https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_views_on_slavery#:~:text=The%20Quran%20recognizes%20slavery%20as,would%20not%20have%20been%20practical. >>The Quran recognizes slavery as a source of injustice, as it places the freeing of slaves on the same level as feeding the poor. **Nevertheless, the Quran doesn't abolish slavery.** One reason given is that slavery was a major part of the 7th century socioeconomic system, and it abolishing it would not have been practical. Oh the hypocrisy... >>One reason given is that slavery was a major part of the 7th century socioeconomic system... No shit.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbary_slave_trade >>The Barbary slave trade refers to slave markets on the Barbary Coast of North Africa, which included the Ottoman provinces of Algeria, Tunisia and Tripolitania and the independent sultanate of Morocco, between the 16th and middle of the 18th century. The Ottoman provinces in North Africa were nominally under Ottoman suzerainty, but in reality they were mostly autonomous. >>**European slaves were acquired by Barbary pirates in slave raids on ships and by raids on coastal towns from Italy to the Netherlands, Ireland and the southwest of Britain, as far north as Iceland and into the eastern Mediterranean.** >>The Ottoman eastern Mediterranean was the scene of intense piracy.[1] As late as the 18th century, piracy continued to be a "consistent threat to maritime traffic in the Aegean".[2] And since the Quran is deemed perfect.... How could it be reformed? You people will never give up on fucking with us until you no longer can, physically speaking And that, is the truth...
