As far as the slavery is concerned in Khalid's thirteenth objective. I have visted Saudi Arabia and in my opinion they are still practicing slavery. What would you call hiring an indigent Filipino or Pakistani on a five year contract to come to the Kingdom to do the horrible work like road building in 125 degree heat and taking their passports away from them right after they arrive, so that they can't leave?
I absolutely agree and have written about this before here.
Saudi Arabia... proud Islamic religious freakdom and custodian of Islams holiest sites, where they import slaves "maids" from places like Indonesia, Sri Lanka and the Philippines and take away their passports, their rights and their dignity.... where their "employers" are able to beat them, molest them, and rape them with impunity, and where the "mistress" of the house is unable/unwilling to act as she is a meare "woman", and her only course of action after seeing her husband screw the "maid" is to take out her frustrations on the innocent slave and give her beatings to go with her husbands rape.
Saudi, a proud nation where if your maid tries to run away because of your treatment, you can simply accuse her of "theft" and she conveniently ends up at "chop chop square" after Friday prayers.
Though they claim the officially abolished it in 1962, it still goes on, and some of their imams are protesting the ban and crying out that "slavery is part of islam."
The (dissident) Saudi Information Agency reports that a prominent Saudi religious authority recently called for slavery to be re-legalized in the kingdom. Ali Al-Ahmed reports on the views of Sheikh Saleh Al-Fawzan, the author of a religious textbook (At-Tawhid, "Monotheism") widely used to teach Saudi high school students as well as their counterparts abroad studying in Saudi schools (including those in the West)."Slavery is a part of Islam," he announced in a recent lecture. "Slavery is part of jihad, and jihad will remain as long there is Islam." He argued against the idea that slavery had ever been abolished, insulting those who espouse this view as "ignorant, not scholars. They are merely writers. Whoever says such things is an infidel."
Al-Fawzan is no maverick. He is:
A member of the Senior Council of Clerics, Saudi Arabia's highest religious body; A member of the Council of Religious Edicts and Research; Imam of the Prince Mitaeb Mosque in Riyadh; and Professor at Imam Mohamed Bin Saud Islamic University, the main Wahhabi center of learning.
You can read the article in full here, including the touching part at the end where this fine representative of Islam threatened a critic of his with beheading.
Of course, historically, slavery is part of Islam, going all the way back to the pedophile Muhammed himself who set a fine example for his followers to emulate by capturing civilians in the wars he waged and keeping them as slaves.
