This chapter discusses a bigger project that aims to study the relationship between military orders and Muslims living in their Iberian lands during the Middle Ages. A significant number of the Muslims mentioned in association with military orders were slaves. Although undoubtedly many Muslim captives of the orders ended up as slaves and were appreciated for the potential role, they also held value in themselves as leverage for the liberation of Christians who had suffered the same fate. The interpretation of the partial exemption, and also the status of Muslims living under the rule of the Order, becomes even more muddled because of another contradictory account.
