    Ma malakat aymanukum = what your right hands possess = those who are rightfully yours.
    Is it against God's Quranic laws to have sex with a boyfriend / girlfriend who is rightfully yours i.e not in the categories 1, 2, 3 above?

    Your girlfriend is NOT your possession. She is a free people with her full of right.

    Person who fit the "ma malakat aymanukum" category is slave. And yes you may have sex with YOUR OWN slave. To have sex with someone else slave, you have to marry her first.

      Then how about "malakat aymanukum" in verse 2431??
      This is the basic of "malakat aymankum LiNK

      To who we must maintain the oath, posses right hand is not limited on slave, I'm still on research, but if you have an idea I appreciate this.

        there is no issue if we consider "malakat aymanukum" in 2431 as slave.

        ayman (right hand) refer to power/authority. "malak" is possess.
        the keyword is actually "malak/possess".
        what kind of people is possessed by other people? Answer slave.

        our wife, our maid, our worker is not our possession.

        peace

          So, possession and that is it? Why then the mention of the right hand? Means nothing? It does nto modify anything that it is there or not?

          Anything when it comes to pander some egos.

          Salaam

            Salaam,

            I got an idea; maybe the "right hand" expression relates to actions which leads to receiving the final record in your right hand on the Judgment Day and this argument is probably a metaphor. The other, traditional argument, sounds illogical in my opinion. I am not sure if this opens up for premarital relationships though, but I have always felt that the traditional understanding is of humanly origin and not from God.

            Courtship I have wondered about and if God really forbids you to meet your potential future wife and socialize with her so that you are sure you make the right decision while you decide to marry her. As it is in traditional Islam you can barely meet your wife before marriage and get to know her. I did not mean it is okay with premarital sex, only verbal communication and activities.

            But if you have an intention to marry the wife I think it is okay to have sex. Also you can loosely understand this to be the real "wedding ceremony" or final bond in the Biblical passages which are several thousand years old. I also understood that if you have premarital sex with a woman you have to marry her.

            Also I have never believed that you own your wife or other humans in God's system and this is just a patriarchal invention.

            God bless you

              You really remind me of a member named siki on here.
              Where in the Quran does it say you can have sex with your own MMA? 425 disproves your argument.
              Women may also have their own MMAs as per Qur'an. So according to you Qur'an also permits women to have sex with their MMAs?

                I understood the Arabic word Abd can mean servant as well as slave. If it does refer to slavery, how can it be just, righteous or acceptable for a person to even have slaves if freedom and justice is the core values of Islam?

                Re having sex with their slaves / servants, is it required that slaves / servants first give consent to having sex with their owners or are owners allowed to rape their slaves / servants?? Does it apply to female owners of slaves or only the male owners? Can there even be true consent in such a relationship when all the power is held by the owner? Isn't consenting sex between 2 adults who love each more appropriate than having sex with slaves?
                There are still countries where slavery is occurring today such as Mauritania and Niger. Slavery is a gross human rights abuse. How do we reconcile that with other Quranic values of peace, justice, freedom? Is it possible that "what your right hand possesses" is not literal in terms of actually possessing someone (owning), but a term which covers relationships that are considered legal and lawful?

                  Slavery claiming the sanction of Islam is documented presently in the African republics of Chad, Mauritania, Niger, Mali and Sudan.

                    15 alone you we devotee/serve and alone you we ask help

                    Peace ? in context of Qu'ran it always refers to a willing devotee/servant the god or toward someone/something else (idolatry) and never as unwilling slave or human owned by another also clear idolatry.

                      our wife, our maid, our worker is not our possession.

                      The problem is not as simple as like this.
                      The meaning of ayman is not limited on right, right hand but also "oath".Mamluq (not malak) simply mean planner or roller.

                      We cannot judge too hasty if ayman is slave, you may read another similiar threads in Quran Question n comment board.

                      Where in the Quran does it say you can have sex with your own MMA?

                      What's MMA?

                      I understood the Arabic word Abd can mean servant as well as slave

                      This word also part of of Nusantaran languages especially Malay language family and possibly Bruneian Jawi too.And we use this word as servant not slave.

                      Example "Kami mengabdi kepada negara"
                      "We serve to country"

                      Cheers!

                        No, it cannot mean the same thing malaka and malaka ayman...

                        If it was so there would no reason at all to used them jointly. and to put right in instead of left. malaka is something malaka ayman... is something else. Malaka is not merely posession it can also mean authroity without possession. So there would be no need if what was meant was merely that to coin the term ma malakat aymanuk, it is something else. In this forum it has beend ealt with very extensively, and this possession, property thing as if slave is really pure speculation with no basis on qur'an.

                        Salaam

                            Man of faith said But if you have an intention to marry the wife I think it is okay to have sex.

                            what??!!

                            It said at 236, 7030

                            425 is about marry the MMA. Sure one have to marry her first if she doesn't his own slave. I've said it before.

                            Let's see general context of MMA in quran regarding to marriage and sex (43, 424-25, 3350, 3352). From that verses we know that the context is relationship between male master with his female MMA. So, although woman is also can have a slave she doesn't allowed to have premarital sex with him.

                            Lena said If it does refer to slavery, how can it be just, righteous or acceptable for a person to even have slaves if freedom and justice is the core values of Islam?

                            Islam never create slavery. It existed long time before Islam and happen in many part of the world. Its age is as old as war because most of slaves come from unredeemed war captives. I don't think to keep a captive in prison for life like wild animal is better than to involve him to society as a slave (mostly will be placed as maid or manual labor).

                            However, Islam has some policy that saw sympathy to slaves i.e. to do good with them, to free them as expiation, etc.

                              In 425, GOD says marry ma malakat aymanukum and NOT for illicit sex. So what the heck is this illicit sex?
                              Are you playing abrogation game to Qur'an verses like Shafi'i did?

                              Your high support towards having sexual intercourse with slaves really remind me of hadiths that say men may have coitus interruptus with female captives.

                              No wonder some people see islam as sex-maniac religion. I feel bad for people like you.

                              Just because slavery has already occurred since thousands of years ago, doesn't mean it is okay. GOD says many times in the Qur'an persecution / oppression is worse than murder. If GOD says to free slaves that means you must free your slaves. No slavery in islam. If islam allows slavery, then GOD would have not condemned Pharaoh in the Qur'an, instead GOD would have said bravo to Pharaoh.

                              Child marriage has existed for thousands of years, does that mean it is okay?

                                    Salaam Zulf,

                                    what??!!

                                    culture shock ;D

                                    Not entirely. But if you have sex then you should officially marry, at least according to some old customs. Of course some Middle-Eastern customs apply to Quran.

                                    I deem sex without intention is wrong and that sex is binding to oaths.

                                    God bless you

                                      MA MALAKAT AYMANUKUM means Those whom YOUR right hand possess.
                                      In 425, GOD says marry ma malakat aymanukum and NOT for illicit sex. So what the heck is this illicit sex?

                                      Illicit sex on that case is committing adultery with slave.

                                      Your high support towards having sexual intercourse with slaves really remind me of hadiths that say men may have coitus interruptus with female captives.

                                      I don't care what hadith says. All my argument is based on quran verses, not other source.

                                      No wonder some people see islam as sex-maniac religion. I feel bad for people like you.

                                      True believer shouldn't care too much of what people may think as long as he stick on God's guidance (quran).

                                      Islam applies death penalty for certain crime. People want to say that Islam doesn't respect human right? Go ahead!
                                      Islam stipulates that in some cases male has some advantages comparing to female. People want to say that Islam is unjust? Go ahead!
                                      Islam allows polygamy. People want to say that Islam is retarded? Go ahead!

                                      True muslim worshiping God, not people's opinion.

                                      Just because slavery has already occurred since thousands of years ago, doesn't mean it is okay. GOD says many times in the Qur'an persecution / oppression is worse than murder. If GOD says to free slaves that means you must free your slaves. No slavery in islam. If islam allows slavery, then GOD would have not condemned Pharaoh in the Qur'an, instead GOD would have said bravo to Pharaoh.

                                      I never said that something is okay just because it occurred since long time ago, it so absurd! I just explain a bit historical background of slavery so we get a more precision view about it.

                                      Based on quran, slavery (possessed people) as a social reality never be forbidden. Quran admits such reality and regulates it with certain rules.

                                      Pharaoh condemned because he denied God's verses and he proclaimed himself as deity/god. That is nothing to do with the fact that he enslaved israelis.

                                        Salaam,

                                        What kind of polygamy are you talking about?

                                        God bless you
