I must admit, that I too, among hundreds of millions of educated people, was under the impression that the African Slave Trade was the sole responsibility of the Christian Europeans, the White race. That is, until I started exploring the subject in greater dept and especially after reading an incredibly enlightening book called “The Legacy of Arab-Islam in Africa”, by John Allmbillah Azumali.
My own perspective and understanding has changed dramatically and I will like you to tell us more about the subject.
____________________
John Allmbillah Azumali : –
The success of Mohammedan Islam is deceiving, misinforming, deforming and contorting. But history and reality over a period of almost Fourteen Hundred years has been astounding.
That is, until now.
The greatest tragedy about this particular subject, is that most of the descendants of African Slavery, the black people in the Americas, around the world as well as among the African blacks, are totally ignorant of the actual facts.
Before we lose the concentration of our listeners, I will like to make the following statement and then prove it.
That the worst, inhumane and more diabolical institution of the black African slave trade was initiated, refined, perpetrated and implemented by the Mohammedan Arabs and later aided and abetted by the black comrades Mohammedan Islam. (Arab-Fulanis)
I predict that as usual, the tools of culture, those of denial of facts, and of political correctness will attack us, without once disproving a single statement and or conclusion that we make.
Slavery was not created by the White races, because it has existed throughout human history and practiced by every tribe, culture, civilisation, racial group and religion.
In fact, the very word SLAVERY has its root in the name Slav, based on the Slavic peoples of Europe who were subjugated by other Europeans.
It is not common knowledge that the Arabic word Abdul is synonymous with the meaning of slave.
For example : Abdallah means, literally, the slave of Allah, and that in the language of the Arabs, all Black people are called Habib, plural for slaves.
Well, much has been written concerning the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. Surprisingly little attention has been paid to the Islamic Slave Trade across the Sahara, the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean.
While the European involvement in the Africans’ Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade to the Americas lasted for just over three centuries, the Arab involvement in the African Slave Trade has lasted fourteen centuries (1,400 years), and in some parts of the Mohammedan world, is still continuing to this day.
(The kidnapping and enslavement of black Africans continues till this day in Mauritania, from where Peter Obi’s running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed and Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, spokesman of the Northern Elders Forum and tens of thousands of other Fulanis who rule North Nigeria with force, fraud and mass-murder, have only just arrived)
The birth of Mohammedan Islam and its conquest, brought about the birth of institutionalised, systematised and religiously sanctioned slave trade of a massive and global scale.
In fact, the Koran allows the taking of slave as booty or reward for wars of aggression against any and all unbelievers : (that is) most of the human population.
This has led to an enormous number of so-called holy wars, Jihad in Arabic.
There was and is absolutely nothing holy about these wars which are primarily, to plunder, slaughter, rape, subjugate and rob other human beings of their wealth, produce, freedom and dignity.
Mohammedan Muslim states and tribes attack other non-Muslim groups to achieve these objectives.
Although Islamic Jurisprudence laid down regulations for the treatment of slaves. However, incredible and heinous abuses have occurred throughout the history of Mohammedan Islam.
By the middle ages, the Arabic word, Abeed was in general used to denote a black slave; while the word Mamluk referred to a White slave. Even Hadum, 1342 to 1406, the preeminent Islamic medieval historian and social thinker wrote, “the negro nations are as a rule, submissive to slavery because they have attributes that are quite similar to dumb animals.”
It (should) also be noted that black slaves were castrated based on the assumption that the blacks have an ungovernable sexual appetite. When the Fatimid Caliphate came to power in Egypt, they slaughtered all the tens of thousands of black military slaves and raised an entirely new slave army. Some of these slaves were conscripted into the army at age 10. From Persia to Egypt to Morocco. Slave armies from thirty thousand (30,000) to up to two hundred and fifty thousand (250,000) became commonplace.
The Islamic Slave Trade took place across the Sahara Desert, from the Coast of the Red Sea and from East Africa across the Indian Ocean. The Tran-Sahara Trade was conducted along six major Slave routes.
Just in the 19th century for which we have more accurate records, 1.2 million slaves were brought across the Sahara into the Middle East as well as a further 450,000 down the Red sea and 442,000 from the East African coastal ports. That is, a total of 2 million black slaves just in the 1800. At least 8 million more were calculated to have died before the Muslim slave markets.
A comparison of the Islamic slave Trade to the American Slave trade reveals some extremely interesting contrasts.
Where two out of every three slaves shipped across the Atlantic were men, the proportions were reversed in the Islamic slave trade. Two women for every man were enslaved by the Muslims. While the mortality rate of slaves being transported across the Atlantic was as high as 10 percent, the percentage of slaves dying in transit in the South Sahara [West Africa] and East African Slave market was a staggering 80 to 90 percent. While almost all the slaves, shipped across the Atlantic were for Agricultural work, most of the slaves, destined for the Muslim Middle East was sexual exploitation as concubines, in harems and for military service. While many children were born to the slaves in the Americas, and millions of their descendants are citizens in Brazil and the United States, today, very of the few descendants of the slaves that ended up in the middle east survived. While most slaves who went to the Americas could marry and have families, most of the male slaves destined for the Middle East were castrated and most of the children born to the women were killed at birth.
It is estimated that possibly as many as eleven million Africans were transported across the Atlantic, 95 percent of which were to South and Central America mainly to Portuguese, Spanish and French possessions. Only 5 percent of the slaves ended in up in what we call United States today.
However, a minimum of 28 million Africans were enslaved in the Muslim Middle East.
Since at least 80 percent of those captured by Muslim slave traders were calculated to have died before reaching the slave markets, it is believed that the death toll from Fourteen Hundred years [1,400years] of Arab and Muslim slave trade raids into Africa could have been as high as 112 million. When added to the number of those sold in the slave markets, the total number of African victims on the Trans Sahara and East Africa slave trade could be significantly higher than 140 million people.
What is obscene about this whole subject is the Mohammedan Islam and Arab culture of denial regarding their complicity of the African slave trade as well as the ignorance of black Muslims about their reality of their past and present conditions.
The statistics and Reports above are based upon the log books kept at the Africa slave ports, ship logs, travellers’ reports, eye witness accounts, etcetera.
Ladies and gentlemen, the facts and reality of Mohammedan Islam’s complicity in the slave trade and their inhuman depravity are infinitely more devastating, more staggering and more incomprehensible than all the nightmare fictions in the world.
This should help us understand the obsessive determination of Nigeria’s Arab-Fulani, a North African ethnic group, to dispossess the indigenous black Africans of Nigeria of their land and trick us into Slave-like subjugation.
Today, we are faced with the brazen, totally irrational claims of the Arab *-Fulani* and of *Fulani* _jihadis_ whose forebears intermarried with black Africans in North Nigeria, that, although we think they are black, because they have Arab-Berber blood in them and we black Africans in South Nigeria do not, they are therefore of a superior race to us and that there is therefore a necessity for them to kill us en masse and to dispossess us.
Incredulously, since Buhari muscled his way into power in 2015, the Islamist Arab-Berber *-Fulani* of arid North Nigeria have riotously insisted in public that we black Africans in Nigeria are now trapped-in as their slaves and they act accordingly.
Meanwhile, we had always thought their oft repeated threats that they will turn all black Africans in Nigeria into slaves was so absurd in this day and age as to be unworthy of any discussion.
The Arab-Berber *-Fulani* now riotously insists that it must employ fraud, force and murder to subjugate all the indigenous black Africans with who it comes into contact. The hordes of poverty-stricken, but armed, violent and belligerent Arab-Berber *-Fulani* insist on a hare-brained soundbite that “all over the world, Nigeria is the only country given to the Fulani by Allah”.
Meanwhile the geographical area known as Nigeria is occupied today by 199 million black Africans. The 7 million Arab-Berber-Fulani came into Nigeria as vagrant cattle herders. They are violent nomadic Berbers initially forced into the Sahara Desert by North African Arabs.
For 7 years of Buhari’s government, we have lived with vehement and derisive claims that we black Africans are now trapped in slavery. Below is an example of the daily tirade of racist abuse from “we have Berber blood in us” Arab-Fulanis which now totally dominate public discourse in Nigeria –
“The problem with you Southerners is that you can never understand the north.
You claim to be educated but in fact you are uneducated and uncivilised. What do you know about education and what has it done for you ?
We Fulani toss a small bone to you from our table and you betray and fight each other like dogs for it. You crawl before us and beg us for crumbs.
That is your lot in life. You are nothing more than beggars. Cowardly and contended slaves !
Just like your fathers served us, so you shall serve us. Just as you serve us, so your children shall serve us. And just as your children shall serve us, so their children shall serve us.
We are born to rule. Leadership is our blood. No-one in this country can stop or change it. No-one can touch us. Allah has given us Nigeria. It is gift to our forefathers from Him.
Our great grandfather Shaik Osman Dan Fodio and the Mujahadeen fought for it. Our grandfather the Saurdana, Sir Ahmadu Bello expanded our borders and frontiers.
Our father President Muhammadu Buhari has come to complete the job and he is doing very well.
You see the most effective chains are the invisible ones. We already have you in those chains but you just don’t know it. We took our power back in 2015. We will not release it to southerners or unbelievers again. Not in the next 100 years!
It is true that we came from Futa Toro and Futa Jalon many years ago and conquered the north(the Hausas & all northern minorities). Now every inch of it belongs to us.
Every Fulani, whether from Mali, Senegal, Guinea, Niger, Chad, Cameroon or anywhere else is our brother and has a right to be here with us. We are Fulani before Nigerian and our allegiance is to our Fulani brothers all over West Africa more than you.
Now we will conquer south and we do it in the name of “one Nigeria”. In that “one Nigeria” we shall remain the masters and you shall remain the slaves !
None of you are going anywhere. Nigeria will never break. We will not allow it”- ALIYU GWARZO.
_________________________
This is typical of the nauseating rant of “slaves”, “slaves”, “slaves”, “you are trapped”, “you shall remain the slaves”, “we will never let you go” by Fulanis which has choked public discourse since Fulani _jihadi_ Mohammed Buhari muscled his way into office in Nigeria as president.
This age-old Fulani obsession with enslaving (non-Berber) black Africans remains engraved in the Fulani mind. This 21st century Arab-Fulani desire to reduce “fellow human beings to the legal status of chattels . . . . to be bought and sold as goods” as Duncan Clarke wrote in his 1998 book, Slaves and Slavery, is unrelenting.
The Arab-Fulani riotously mocks black Africans on account of slavery. They are quite eager to kill us because they see us as chattels fit only to provide their sustenance.
They live entirely off our resources, off our taxes. They contribute zero to Nigeria’s Annual Budget.
This is clearly, sufficient reason why black African Christians must break away from Arab-Berber-Fulani ruled Islamic North Nigeria. Most offensive of all, they wistfully glorify what their forebears once did to black Africans in North Nigeria.
Regardless of the fact that many Arab-Berber-Fulanis are now sunburnt and some, even darker than black Africans. The odd purple hue to their dark skin, being the only giveaway.
Arab slave-raiders and the Arab-Berber-Fulani rulers of North Nigeria did continue to raid and to enslave black Africans well into the first decades of the 20th century. As Frederick Lugard, first British governor of Nigeria said in the BBC Radio interview before he died, ““the North was ruled by Muslim rulers who generally raided the populace for slaves”.
