Holy Koran and Slavery ! Slaves – obey the Al-Lah idol or else ! Sura 24.

In 5% or more of the Koran the issue of being a slave, and of slavery is discussed. There are 3 major categories of Moslem-based slavery. First, there is direct slavery where Moslem men are granted by the Al-Lah thing, the right to possess sex slaves, slaves captured in war, and to manage their 4 wives as they see fit. Islam is of course a cult made to rule for men.

024:058 URL O you who believe! Let your legal slaves and slave-girls, and those among you who have not come to the age of puberty ask your permission (before they come to your presence) on three occasions; before Fajr (morning) prayer, and while you put off your clothes for the noonday (rest), and after the 'Isha' (late-night) prayer. (These) three times are of privacy for you, other than these times there is no sin on you or on them to move about, attending (helping) you each other. Thus Allah makes clear the Ayat (the Verses of this Qur'an, showing proofs for the legal aspects of permission for visits, etc.) to you. And Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise.

According to this verse sex slaves are expected to be polite and treat their master with deference.

Second, there is the indirect form of slavery where Infidels are to be humiliated and subjugated by Moslems, dominated by the cult of Al-Lah working and taxed for the benefit of Moslems. Indirect slavery is also a part of the male Moslem cult, where all rules, laws, procedures and social mores benefit the man. The Koran has little to say about women and what they get from the cult, but parts of it – including Sura 24 – do lay out stringent rules about how women must behave. Sura 24:31 is where women are told to cover up – part of the regulation of their enslavement to their man:

024:031 URL And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts, etc.) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like palms of hands or one eye or both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer dress like veil, gloves, head-cover, apron, etc.), and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms, etc.) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husband's sons, their brothers or their brother's sons, or their sister's sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allah to forgive you all,

According to the above 'law', women must cover up everything but their faces and hands. They can also possess slaves, one of the few instances in the Koran where one sees a benefit for a Moslem female. There is no mention in the Koran what a believing female gets in the after-life but plenty of graphic description about what a believing male will receive.

Sura 24, reviewed here, is a chapter named the 'Light' or 'Nur', which focuses on the usual slavery-supremacist themes one finds within Islam and the Koran. Only the Meccan idol, Al-Lah, the Lord is the light of the world and only his doctrines found in Muhammad's book named 'Recital' can lead a human to the light of faith and salvation. Al-Lah will predestine some humans to be Moslems and others to be Infidels:

There is no free-will within Islam. Al-Lah determines all. Absurdly Al-Lah will punish the Satanic-influenced Infidels even though apparently the Infidels were forced into rejecting Islam by this Al-Lah force:

Al-Lah will kill the wicked because he has pre-ordained them to reject Islam....How logical.

This would mean that the most pious Moslem – the most debased slave of Al-Lah – will be the most exalted. This is the third category of slavery within Islam. Slavery to Al-Lah is what the cult of Islam craves. Sura 24 restates this basic fact which is one of the foundations of Islamic submission. Slavery to the Al-Lah thing and by extension to Muhammad is what the cult expects of a pious believer. This negates free-will.

The only interesting passage in Sura 24 is verse 33. In this verse slaves can be freed if they are Moslem and of good character. This is presumably to strengthen the cult – an act of charity with a practical view. Also, if a Moslem woman is forced into prostitution because her 'man' won't pay for her way in life, or she is forced into it to make her owner money, Al-Lah will forgive her, as long as the woman is a Moslem:

024:033 URL And let those who find not the financial means for marriage keep themselves chaste, until Allah enriches them of His Bounty. And such of your slaves as seek a writing (of emancipation), give them such writing, if you know that they are good and trustworthy. And give them something yourselves out of the wealth of Allah which He has bestowed upon you. And force not your maids to prostitution, if they desire chastity, in order that you may make a gain in the (perishable) goods of this worldly life. But if anyone compels them (to prostitution), then after such compulsion, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful (to those women, i.e. He will forgive them because they have been forced to do this evil action unwillingly).

Sura 24 is another good starting point for anyone who wants to better understand what the cult of Islam is all about. Along with chapters, 2, 5, 9, and 23, chapter 24 lays out the basic outlines of Islamic liturgy. Slavery, jihad against the Infidel, management of women and the construction of a cult for the benefit of male Moslems.
