This photograph was taken some where in East Africa, but have not yet found details on who took it and precisely where it was taken. It looks to have been taken in the late-19th or very early-20th century. Arabized Africans played a major role in the Arab slave trade. These African women, especially the one on the right, look to have been recently captured for sale as slaves.

Eunuchs:  All over the Islamic world, the conquered were castrated, including in India.  This was done so men could guard harems, provide carnal indulgence for rulers, give devotion to the ruler as they had no hope of a family of their own and of course, this quickly reduced the breeding stock of the conquered.   Castration was a common practice throughout Muslim rule possibly contributing to the DECLINE in India’s population from 200 million in 1000 CE to 170 million in 1500 CE (Khan p 314)

Once Sultan Bakhtiyar Khilji conquered Bengal in 1205, it became a leading supplier of castrated slaves.  This remained the case into the Mogul period (1526-1857). 
Akbar the Great (1556-1605) owned eunuchs.  Said Khan Chaghtai owned 1,200 eunuchs  (an official of Akbar’s son Jahangir)!  In Aurangzeb’s reign, in 1659 at Golkunda (Hyderabad), 22, 000 boys were emasculated and given to Muslim rulers and governors or sold. (Khan 313).

Sultan Alauddin Khilji (r 1296-1316)  had 50,000 boys in his personal service;  Sultan Muhammad Tughlaq (r1325-51) had 20,000 and Sultan Firoz Tughlaq (r 1351-1388) had 40,000 (Firoz Tulghlaq liked to collect boys in any way  and had 180,000 slaves in total (Lal [c] p 542).  Several commanders under various sultans were eunuchs.   Muslim  historians record the ‘infatuation’ of sultans Mahmud Ghazni, Qutbuddin Aibak, and Sikandar Lodi –for handsome young boys!  Sultan Mahmud was infatuated by his Hindu commander  Tilak (Khan p 314)

Which past?

There is still slavery in Sudan, Yemen, Saudi Arabia , Mauritania and now in Syria under ISIS.

The Al-Akhdam is a social group in Yemen, distinguished by its African features. They are considered to be at the very bottom of the societal ladder. The exact origins of Al-Akhdam are uncertain. One popular tradition says that they are descendants of people who accompanied the Abyssinian army during an occupation in the pre-Islamic period. However their name probably comes from khadem, that in Arabic means servant. That could suggest that they could be descendants of African slaves sold and bought for centuries in Yemen.

Here is a Kuwaiti woman and Muslim preaching on the bennefits of restarting the Islamic slaving culture

KUWAIT CITY // Salwa al Mutairi, a former parliamentary candidate, said in a video posted on You Tube last month that sex slaves should be legal and prisoners from war-torn countries, such as Chechnya, would make suitable concubines.

Ms al Mutairi said she asked Saudi muftis what the Islamic ruling was on owning sex slaves while on a trip to Mecca because she had a male colleague who was "young and something of a womaniser".

The mufti told her it is not haram, or forbidden, she said. "The context must be that of a Muslim nation conquering a non-Muslim nation, so these jawari have to be prisoners of war."

Jariya is an Arabic term meaning "concubine" or "sex slave". The plural of the word is jawari.

Ms al Mutairi said free women must be married with a contract but, with concubines, "the man just buys her and that's it. That's enough to serve as marriage".

The ruling was confirmed by "specialised people of the faith" in Kuwait, she said. "They said, 'That's right, the only solution for a decent man who has the means, who is overpowered by desire and who does not want to commit fornication, is to acquire jawari'."

Offices could be opened to run the sex trade in the same way recruitment agencies provide domestic labourers, Ms al Mutairi suggested.

"One of the countries where [I see this trade is possible] is Chechnya. The country is at war with another state, so there are some captives for sure. I say go and buy those captives, they might just die of hunger over there. I say go and buy them and sell them to merchants here in Kuwait who may otherwise commit a sin."

"I don't see anything wrong with it, nothing at all," she said, adding that the caliph Haroun al Rashid had one wife and more than 2,000 concubines in his possession when he died.

"So there's no shame in it and it is not haram, our Sharia law allows it," she said.

Haroun al Rashid ruled over an area covered by modern-day Iran, Iraq and Syria 12 centuries ago.

Ms al Mutairi's video on You Tube has been viewed more than 84,000 times since it was uploaded on May 24.

Ms al Mutairi finished 23rd in the fifth constituency with more than 1,200 votes in the parliamentary election in 2009.

Candidates who finish in the top 10 are selected for parliament.

Islam is evil

Islam and it's "peaceful prophet " support enslavement of non Muslims


You can insult your father but that doesn't change the fact that your prophet had a harem filled with sex slaves he captured in battle.

there were reasons slavery was permitted in islam in the old days, we dont shy away from it, we dont lie about it. But you christians are the biggest hypocrites in the world, heres what your new testament says about slavery

Timothy 6:1 "All who are under the yoke of slavery should consider their masters worthy of full respect, so that God's name and our teaching may not be slandered."

Matthew 10:24 "A student is not greater than the teacher. A slave is not greater than the master."

Peter 2:18 "Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh."

Let us look at Colossians 3:22 "Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to win their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord."

Some verses from the new testament, dont get me started on the crude and horrid old testament. you dont even know your religion yet you are quick to call others evil. you are quick to shout taqiyya when there is no such thing in islam (if there is please tell me where and how you got it) seems your pastors have really tied a thick turban around your already pea sized brain with this taqiyya madness!


yet heres paul practising taqiyya:


“Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law), so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings.” – 1 Corinthians 9:19-23


The hypocrisy of christians and their selective morality is mind boggling! same verses the used to enslave your black ancestors and the same verses the ku klux klan used to justify their heartlessness, yeah sure, islam is the evil religion. im.becile!
