I need you to write a short essay using the reading attached (Clarence-Smith). You need to choose one of the following questions to answer in the thesis (with 3 reasons) and each body paragraph has a topic sentence with 1 of those 3 reasons:
1) After reading this article, do you agree with Bernard Lewis that “Islamic abolitionism is a contradiction in terms?”
2) Based on your readings, including this one, how useful is Marshall Hodgson’s idea of “Islamicate” culture (the culture associated with, but not necessarily derived from, Islam), in understanding slavery in Arabia?
3) What were the main arguments used by Islamic “Modernists” in opposing or limiting slavery in Islamic societies?
4) Overall, which factor was more important in Islamic abolitionism – intellectual trends within Islam, or external pressure from European powers?
You need to have an introduction, 3 body paragraphs, and a conclusion. You need to include evidence/quotes from the reading. I have attached the rubric and an essay I wrote from a previous reading for reference(Hunwick Narrative).
