Once Islam began to gain control in SE Asia, (13-14th century on) the slave trade expanded particularly via the jihad expeditions of the Malaccan and other ‘sultanates’ against non-Muslims. Islam’s slaves were transported to and from SE Asia as their African, Indian and SE Asian slave trades were linked.

In SE Asia under Muslim rule, slaves were engaged in “almost every conceivable function” “Many members of the slave owning merchant class had strong roots in the Islamic world which had a clear body of law on slaves as property.” (A Reid cited in Khan p 299; p 143)

After Muslims came to power in the early 15th century, animist hill peoples eventually disappeared due to their enslavement and ‘incorporation’ into the Muslim population of Malaya, Sumatra, Borneo, and Java via raids, tribute and purchase, especially of children. Java was the largest exporter of slaves around 1500. Slaves were captured in decisive wars of Islamization. (Khan p 286, p 143). Islamic jihad, slavery and people trafficking continue today.
