Have you ever questioned your belief?

I am kind of going through such a phase right now. It’s allowed in Islam to keep non believing female prisoners of war as loundis. I know Christianity allowed slavery too but I found it hard esp knowing the Shaba had them too. I had a hard few days but kept my Iman thinking that it was the seventh century and times were different then. But it’s hard. Wishing people could shed more light on this in a positive way.

Most people will coup with this with same thought as the bold part. Even when I read second sentence in your comment, I came up with same reason. Slavery continued in Muslim world till 19th century when it was banned due to intervention from Europe. Islam did talked about good treatment of slaves and even freedom of slaves as a kaffara for certain sins, but it didn’t ban slavery.
