@floatingwordist@shahanSean Ustadh Anthony Is it true that sexual slavery did not exist among the early Muslims, or is this merely revisionism? Sorry to bother you.
@DarinaMarty I am from moroccan background. Marriage between moroccan muslim woman and spanish/french (after conversion)is less controversial like marriage between moroccan woman and black muslim man.
@ThatchEffendi after the collapse of the Caliphate of Codoba some taifas were ruled by muladi(iberian muslims),berbers and saqaliba(slavic converts). examples:taifa of mertola(ruled by the convert ibn qasi),taifa of priego(Saʿid ibn Mastanna),taifa of lorca(Daysam ibn Ishaq)under
All New World and other colonial racial caste systems are downstream, in many regards, of the system in Al Andalus, which had Arabs atop a rigidly enforced hierarchy of Berber Muslims, local converts, Jews and imported slaves.
Abbasid Mesopotamia had, essentially, full fledged chattel slavery of black African slaves until series of slave revolts called the Zanj Rebellions which did permanent damage to the Caliphate and economic activity in Iraq.
At the time of the Nasrid dynasty (the last dinasty)the distinction between these various groups was blurred (also thanks to the exodus of Muslims from different groups at the beginning of the reconquest in the southern regions)
@DarinaMarty@lookforurself Funny thing about his tweet is that also the sharia allow the doctors (both male/female)to touch sensible areas of the patient during medical treatment.

@DarinaMarty@VergilChua You hear a lot of people blame the problematic aspect of latin american societies on their non european roots ,but they forget a huge segment of their populacion is european.
@DarinaMarty I think one of the reasons a lot of people remember the anglo abolizionist movement instead of the french,is because you have to concede the first abolitionist movement (french)in the west was secular not christian like the anglo.
@DarinaMarty Also cossacks slave raiders destroyed entire muslim areas of the black sea.
The famous ottoman traveller ewliya celebi witnessed the devastation left by both tartar and cossack slave raids.
