Because POWs are different when under Islam and under the West?

How about the Quran as a source?

* 4:36 "(Show) kindness unto parents, and unto near kindred, and orphans, and the needy, and unto the neighbour who is of kin (unto you) and the neighbour who is not of kin, and the fellow-traveller and the wayfarer and (the slaves) whom your right hands possess."

* 4:92 "It is not for a believer to kill a believer unless (it be) by mistake. He who hath killed a believer by mistake must set free a believing slave, and pay the blood- money to the family of the slain, unless they remit it as a charity. If he (the victim) be of a people hostile unto you, and he is a believer, then (the penance is) to set free a believing slave."

* 23:5-6 "And who guard their modesty - Save from their wives or the (slaves) that their right hands possess."

* 24:31 "And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and be modest, and to display of their adornment only that which is apparent, and to draw their veils over their bosoms, and not to reveal their adornment save to their own husbands or fathers or husbands' fathers, or their sons or their husbands' sons, or their brothers or their brothers' sons or sisters' sons, or their women, or their slaves."

* 24:58 "O ye who believe! Let your slaves, and those of you who have not come to puberty, ask leave of you at three times (before they come into your presence)."

* 33:25-26 "Allah repulsed the disbelievers in their wrath; they gained no good. Allah averted their attack from the believers. Allah is ever Strong, Mighty. And He brought those of the People of the Scripture who supported them down from their strongholds, and cast panic into their hearts. Some ye slew, and ye made captive some.

* 33:50 "O Prophet! Lo! We have made lawful unto thee thy wives unto whom thou hast paid their dowries, and those whom thy right hand possesseth of those whom Allah hath given thee as spoils of war."

* 33:55 "It is no sin for them (thy wives) to converse freely) with their fathers, or their sons, or their brothers, or their brothers' sons, or the sons of their sisters or of their own women, or their slaves."

It shows that servants should be treated well. ie employees.

You have a problem with that?

Some of the translations are downright sloppy

e.g.

[33:50] O prophet, we made lawful for you your wives to whom you have paid their due dowry, or what you already have, as granted to you by God. Also lawful for you in marriage are the daughters of your father's brothers, the daughters of your father's sisters, the daughters of your mother's brothers, the daughters of your mother's sisters, who have emigrated with you. Also, if a believing woman gave herself to the prophet - by forfeiting the dowry - the prophet may marry her without a dowry, if he so wishes. However, her forfeiting of the dowry applies only to the prophet, and not to the other believers. We have already decreed their rights in regard to their spouses or what they already have. This is to spare you any embarrassment. God is Forgiver, Most Merciful.

 

Since when did the word "slaves" become "servants/employees"?

You are able to read the word "slaves" are you not?

 

yeah like Abd-ullah, Abd-ul Gaffar, Abd-ul Hamid, Abd-ul Qadir. etc.

Abd = servant of, one of the most common prefixes in Muslim names.

 

Another excuse for your lies?

 

So, you'll stoop to the lowest levels of lying?

 

You can gauge the difference yourself, if you care to. Its as simple as opening a Quran and getting a dictionary. Why do you always post part of a verse? Where exactly are you getting these "translations"?

Easy enough to check, aint it?

Bernard Lewis the Zionist? Who changed his stance on history over Israel?

"However, since if a non-Muslim population refuses to adopt Islam or pay the Jizya protection/subjugation tax, that population is considered to be at war with the Muslim "ummah" and therefore it becomes legal under Islamic law to take slaves from that non-Muslim population."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_slave_trade

 

Oh look, more ridiculous statements.

Lets change that to: However, if a Muslim subject refuses to follow the laws of the country he is residing in and does not pay tax, he goes to prison and works for 50 cents an hour doing prison work. This is legal under the country's laws!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oooh the horrors :runaway:

 

Oh please, his area of expertise is Ottoman history. Thats all.

How do you gauge his "accuracy"?

Missed this. The Muslims went to Slavic lands and captured Europeans?

 

Sam believes slavery is the same as being gainfully employed and that if you don't want to be a Muslim, you can be an "employee."

Of course, only if she is the "employer."

 

No abd means "servant of". Which begs the question. Why is the word translated as slaves in your translations?

If one is forced to be someone's servant what would you call it, other then slavery ?
