would of never been a consideration had there been no abolitionist movement that recognized that enslaving another human being is bad. Islam is like 200 years behind that concept and honestly...it is scary when someone thinks that it is good to be a slave to another man...whether prophet or elitist.

islam came about 1200 years b4 1830 when arabia was the power of the world
Islamic countries ... ( 1 week ago by swimagain)
Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia should be forced to pay half their oil wealth for their barbaric and savage crimes during the trans sahara and east African slavery. Many people who call themselves muslims lie and deny these horrendous facts. The decendents of the 140 million plus African victims should recieve this compensation.
