African Discussion 🎙️ Why are there still religious Africans when Religion has caused us nothing but harm?

This might be a very controversial and disliked take but if we look at history, the abrahamic god has truly done nothing for our continent. The Arab slave trade lasted for over 13 centuries. That's at least 50 generations. The Trans Atlantic slave trade also lasted 4 centuries which might have not been as long as the Arab one but caused just as much harm and even divided us into this huge diaspora. Where was this all loving, all knowing and all powerful god during this time?

Please do not attack me this is a genuine question I have for all religious Africans.
