Ghulam aur Kanooni Biwiyan - Dr. Israr Ahmad

Dr. Israr Ahmad comprehensively discusses the Islamic perspective on slavery and concubinage, clarifying permissible conditions and contrasting them with exploitative practices. He explains the legal status of prisoners of war, the rights afforded to concubines (including the possibility of manumission through *mukatabat*), and how their children are treated under Islamic law. The lecture clarifies that concubines are distinct from legal wives, yet possess specific rights and protections. Dr. Ahmad also highlights historical examples of enslaved individuals rising to positions of power within Islamic societies, demonstrating the system’s potential for social mobility. He suggests that the allowance of these practices may be linked to future conflicts and the need for managing prisoners of war in a just manner.
