Male slaves:
S 2:23 And if you are in doubt about what we have sent down upon our slave then bring a surah of the like of it and invoke your witnesses instead of Allah if you are truthful.
S 2:90 Miserable was what they bought themselves with, to disbelieve in what Allah sent down, in oppression that Allah sends down from his favour upon whom he wills of his slaves. So they have come back with anger upon anger. And the kafirun have base torture.
S 2:178 Those who have believed, retribution has been written for you regarding the killed. The free man for the free man and the slave for the slave and the female for the female. But he who has been pardoned something for it by his brother then following with kindness and performance to him with doing good. That is relief from your lord and mercy. Then he who has transgressed after that has painful torture.
What does "The free man for the free man and the slave for the slave and the female for the female." mean?
S 2:207 And of people is he who buys himself seeking Allah’s pleasure. And Allah is kind to the slaves.
The author probably meant sells himself.
S 2:186 And when my slaves ask you about me, I am near. I answer the invocation of the invoker when he calls me, so let them answer me and believe in me; perhaps they will go the right way.
S 2:221 And do not futter the mushrikat until they believe. And a believing maid is better than a mushrikah even if she has pleased you. And do not give to the mushrikun in nikah until they believe, and a believing slave is better than a mushrik even if he has pleased you. Those call to the fire and Allah calls to the Jannah and forgiveness with his permission. And he clarifies his verses for people; perhaps they will remember.
S 3:15 Say: Shall I inform you of better than that? For those who have feared, with their lord are jannat, rivers running beneath them, abiding indefinitely therein, and purified husbands and pleasure from Allah. And Allah is a seer of the slaves.
S 3:20 And if they argue with you say: I have surrendered my face to Lah and he who has followed me. And say to those who were given the Book and the ummiyun: Have you surrendered? Then if they have surrendered then are they guided. But if they turn away then only the notice is upon you. And Allah is seer of the slaves.
S 3:30 The day every soul finds what it has done of good presented and what it has done of evil it wishes that there were a far distance between it and it. And Allah warns you of himself. And Allah is kind to the slaves.
S 3:79 It was not for a human being that Allah should give him the Book and the wisdom and the prophethood then he says to people: Be slaves to me instead of Allah but: Be rabbaniyun because you have been teaching the Book and because you have been studying.
S 3:182 That is because of what their hands have offered and that Allah is not an evildoer to the slaves.
S 4:118 Allah has cursed him and he said: I will take from your slaves an obligatory share.
S 4:172 The Messiah will not disdain to be a slave of Lah’s nor the angels, the Mukarrabun. And those who disdain his worship and are arrogant, he gathers them to him, all.
S 5:118 If you torture them they are your slaves and if you forgive them you are the mighty, the wise.
S 6:18 And he is the despot above his slaves. And he is the wise, the expert.
S 6:61 And he is the despot over his slaves and he sends keepers over you until when death has come to one of you our messengers have caused him to die and they are not negligent.
S 6:88 That is Allah’s guidance. He guides therewith whom he wills of his slaves. And had they associated, what they used to do would have become worthless for them.
S 7:32 Say: Who has forbidden Allah’s adornment which he has brought out for his slaves and the good things of the provision? Say: They are for those who have believed in the dunya life, exclusively, the day of resurrection. Thus do we detail the verses for people who know.
S 7:128 Musa said to his people: Seek aid from Allah and be patient. The land is Lah’s. He causes whom he wills of his slaves to inherit it. And the result is for the fearers.
But:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
While we were in the Mosque, the Prophet (ﷺ) came out and said, "Let us go to the Jews" We went out till we reached Bait-ul-Midras. He said to them, "If you embrace Islam, you will be safe. You should know that the earth belongs to Allah and His Apostle, and I want to expel you from this land. So, if anyone amongst you owns some property, he is permitted to sell it, otherwise you should know that the Earth belongs to Allah and His Apostle."
S 7:194 Those whom you invoke instead of Allah are slaves the like of you. So invoke them, let them respond to you, if you are truthful.
S 8:41 And know that what you have plundered of a thing, that Lah’s is a fifth of it and the messenger’s and the relatives’ and the orphans’ and the needy ones’ and the traveller’s, if you believe in Allah and what we sent down upon our slave on the day of the Furqan, a day the two crowds met. And Allah is mighty over everything.
S 8:51 That is for what their hands have offered. And that Allah is not an evildoer to the slaves.
S 9:104 Have they not known that Allah, he accepts repentance from his slaves and takes the charities and that Allah, he is the repenter, the merciful?
S 10:107 And if Allah touches you with harm, there is no remover of it but him and if he wants good for you, there is no repeller of his favour. He strikes with it whom he wills of his slaves. And he is the forgiver, the merciful.
S 15
S 16:75 Allah has coined a similitude, a slave who is owned who has no power over anything and him whom we have given a good provision from us so he spends of it secretly and publicly. Are they equal? Praise be to Lah! Rather, most of them do not know.
S 17:1 Praise be to the one who travelled by night with his slave at night from the Sacred Mosque to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, whose precincts we have blessed, to show him from our signs. He is the hearer, the seer.

S 24:32 And give the single among you and the righteous of your slaves and your maids in nikah. If they are poor, Allah enriches them from his favour. And Allah is wide, learned.
S 25:1 Blessed be the one who sent down the Furqan upon his slave that he may be a nadhir to the ‘alamin,
In the passage above, who is to be a nadhir, the one that is to be blessed, supposedly Allah, or this unnamed slave?
S 34:9 So have they not looked at what is in front of them and what is behind them of the sky and the Earth? If we will we can cause the Earth to swallow them or cause fragments of the sky to fall upon them. In that there is a sign for every regretful slave.
