Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

UK: Muslims kept up to 42 slaves in two-bedroom house

Oct 9, 2015 5:12 pm By Robert Spencer

“Prosecutors said company owner Mohammed Rafiq and two other men who had positions within the firm – Mohammed Patel and Mohammed Dadhiwala – knew that workers supplied to them by Orsos were trafficked.”

Why didn’t they care? Here are some possible clues:

The Qur’an has Allah telling Muhammad that he has given him girls as sex slaves: “Prophet, We have made lawful to you the wives to whom you have granted dowries and the slave girls whom God has given you as booty.” (Qur’an 33:50)

Muhammad bought slaves: “Jabir (Allah be pleased with him) reported: There came a slave and pledged allegiance to Allah’s Apostle (may peace be upon him) on migration; he (the Holy Prophet) did not know that he was a slave. Then there came his master and demanded him back, whereupon Allah’s Apostle (may peace be upon him) said: Sell him to me. And he bought him for two black slaves, and he did not afterwards take allegiance from anyone until he had asked him whether he was a slave (or a free man).” (Muslim 3901)

Muhammad took female Infidel captives as slaves: “Narrated Anas: The Prophet offered the Fajr Prayer near Khaibar when it was still dark and then said, ‘Allahu-Akbar! Khaibar is destroyed, for whenever we approach a (hostile) nation (to fight), then evil will be the morning for those who have been warned.’ Then the inhabitants of Khaibar came out running on the roads. The Prophet had their warriors killed, their offspring and woman taken as captives. Safiya was amongst the captives. She first came in the share of Dahya Alkali but later on she belonged to the Prophet. The Prophet made her manumission as her ‘Mahr.’” (Bukhari 5.59.512) Mahr is bride price: Muhammad freed her and married her. But he didn’t do this to all his slaves:

Muhammad owned slaves: “Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah’s Apostle was on a journey and he had a black slave called Anjasha, and he was driving the camels (very fast, and there were women riding on those camels). Allah’s Apostle said, ‘Waihaka (May Allah be merciful to you), O Anjasha! Drive slowly (the camels) with the glass vessels (women)!’” (Bukhari 8.73.182) There is no mention of Muhammad’s freeing Anjasha.

Leeds Crown Court

“Up to 42 ‘slaves’ forced to sleep in two bedroom house in Rand Place, Bradford, court hears,” by Michael Black, Telegraph & Argus, October 8, 2015 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur):

UP to 42 people were forced to sleep in a two bedroom house in Bradford after being brought into the country by a human trafficking gang, a trial has heard.

Leeds Crown Court was told how Mark Kovacs lived in the house in Rand Place, Bradford, and worked 11 hours a day for a bed company in Kirklees.

He was also expected to work for free at weekends doing house renovations, painting and gardening, from 9am to anything up to 6pm or 7pm, before he finally escaped “the clutches” of the organisation’s boss, a jury was told.

Ethical audits by a series of leading high street retailers failed to spot the bed supplier was employing a “slave workforce”.

Large numbers of Hungarian nationals were employed by Kozee Sleep which supplied firms including John Lewis, Next and Dunelm Mill, Leeds Crown Court heard.

Three men connected to the West Yorkshire business have gone on trial accused of people trafficking.

A jury has been told that the Hungarians were provided to Kozee Sleep by Janos Orsos and his people-trafficking organisation to work at the firm’s factory in Dewsbury and its subsidiary, Layzee Sleep, in Batley.

Prosecutors said company owner Mohammed Rafiq and two other men who had positions within the firm – Mohammed Patel and Mohammed Dadhiwala – knew that workers supplied to them by Orsos were trafficked.

Christopher Tehrani QC, prosecuting, told the jury: “Kozee Sleep provided some of the UK’s largest retailers with beds and mattresses either directly or through intermediary companies.

“These companies included Next Plc, the John Lewis Partnership and Dunelm Mill.

“As part of the contract, Kozee Sleep was required to adhere to each company’s policies re ethical trading, which included how they treated persons who worked on their premises.”

Mr Tehrani said each firm conducted regular ethical audits prior to May 2014 but he said: “Nothing untoward had been uncovered during those audits.”

The prosecutor has told the jury: “The prosecution submit that the three defendants were involved with Janos Orsos and his human trafficking organisation to source them cheap slave labour to work at Kozee Sleep and Layzee Sleep factories.

“The prosecution case is that the three defendants were aware of the circumstances of the Hungarian nationals who were working at these sites and went along with their exploitation as a slave workforce for their own and others’ gain.”

Rafiq, 60, of Thorncliffe Road, Staincliffe, Patel, 40, of Carr Side Crescent, Batley, and Dadhiwala, 46, of Upper Mount Street, Batley Carr, all deny a single count of conspiracy to traffic individuals within the UK….

    From no see to shining no see

    Slavery and sex-slavery are well established in Islam. It’s in the scriptures. It’s embedded in the belief system. Now, Hillary Dubya Barack Hussein Jeb! David Tony John Lurch + John Ollie Bill Greta Laura Diane Chuck Elizabeth et al. all agree that Islam is one of the world’s great religions one of the three Abrahamic faiths a religion of peace… so what’s wrong with these guys having 42 slaves in the house? Hell, if you went down to the million dollar condos in Abu Dhabi and opened a closet door dozens of sex-slaves would tumble out.

    This is ok. This is the new deal. You can’t criticize or illegalize part of the belief system without taking on the whole thing, so let’s avert our eyes nothing to see here please move along… and for God’s sake don’t move along to Rotherham cuz there’s so much to not see there.

    From my standpoint all of Islam is slavery anyway. There are just different kinds of Islamic slavery.
    Here is some background.

    ISLAM AND SLAVERY – UNSHACKLING THE TRUTH
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wic1CdJKufY

    —————————–

    Muslim historian and Quranic commentator Abu Ja’far Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari (d. 923) cites Hanafi, “affirming the impunity with which non-combatant `harbis’ — women, children, the elderly, the mentally or physically disabled — may be killed” (p. 62 of Sharia Versus Freedom).

    Bukhari (62:137) – An account of women taken as slaves in battle by Muhammad’s men after their husbands and fathers were killed. The woman were raped with Muhammad’s approval.

    Bukhari (34:432) – Another account of females taken captive and raped with Muhammad’s approval. In this case it is evident that the Muslims intend on selling the women after raping them because they are concerned about devaluing their price by impregnating them. Muhammad is asked about coitus interruptus.

    Bukhari (47.765) – A woman is rebuked by Muhammad for freeing a slave girl. The prophet tells her that she would have gotten a greater heavenly reward by giving her to a relative (as a slave).

    Muslim 4345 – Narration of a military raid against a hapless tribe trying to reach their water hole. During the slaughter, the women and children attempt to flee, but are cut off and captured by the Muslims. This story refutes any misconception that Muhammad’s sex slaves were taken by their own volition.

      It is. There is slavery even in the Islamic paradise. Each Muslims gets a minimum of 70,000 slaves as well as the many SEX SLAVES for non-stop SEX and DRINKING PARTIES.

        It’s mind-boggling to think of the character of the people that get to go to Islamic Paradise.

        The described rewards would not be rewarding to a person of great character and high moral standards. It would be morally horrifying for such a person.

        There is no rewarding place in Mohammad’s idea of Paradise for the truly good, morally developed, honest, rational, benevolent human being. Allah doesn’t seem to have considered those who aren’t interested in effing their brains out in non-stop orgies and gorging themselves on goodies, and who don’t take pleasure in watching people who didn’t believe in their religion being tortured forever in hell.

        The people who live for those kinds of “enjoyments” are the kind of people I prefer to avoid while I’m alive. Why the hell would I want to spend eternity with them?

          Oct 10, 2015 at 10:06 pm

          Allah offers a pornographic paradise that no Holy, Just, and Righteous God would. It’s understandable how degenerate and sadistic men would enthusiastically throw in with Muhammed given the promise of 72 virgins and/or boys to fornicate with in the Hereafter for all eternity. And in this life, it gives them the ”spiritual” justification to exercise their brutal and savage proclivities in service to their bloodthirsty god.

          Islam is as diabolical as it gets and ISIS, which to the letter adheres to Islamic law, is a perfect example of its despicable and vile nature.

          Islam and civilization………Islam and honor………Islam and tolerance…….Islam and peace are all mutually exclusive terms.

    Found this in my notes
    Muhammad was the conjurer of self-serving revelations.
    Only hours after he had supervised the slaying the HUSBAND of the beautiful Safiyah bint Huyayy, Muhammad married her.
    See how this ADULTEROUS serpent of Islam got around the truth.
    Why is adultery now punished by death in Islam?
    It is a pitiful attempt to hide the adulterer Muhammad’s sins.
    The prophet’s smoke is clearing; his mirrors are disappearing.
    Muhammad was a godless infidel posing as a prophet.

    Muhammad captured and forced girls to become sex-slaves
    Khadija ran a caravan trade business.

    It does not take a genius to figure out what kind of business madam Khadija ran with pimp daddy MO running loose.

    There’s no suggestion from the News report that this case was about sex slavery. Rather it is an unscrupulous muslim business owner who put people to work in his bed factory as slaves for profit. No doubt he could justify his actions by the supremacist teaching he found in his Koran. But this case once again shows the weakness of the borderless European Union states. It is very easy to transport Eastern Europeans desperate to get to Britain without the need for travel documents.
    This scam is not unique to Britain or muslim people trafficers. Thai nationals are likewise tricked into bonded labour situations overseas, often by fellow Thais.

      Yes, good observation about Eastern Europians situation in the EU. Millions having no or not good enough opportunity in their home countries migrated to the western part. Some do good, most do OK, and some stay poor in misery and don´t know how to get out of it. Those are easy targets for criminals and easily become criminals themselfs.

    We are all slaves.
    The one area of power that we have as individuals is that we can decide who we want to be slaves to. No man can serve 2 masters, but we all serve one or the other.
    American women chose to be servants of the devil by renouncing their subordination to their husband for a fake liberty called feminism. This deception led to abandonment by American men and left the whole nation vulnerable to sexual promiscuity that will ultimately lead to enslavement by Islam and other third world, mud puddle religions.

      So everything that goes wrong in a society is becuz of them wikked wimmens not knuckling under?

      BTW the relationship between a husband and wife, in Christianity, is not framed as a master-slave relationship.

      For that matter, the relationship between God and humans, in Christianity, is described in many different ways: although the master-slave paradigm is used (but since when did any human master offer to die for his slaves), the analogies of parent and child and of friendship are also used. Abraham in the Bible is not called ‘slave’ of God and neither is Moses – they are called God’s *friends*. – “God spoke with Moses face to face, as a man speaks with his friend”. And Jesus tells his disciples they are his FRIENDS, not his slaves.

      And you seem to assume that every woman in a society must be ‘owned’ and ‘controlled’ by a man. What of those women who *do not* marry?

    And still no mention in a national newspaper.
