Human Rights and Justice in Islam

Human Rights and Justice in Islam

Islam provides many human rights for the individual. The
following are some of these human rights that Islam protects.
The life and property of all citizens in an Islamic state are
considered sacred, whether a person is Muslim or not. Islam also
protects honor. So, in Islam, insulting others or making fun of
them is not allowed. The Prophet Muhammad _ said: { Truly
your blood, your property, and your honor are inviolable. }1
Racism is not allowed in Islam, for the Qur’an speaks of
human equality in the following terms:
_ O mankind, We have created you from a
male and a female and have made you into
nations and tribes for you to know one another.
Truly, the noblest of you with God is
the most pious.2 Truly, God is All-Knowing,
All-Aware. _ (Qur’an, 49:13)
Islam rejects certain individuals or nations being favored
because of their wealth, power, or race. God created human
beings as equals who are to be distinguished from each other only
on the basis of their faith and piety. The Prophet Muhammad _
We should even be just with those who we hate, as God has
said:
_ ...And let not the hatred of others make you
avoid justice. Be just: that is nearer to piety....
_ (Qur’an, 5: Cool

The Prophet Muhammad _ said: { People, beware of injustice,
1 for injustice shall be darkness on the Day of Judgment. }2
And those who have not gotten their rights (i.e. what they have
a just claim to) in this life will receive them on the Day of
Judgment, as the Prophet _ said: { On the Day of Judgment,
rights will be given to those to whom they are due (and wrongs
will be redressed)... }
