523 | The Attraction of Islam with Dr Jay, Episode 5

Saturday, June 14, 2025

In this episode Al Fadi and Dr Jay continue the discussion of slavery and how Christianity delt with it. They mention the abolition movement from 1673 with Richard Baxter in the USA, William Wilberforce 1789 who headed the abolition movement in the U K. To contrast that with Muslim countries who abolished slavery between 1952-1981, Qatar 1952, Saudi Arabia in 1961 just two examples and they did it because of pressure from western countries. Islam had never had an abolition movement.  Next they discuss reason #4 Islam's morality.  Converts to Islam from Afro American background  say that Afro American Christian churches have more problems with sexual immorality.  That is true but that is not what the Bible teaches especially when we read Matthew 5. The more the western culture pulls away from the bible the more we pull away from morality.
