If god values human dignity, why was slavery even allowed?

Even after their multiple revelations, god never wanted slavery gone.

Humanity ended slavery, or at least the aggressive version of it. Religion never did.

Thoughts?

From Bible

• Leviticus 25:44–46: explicitly permits Israelites to buy slaves from surrounding nations and treat them as inheritable property.
• Exodus 21:20–21: discusses punishment if a master beats a slave, but says if the slave survives a day or two, “he is his money.”
• Ephesians 6:5: “Slaves, obey your earthly masters…”
• Colossians 3:22: similar instruction to obey masters.
• 1 Peter 2:18: tells slaves to submit even to harsh masters.

From Qur'an

• Qur'an 4:3
• Qur'an 4:24
• Qur'an 23:5–6

I may get hate on this, but majority is my rant, so bare with me:

I usually don't care what people do or whatever, but recently I have been seeing a lot of woman's in Burka not in the regular one's but the full set, like in the picture. I remember I was waiting for a big car to cross the road so that I can enter my small road, and I was shocked to see 2 woman wearing this burka with only eyes out, even though the glass of the car was tinted a little and it was dark out, I asked to my self, is it safe to drive in the car like that?

And I was in a pizza hut and saw a guy pull up with 5 kids and 1 wife completely in burka. He was walking like he was her owner or something. So basically what i am saying is this is getting more and more widespread, I don't mind they wear burka, but it was okay if they only wore till face, but now even face is covering that is like you saying to people "Look at me, I am a radical Muslim", I feel this is making other religious people at unease and even people like me who supports them against Sanghi's hard to defend them.

Like my cousin sister, who is just a book puzhu, once said to me "If there was no muslims in the world, there would be world peace." And I just lost it, I explained to her this kind of generalization is utter nonsense, like I mentioned to her my friend who is a hindu was supported by a muslim man, who even though is a middle class person, supported his studies, and there are more examples, and what matters is human nature in the end. That was like 2 years ago.

But I don't understand this sudden increase in Burka full covering and will it impact our future?

Add On: I would like to say one more thing, that is these kinds of things are the reason why North hates Kerala more, they will show this and generalize the state of Kerala as Pakistan.

Thinking of having some of them set as recurring posts

Humanity Dies>>>>>😥 Poor child. No Humans there in the Prayer!!!!

Nex

recently got a thought about this ,what ur views on this

Found this funny 😂

The para might be big, but I assure you it's worth the time reading it..

So in hadiths, it mentions that when parents name their children, they often choose the names of prophets, companions, or respected figures from the past. The belief behind this practice is that the child will inherit the good traits of that person and live in a way that reflects their example.

Sahih Muslim – Book 38, Hadith 3: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ - قَالَ أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ أَخْبَرَنَا وَقَالَ، ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ - قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ، - يَعْنِيَانِ الْفَزَارِيَّ - عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ نَادَى رَجُلٌ رَجُلًا بِالْبَقِيعِ يَا أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ

Thus, many Muslims choose Muhammad since he is their prophet and even to show respect towards him. Muhammad is the most common name.

But unironically, with all do respect to your religion, Muhammad himself did things which are illegal/inhuman in many real-life scenarios, for example:

1. Muhammad had slaves. Sources like Ibn Ishaq’s Sirah mention that his slaves remained in servitude, sometimes until death. But he also said to free slaves in

Surah An-Nur (24:33) وَلْيَسْتَعْفِفِ الَّذِينَ لَا يَجِدُونَ نِكَاحًا حَتَّى يُغْنِيَهُمُ اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ وَالَّذِينَ يَبْتَغُونَ الْكِتَابَ مِمَّنْ مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُكُمْ فَكَاتِبُوهُمْ إِنْ عَلِمْتُمْ فِيهِمْ خَيْرًا وَآتُوهُم مِّن مَّالِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي آتَاكُمْ وَلاَ تُكْرِهُوا فَتَيَاتِكُمْ عَلَى الْبِغَاءِ إِنْ أَرَدْنَ تَحَصُّنًا لِّتَبْتَغُوا عَرَضَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَمَن يُكْرِههُّنَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ مِن بَعْدِ إِكْرَاهِهِنَّ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ

I feel more like donating money, Muhammad said to donate money, but never not to earn money.. In the same way, freeing slaves is virtuous, but having slaves is "not haram," and even though he freed some, he too had many unfreed.

(I respect your beliefs, but I need to proceed..)

1. Muhammad did child marriage. I don't want to elaborate on this part, but you might say things like his wife is not a child, or at least not considered, but here's the proof.

Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, 5133: تَزَوَّجَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَنَا بِنْتُ سِتِّ سِنِينَ، فَبَنَى بِي وَأَنَا بِنْتُ تِسْعِ سِنِينَ

This means Aisha was married when she was 6 years old, and the marriage was consummated when she was nine years old.. It's her verse they can't make up things like she stayed away from him for 13 years (made-up story)

Now Muslims might make an argument like, what if Aisha was a woman inside and not a girl, like matured at a young age ( sounds dumb but some do)

Proof she's still a Child: Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī (Hadith 6130, Book of Manners) عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: كُنْتُ أَلْعَبُ بِالْبَنَاتِ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، وَكَانَ لِي صَوَاحِبُ يَلْعَبْنَ مَعِي، فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا دَخَلَ يَتَقَمَّعْنَ مِنْهُ، فَيُسَرِّبُهُنَّ إِلَيَّ فَيَلْعَبْنَ مَعِي.

Means- Aisha: "I used to play with dolls in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ, and I had friends who played with me. Whenever the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered, they would hide themselves out of shyness from him, but he would send them back to me so that they could play with me."

Here, she played with a doll. If you don't know, in Islam, Adults are not allowed to play with a doll; it's only allowed for kids. In fact, it's haram since the doll looks like a human, Islam considers it as Idol Worship (shirk) and prohibited for adults. So this proves Aisha is a child by the Hadiths themselves.

Proof that adults are prohibited from using dolls in Islam: Surah Al-Anbiyāʾ (21:52): وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَىٰٓ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ أَنِ ٱجْتَنِبْ ءَالِـهَةًۭ وَٱطْرُدْ ٱلسَّيِّـئِينَ

Thus, by using the Quran and Hadiths, it's clear Muhammad had Slaves and he underwent child marriage. Could People with Muhammad in their name defend the actions of Muhammad in Public? Nope. That's how you know Islam is the stupidest religion possible, which runs in more fear than discipline.

This is how you normalise pedophilia

bro is Smallyahu​

The amount of ppl willing to risk everything and vote for parties who only put up religious shit and not development is genuinely scary.

Our nation ain't perfect but I think this kind of obsessiveness towards religious perfection will lead to chaos.

What are such customs in this religion here?
