DiamondHearts said:(Q), you might believe in those figures and statements, but I disagree completely with you.
there is alot of propaganda and lies spreading for hundreds of years in the West about Islam, those who live in the Middle East, and indeed many Non-Muslims will deny your figures as untrue.
Yes, you always deny facts, that's no surprise, but you certainly cannot speak for anyone else, especially non-muslims.
The Muslim government did take prisoners of war, however they took it for the state, not for an individual.
They're called slaves, and they were not just prisoners of war, any non-muslim was fair game. Becoming a slave was better than death unless you planned to be a martyr, which was the only other option.
The point of mutilation of genitals is new to me. I have lived in the Middle East, studied history there, and have a thorough knowledge of the history of my people. I have never heard this before, I believe it is another one of your misconceptions of Islamic history.
Oh no, it's merely just a case of your ongoing denials and refusals to accept facts.
Or, is it such that you look around and don't see the slave trade in operation today, therefore it never existed?
Don't you know that when Muslims conquered parts of the Roman Empire, they first began to acquire Eunuchs as slaves. They were used as harem guards.
Thorough knowledge, my a$$.
