The Holy Book condones killing a slave 20-21“ If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property. ”

Bulls are to be put to death if they gore normal people but they are just stoned if they gore a slave.Exodus 21:32 "If the bull gores a male or female slave, the owner must pay thirty shekels of silver to the master of the slave, and the bull must be stoned. (but not to death)"


In Islam slaves are ordinary people and even brothers and sistersThe prophet says " Those slaves are your brothers, only God gave you an upper hand over them. So let that who has his brother (i.e. slave) under him give him the same food he himself eats, and the same clothing as he himself wears. The master may not give his brother a task that is beyond his ability. If he does give him such task, let him lend him a hand.“The prophet prohibited the Moslems to use the word salve, he, instead, ordered the Moslems to say" my girl, my boy."
