Protection of Human Rights: In the Light of Sirat Tayyaba: (A Special Study of the Rights of the Less Powerful)

Abstract

Human rights in Islam are based on equality and respect for humanity. Before Islam, the less powerful members of society were living a life of extreme despair and suffering. With the advent of Islam, human rights were protected and moral values were promoted. The Holy Prophet ﷺ came to this world as a mercy for the universe. The prophet ﷺ defined the rights for every member of the society. The agreement in Makkah is an important milestone for protecting human rights. The holy Prophet ﷺ defined the rights of the less powerful members of the society and bestowed them with honor and respect. A fetus is a child who is still in the mother's womb, Islam gave him the right to life and inheritance. Before Islam, people used to kill their children due to the fear of hunger and poor, Islam put an end to this bad practice and explained the rights of children. Islam declared disabled people as entitled to more attention than ordinary people and gave them special rights by giving them a special position. Before Islam, domestic servants were looked down upon, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ completely changed this concept and advised them to treat them with kindness. Islam declared the elderly to be honorable and a source of blessings, whereas in today's advanced age, instead of keeping the elderly at home with dignity, they are left at the mercy of the old house. In human history, the poor, needy, and forced people were considered hateful. With the advent of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, these people saw a ray of hope. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ gave them equal rights to other members of society and Sponsorship is considered a reward. Islam taught us to treat indebted with gentleness, compassion, and kindness. In the same way, the Messenger of Allah taught us to treat travelers, guests, workers, sick, and prisoners with kindness and take care of their rights. There are many practical examples of this in Sirat Tayyaba.
