The bogus story of Bilal who was a slave of Muhammad and died as a slave if we are to believe the Shia

Submitted by dhimmi no more (United States), Jul 3, 2015 at 17:15

Our dear Joe who tells us that slavery in Islam is humane which is a and you must pardon me stupid remark

So dhimmi ... would you own slaves?

I do not own slaves but your so called prophet owned including a black man by the name of بلال الحبشي or Bilal the Ethiopian what is most amazing is the the late mufasereen know so much about him which makes one wonder that it is all another Qissa or a little story and there is nothing historical about this character. So did some followers of Muhammad indeed went to Ethiopia and met with the Negus? I doubt it very much after all the Islamic historical tradition had no clue about the city of Adulis in other words this would not be unlike you our dear Joe coming from let us say Pakistan to visit the US and going back and writing about it but in the process you had no clue that there is a city in the US called New York City do you get it?

Now here comes the disaster we are told by both the Sunnis and the Shia that بلال الحبشي or Bilal the Ethiopian was a slave and his master and owner was and you guessed it Muhammad

What a disaster your so called prophet owned slaves

There are more disasters and here is the Sunni version of the life of the slave of Muhammad Bilal and this is from islamweb so no one can say that we kuffar make things up so we are told that after the death of Muhammad

ثم اشتراه أبو بكر رضي الله عنه فأعتقه، وكان عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه يقول: أبو بكر سيدنا وأعتق سيدنا. انتهى. من أسد الغابة.

Or Then he (Bilal) was bought by Abu Bakr and he set him free and Omar ibn al-Khatab used to say Abu Bakr our master set free our master (Bilal)

Masha'allah he was set free but who got the money that was paid by Abu Bakr any guesses our dear Joe? (Hint: Abul Qasim's family) What a disaster and here is the link

Now let us check the Shia and this is what they tell us that Bilal supported Ali and this is why he was disliked by Omar and as they call him the Omar the sodomite and when he asked Omar when would he be set free he was told by Omar the sodomite "Not now Bilal not now" What a disaster and then to quote the Shia

روي أن بلال قال لعمر بن الخطاب: أنا لا أبايع إلا من استخلفه رسول الله (ص) يقصد بذلك عليًا (ع)، والذي ستبقى بيعته في أعناقنا إلى يوم القيامة، فقال له عمر: إذن أُغرب عنا وإذهب إلى الشام، فذهب إلى الشام ومات هناك.

Or it was told that Bilal told Omar ibn al-Khatab that he would only support the Khalifa selected by the messenger of Allah and he meant by this Ali and his support would be in our necks until the last day then Omar told him then get lost and go to Syria then he went to Syria where he died and was still a slave oh and here is the link

The poor man was a slave and died as a slave

For the readers there are so many versions of this story which makes me wonder that non of it is for real again we are dealing here with the biggest literary fraud in the history of humanity and that is the Islamic historical tradition

So which story should we kuffar believe? the Shia or the Sunni version?

And here is your bonus question for you: Are you an Ahamdee? a yes or no will do and if you resort to al-taqiyya you will be exposed
