Ablution of slavery refers to the act of cleansing or getting rid of the institution of slavery. It implies the effort to eradicate and end all forms of slavery or servitude within a society or community.
Slavery tolerated because of necessity involves accepting slavery as a temporary solution to fulfill a specific need, such as labor shortages during times of crisis. On the other hand, slavery affirmed as a moral right involves believing that owning and exploiting other humans is justifiable and morally acceptable.
