From the pen of 14th century muslim traveller Ibn Batutta comes to light all kinds of islamic facts -
<b>Reference they've given for the following is:</b> The Travels of Ibn Batutah - Edited by Tim Mackintosh -Smith Picador, pages 106, 111, 113, 137, 189, 163, 150, 105, 104, 115, 125, 157

The Travels of Ibn Battuta provides vital informations on various issues relating to society in his time.
<b>Widespread prevalence of Slavery especially the usage of women as Sex Slaves</b>
"The inhabitants of this city make no effort to stamp out immorality -indeed, the same applies to the whole population of these regions. They buy beautiful Greek slave girls and put them out to prostitution and each girl has to pay a regular due to her master ........I was told that the qadi in this city himself owns slave girls employed in this way.[3]
(Not much has changed. Islam still treats kafir women in kafir nations like this.)
"I bought in this city a Greek slave girl, a virgin, for forty gold dinars ".[4]
"I left it behind and set out with three of my companions, and a slave girl and two slave boys ".[5]
" and I had in my wagon three slave girls "[6]
"I had with me a slave girl, who was close to the time of her delivery, and I had intended to transp[ort her to Samarqand, so that she might have the child there."[7]
"Another reason for our halt was fear of the snow. For upon this road there is a mountain <b>called Hindukush, which means 'the slayer of the Indians 'because the slave boys and girls who are brought from the land of India die there in large numbers</b> as a result of the extreme cold and the great quantity of snow ".[8]
"On reaching Sind I followed this practice and bought horses, camels, white slaves and other goods.."".[9]
<b>Forced Conversions to Islam</b>
"And as for military commands, you know that the non Arabs were converted to Islam only at the point of the sword of the Arabs ".[10]
(What's that yelling? Oh, it's only the Indian communist hysterians cursing Ibn Batutta for having written his travelogue. Never mind them. They always howl when caught in their lies.)
<b>Destruction of the places of Worship of non Muslims</b>
"He also fights with the infidels continually and keeps them under siege. It was his father who captured the city of Bursa from the hands of the Greeks and his tomb is in its mosque, which was formerly a church of the Christians."[5]
"The site was formely occupied by a budhkhanah, that is an idol temple, and was converted into a mosque on the conquest of the city." (referring to Delhi).[11]
(More communist hysterians crying. Good - at least bloodshot eyes match with their Redness.)
<b>Status of Indian Muslims as compared to Arab and Turkish Muslims</b>
"The king of India, the Sultan Abu l Mujahid Muhammad Shah, makes a practice of honouring strangers and showing affection to them and singling them out for goverships or high dignities of state. The majority of his courtiers, palace officials, ministers of state, judges and relatives by marriage are foreigners, and he has issued a decree that foreigners are to be called in his country by the title of Aziz [honourable], so that this has become a proper name for them ".[12]
(Indian islamis wishing for mughalistan: you'll not be as special as other islamis; even in your own country.)
<b>Jaziyah</b>
"Most of the artisans there are Greek women, for in it there are many Greeks who are subject to the muslims and who pay dues to the sultan, including the Jaziyah " .[13]
<b>Jihad</b>
"He had war galleys with which he used to make raids on the environs of Constantinople the great and to seize prisoners and booty, then after spending it all in gifts and largesse he would go out again to the Jihad ".[14]
<b>Infidels</b>
"We lodged in the house of an old women, an infidel.".[15]
<b>Sexuality</b>
"He related also that the vagina of this Khatun has a conformation like a ring, and likewise all of those who are descendents of the woman mentioned. I never met, whether in the desert of Qifjaq or elsewhere, any person who said that he had seen a woman formed in this way, or heard tell of one other than this khatun -except, however that one of the inhabitants of China told me that in China there is a class of women with this conformation. But nothing like that ever came into my hands nor have I learned what truth there is in it."[16]
<b>Conduct of war and prisoners</b>
<b>"We carried the heads of the slain (infidels )</b> to the castle of Abu Bak har, which we reached about midnight, and suspended them from the wall ".[17]
(Like they're still doing with Buddhists in Thailand... Jihad is a holy islamic tradition, after all.)
