ISLAM ON THE EFFECTS AND SOLUTIONS OF JUSTICE ADMINISTRATION IN THE DOMAIN OF HUMAN RIGHTS


Aliakbar ASA, Ahmad BAGHERI
Abstract

Demand of equality, fairness and justice is among the most important issues in religious thoughts as well as the modern system of human rights. Here we need to evaluate human rights system based on the justice touchstone. The modern system of human rights though insists on the principle of justice, due to its being influenced by the philosophical foundations of individualism and humanism, it gives priority to the individual in the domain of legislation and codification of rights. This approach has led to the prioritization of the demand of a group of human individuals before the rights of majority and in it justice and human dignity have been ignored. However, in Islamic human rights, man as the Deputy of Allah has been chosen as the axis of legislation and his rights have been regulated by the Creator of Universe based on his primordial nature. In current essay, we have sought using discursive analysis to explain the challenges of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and codify the solutions of administration of justice as deemed by Islam in the statutes. These solutions include concentration on human existential identity and aspects, taking human dignity as the axis and considering human primordial nature as touchstone. Being beyond space and time, compatibility and harmony, proportion, continuation and enjoying performance bond are among the effects of justice based human rights‎‎‎.
