do you think Slavery has never been abolished in this world. It's only broadened it's selection of slaves.

its nothing to do with religious ideologies , we are moved far from that , and we are living in new era and our consciousness is grown with us . But if you looking to the new world’s laws , have you ever felt that there are still traces of slavery in a new form

Another perspective:

I think we all are slaves to our own greeds.

The doors are never closed, aren't they.

It all depends on how bad you want something and up to what extend you are going to sacrifice your freedom for it.

whether its a green card, workvisa/iqama, tax free salary, luxury and lavish living, credit cards, ease of life ..

Just Control your Needs, it'll set you free.

you must still have someplace, somewhere .. called home .. right!!

I don't think prophet mohd banned slavery or he did a really bad job, its still existed in its purest form in the gulf until the 20 century and now is a form of economic slavery.

Slavery has been abolished by Prophet Muhammad, except for prisoners of war. And the world has followed suit.

It exists, especially in the Gulf States. The United Nations clearly call the sponsorship system 'Modern Slavery'.
