Instead, there is this one verse in the Quran that actually give men the right to not have sex with their wives.
And slavery is forbidden anyhow in the Quran. You can't take slaves because it's not authorized (not even in one verse).
Actually:
[23:5-6] ‘And who guard their modesty – Save from their wives or the (slaves) that their right hands possess, for then they are not blameworthy…’
Meaning they are allowed to possess and have sex with slaves (and not be blameworthy). But definitely not people who aren't their wives or their slaves!
First, the verses in correct literal translation would be :
( 5 ) And they who guard their private parts
( 6 ) Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed
Second, "Molk al yameen" which is "possession of the right hand" which you translated into "slave", is something so different than slaves. Molk al yameen is more like a person whom agreed to serve you in exchange of safety and income.
Unlike the slave, who is bought and forced into slavery.
