ISBN10: 0195221516, ISBN13: 9780195221510, [publisher: Oxford University Press, USA 4/20/2006] Hardcover Islam and the Abolition of Slavery 1.13 [Grand Rapids, MI, U.S.A.] [Publication Year: 2006]
LANGUAGE: ENGLISHContemporay debates about Muslim slavery occur in a context of fierce polemics between Islam and other belief systems. While Islamic groups had an ambivalent and generally muted impact on the legal repudiation of slavery, a growing religious commitment to abolition was essential if legislation was to be enforced in the twentieth century. Drawing on examples from the whole 'abode' of Islam, from the Philipines to Senegal and from the Caucasus to South Africa, Gervase Clarence-Smith ranges across the history of Islam, paying particular attention to the period from the late 18th century to the present. He shows that sharia-minded attempts to achieve closer adherence to the holy law restricted slavery, even if they did not end it. However, the sharia itself was not as clear about the legality of servitude as is usually assumed, and progressive scholars within the schools of law might even have achieved full emancipation over the long term.

Fundamentalists stressed the literal truth of the founding texts of Islam, and thus found it difficult to abandon slavery completely. Modernists, ' appealing to the spirit rather than to the letter of scripture, spawned the most radical opponents of slavery, notably Sir Sayyid Ahmad Kha ...
