@MoAnsar A genuine qu - who was the 1st Muslim philosopher to condemn slavery as an institution? I know Gregory of Nyssa was the 1st Xian.

@CaptainDG64@MoAnsar Thank you, all very interesting. Do YOU know who the first Muslim thinker was to condemn slavery as an institution? -
@holland_tom I wouldn't know, but according to B Freamon, historically, emancipation of a slave was seen as reparation for sins@MoAnsar -
@CaptainDG64@MoAnsar Keen 2 find Muslim equivalent of Gregory of Nyssa, the 1st Christian I know of to condemn slavery as an institution. - 1 more reply
