Every major religion and philosophy once condoned or approved of slavery, but in modern times nothing is seen as more evil. Americans confront this crisis of authority when they erect statues of Founding Fathers who slept with their slaves. And Muslims faced it when ISIS revived sex-slavery, justifying it with verses from the Quran and the practice of Muhammad. Exploring the moral and ultimately theological problem of slavery, Jonathan A.C. Brown traces how the Christian, Jewish and Islamic traditions have tried to reconcile modern moral certainties with the infallibility of God's message. He lays out how Islam viewed slavery in theory, and the reality of how it was practiced across Islamic civilization. Finally, Brown carefully examines arguments put forward by Muslims for the abolition of slavery. 650 0 $a Slavery and Islam. 650 0 $a Slavery $x Islam. $x Islam. 650 0 $a Slavery $z Islamic countries. 650 0 $a Islam and culture. 650 6 $a Esclavage $x Islam. $x Islam. 650 6 $a Islam et civilisation. 650 7 $a 11.84 Islam: other. $0 (NL-LeOCL)077594576 $2 bcl 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE $x Slavery. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Slavery $x Islam. $x Islam. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02018673 650 7 $a Slavery. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01120426 650 7 $a Slavery and Islam. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01120509 650 7 $a Islam and culture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00979871 650 7 $a Slavery $x Religious aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01120487 651 7 $a Islamic countries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244130 650 7 $a Islam $2 gnd 650 7 $a Sklaverei $2 gnd 650 7 $a Slavery and Islam. $2 nli 650 7 $a Slavery and Islam $x History. $2 nli 650 7 $a Slavery $x Islam. $x Islam. $2 nli 650 7 $a Slavery $x Religious aspects. $2 nli 650 7 $a Islam and culture. $2 nli 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718100018.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E07D5210214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
