Totally agree. And the amount of sexual access these upper class medieval Muslims had is pretty insane. Not only does IB marry women and leave them, he buys "slave girls" all the time on the cheap.

Why do you think non-muslim communities of that time were any different. Do you when USA end slavery or when they recognize women as full human beings?

حبيبي I read his comment many times but I do not read that what you read. He doesn't say other communities were strictly superior.
