Christianity Is One Of The First African Religions & Islam Came Through Slavery by Fukai: 11:37am On May 06, 2017
The Kingdom of Axum, which is present-day Ethiopia, officially adopted Christianity as a state religion in the fourth century, more than 200 years before the Muslim prophet was even born. And even before this, there were already many Christians in Ethiopia. Arab Muslims enslaved Africans in mass, castrated them, and shipped them to the Middle East. The Islamic Slave Trade was the earliest, longest, and worst slave trade known to humanity. More black people were enslaved by Arab Muslims than Europeans, and the Arabs were enslaving the Europeans as well. The majority of Arab Muslim countries didn't ban slavery until the 1960s when the United Nations pushed them to end their evil ways, and even now, to this day, Arab Muslims are still enslaving black people. South Sudan seceded from the North because the Northerners began to view themselves as Arabs instead of blacks, and began to ENSLAVE the southerners, sickening.

Even the criminal prophet was heavily involved in slave trade. This evil act, by the prophet of allahh, is well documented in the hadith, the sunnah by Abu Dawud and Ibn majjah, and in the biography of Mohammed (by Ibn Ishaq).

There's a big difference. In one case, people who proclaimed to be Christian came more than 1400 years after the death of Christ and colonized Africa. In the other case, Muhammad himself enslaved and castrated Africans. As a Christian, I don't proclaim to follow those colonizers, to hell with them. However, a Muslim cannot say the same because it was their "prophet" that also did the enslaving. Africa already had Christianity before any colonional masters and it would've naturally spread to west Africa, but the same cannot be said for Islam as it was brought with the sword from Arabia.

Brother, you should calm down with these claims you make.

"Muhammad himself enslaved and castrated Africans"
I wonder what evidence you have to back this claim, especially the bolded statement.

We KNOW that Muhammad owned African slaves, and we know for a fact that his followers castrated black slaves, so we are able to deduce that Muhammad also castrated Africans.



Muhammad owning black slaves and how he viewed them is in the Hadith.

In Sunan an-Nasai 4625, we read:

It was narrated that Jabir said: “A slave came and gave his pledge to the Messenger of Allah to emigrate, and the Prophet did not realize that he was a slave. Then his master came looking for him. The Prophet said: ‘Sell him to me.’ So he bought him for two black slaves, then he did not accept the pledge of anyone after that until he had asked: ‘Is he a slave?’”



If Muhammad bought a slave with two black slaves, then he obviously owned black slaves. To Muhammad and his followers, black slaves were a form of currency. Lastly, Muhammad traded two black slaves for the one Arab slave that made the pledge to Muhammad which also showed that Muhammad thought blacks were of less worth than Arabs.


This hadith is described as: "Selling Animals for Animals of Different Amounts or Quality." These people saw Africans as animals, sickening.

how did Muhammad enslaved Africans, with your source, did any Arab brought Islam to Nigeria, was it not the Northerners that brought it here; google is your friend

Islam is not an ancient religion like Christianity, it is a medieval one. We know the names of people in Muhammad's armies, we know the exact time and places that he fought his wars, and we know for a fact that he owned African slaves. Even the hadith speak of how Muhammad owned black slaves. Muslims enslaved Europeans, Blacks, and so many more. The Islamic Slave Trade started more than 700 years before the European slave trade and it is still happening today. If there had been no Islamic slave trade, I am confident that there would not have been a European slave trade 700 years later. The Islamic Slave Trade is real and it is still alive today.

The southern Nile river civilisations such as Makuria and Axum were indeed Christian states, and they had common contact and influence from Egypt, Rome and Greece. the alphabets for the Nubian languages before muslim invasion related to Dinka and Nuer were in the Greek Alphabet. However the Christianity of Makuria was quite different to the Christianity brought by colonial european missionaries.

Indeed, Ethiopia is one of the continuous legacies from that time ("Ethiopian comes from the Greek Αἰθίοψ (aithiops), meaning "burnt-face" - a term used in ancient Greece for black Africans) - it was the only African state that was never turned into a colony (Liberia doesn't count).
Back in the 1500s, the Islamic sultanates backed by the Ottoman empire were attempting to invade Ethiopia and add it to the caliphate. Ethiopia's king sent messengers on a journey through the desert to reach the christian kingdom of Portugal for military aid. Portugal's king agreed and the two countries joined forces and pushed back islamic incursions into their respective countries. There was falling out however, because the Ethiopian king refused to show christian deferrence to the Pope of Rome instead of the Pope of Alexandria, and after the war Portuguese and Ethiopian forces were exhausted resource-wise and retreated to their borders, cutting off contact between the countries for hundreds of years.

Islam is absolutely racist in it's origins as an arabic-supremacist religion. Muhammad was clear about his people and his language being the "language of the one true god", and constantly made racist remarks about africans/"ethiopians" calling them "raisin heads" among other things. Sharia law defends slavery and sex slavery, and muslims would slave millions of Africans throughout East and West Africa over hundreds of years, treating them like crap. Indeed, the very word for african in Arabic and Turkish, "abd", originates from the Arabic word for SLAVE, "abeed"! It's the other way around for the word slave in English, as "slave" originated from, yes, the word "SLAV", because of the millions of slavic European people from modern day Balkans, Ukraine, Russia etc. who were also enslaved by islamic slavers! The early muslim caliphates were constantly raiding caravans and other nations, forcing the Nile Christian states to supply them with hundreds of slaves annually for hundreds of years under threat of them readying another invasion force to take the states over (which they ended up doing anyway).

And let's not forget the history of RAPE and MURDER in Islam. Practically every historical Muslim leader - hell, even the ones in power in the islamic world today - has condoned and committed heinous atrocities against the non-muslim majorities of other countries, forcing them to join Islam or die and sometimes making them renounce their nationality and language in favour of becoming "Arab" (E.g. Egypt, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, etc. - Algeria and Morocco still have majority populations who are Berber and/or speak the native Berber languages of NW-Africa though, so the islamic caliphates failed to stamp out their native language unlike Egyptian language). The Turkish warlord Tamerlane used to brag and boast about raping and committing genocide against non-muslim, non-arab Hindu, Jain and Buddhist North Indians.

There are horrific historical records of muslim of muslim slave raiders who would attack Swahili villages in East Africa, and if a mother and her child were moving too slowly to the slave boats they would "spear the child to death". That's right SPEARING BABIES TO DEATH. THE RELIGION OF PEACE.

With all this facts. About mohamed and islamic history being revealed on a daily basis, it beats my imagination how any right thinking person will still choose to remain a Muslim. There must definitely be demonic possession involved.
Re: Christianity Is One Of The First African Religions & Islam Came Through Slavery by true2god: 1:32pm On May 07, 2017
Islam and the Arabs are the epitome of evil. Both Christians (trans-atlantic slave trade) and Muslims (transsahara slave trade) enslave blacks in a wholesale proportion, however, while the Europeans have apologized (fake apology) at the UN, the Arabs refused to apologize because they did not want to indict their prophet who was also heavily involved in slave trade.

Also while we have had a black President, senators and house of representative members in the US and Europe (continents were black slaves were shipped to), we never had black president in the Arab world, senators or Assembly members. To the Arabs, slavery continues in their mind because it is the sunnah of the prophet and allahh never abolished slavery. The kafir abolished slavery which is never acceptable to allahh and his apostle.

Islam is a cancer and the Arabs are virus.
