Should people against Slavery Leave Islam? Islam and Slavery

First Islam (from the Quran) does not condone slavery at all. As a matter of fact; Quran 90:1 - 20 should give you a good Idea of the the believers do.

In the history of Islam, and even to this day, those that seek to establish a man-made religion claim that Slavery is permissible. IT IS NOT According to the Quran. As a matter of fact, since Allah since that the one who frees the Slave is a believer, then those that enslave are disbelievers.

There is hardly any room to debate this.

I am not a traditionalist. I am not a Sunni, nor a shia. I am a Muslim. There is no other name.

I am not part of the religion of Islam. My internal belief is Islam. I submit to Allah, and that is all. No man made crap in my life.

I am against Slavery. Allah created men in a good fashion. They are to have no master but the Creator. In my opinion anyone that seeks to enslave will experience the hell-fire, inshallah, I am right.

True belief is the freeing of the slave, the care of the orphan, the wayfarer, and the needy. No one is more needy then the slave, orphan, hungry, and homeless.....therefore someone (me) will fight for them forever.

Islam is not a religion. Islam is a Straight Path. People who are misguided condone slavery. Islam/ Allah does not.

I am going to try to put together an argument

Islam 1 - is a religion
Islam 2 - is an ideal way of thinking about life, hereafter, and Allah

Islam 1 - is a social construct. It cannot exist without the Quran, and it cannot exist without a historical analysis.
Islam 2 - is a personal construct. It can exist with or without the Quran because it is a personal belief that can be given by Allah with or without the Quran

Islam 1 - allows Slavery and other things that the Quran does not, nor does reasonable thought (philosophy)
Islam 2 - because it is based from the Quran, does not have the door open to mistreatment of others. ie slavery

I am not part of Islam 1 because of its hypocrisy, namely its lies against the Prophets, Allah, and the Turning away from the Book. Therefore, I do not need to leave it because it accepts Slavery, when I already see massive flaws in the argument for organized religion of any sorts

I am part of Islam 2, not only because of the lack of slavery support, but also due to the personal responsibility, reason, logic, and complex complete comprehension of Truth in that it avoids contradiction. (or thoughts and actions) Islam 2 is personal and reasonable, not to mention it does not condone slavery therefore the argument to leave Islam (2) is illogical.

The only logical acceptance of the "Leave because of Slavery" principle is if someone accepts Islam 1 as Islam 2. This is a contradiction because they are separate even if they share the same name. Islam 2 (in my opinion) is against Islam 1, and therefore is free of its associations. However, uneducated individuals with continually based ISLAM because of Islam 1, and mischaracterize Islam 2 because of it.

Good thing that those that follow Islam 2 are doing it in their mind and hearts devoid of using social mechanisms to realize legitimization.

All praise to Allah.
