4. INTRODUCTION:
The first thing that we find in Islam in this
connection is that it lays down some rights for
man as a human being. In other words it
means that every man whether he belongs to
this country or that, whether he is a believer or
unbeliever, whether he lives in some forest
or is found in some desert he is a human being,
which should be recognized by every Muslim.
In fact it will be his duty to fulfill these
obligations.

5. The Right to Life
The first and the foremost basic right is the
right to live and respect human life. The Holy
Quran lies down:
Whosoever kills a human being without (any
reason like) man slaughter, or corruption on
earth, it is as though he had killed all mankind.

6. The Right to the Safety of Life;
The Quran has mentioned this belief of the
Israelites and quotes the Jews saying:
"There is no blame on us (for anything we
may do) with regard to the unlettered folk
"And whoever saves a life it is as though he
had saved the lives of all mankind"

7. The Right to a Basic Standard of Life
Islam has recognized the right of the needy
people for help and assistance to be provided
to them. In the Holy Quran from the English
translation of the "Kanzul Iman", it states:
"And in their wealth there was the right of
the beggars and the unfortunate."

8. "There are three categories of people against
whom I shall myself be a plaintiff on the Day of
Judgment. Of these three, one is he who enslaves
a free man, then sells him and eats this money"
(al-Bukhari and Ibn Majjah).
Individual's Right to Freedom;
Islam has clearly and categorically forbidden the
primitive practice of capturing a free man, to
make him a slave or to sell him into slavery. On
this point the clear and unequivocal words of
the Prophet (S) are as follows:

9. Right to Co-Operate and Not to Co-Operate
"Co-operate with one another for virtue and heedfulness
and do not co-operate with one another for the purpose
of vice and aggression"
This means that the man who undertakes a noble and
righteous work, irrespective of the fact whether he is
living at the North Pole or the South Pole, has the right to
expect support and active co-operation from the Muslims.
On the contrary he who perpetrates deeds of vice and
aggression, even if he is our closest relation or neighbor,
does not have the right to win our support and help in the
name of race, country, language or nationality, nor should
he have the expectation that Muslims will co-operate
with him or support him.

10. "O mankind, we have created you from a male
and female." In other words all human beings
are brothers to one another. They all are the
descendants from one father and one mother.
Equality of Human Beings;
PROPHET MUHAMMAD (SAW) SAID:
SURELY GOD DOES NOT LOOK AT YOUR FACES
OR YOUR BODIES BUT LOOK AT YOUR HEARTS
AND YOUR DEEDS.

11. Conclusions
When principles of Human Rights enshrined in Islamic
Scriptures are seen in the present day context, it is difficult
to believe that even seemingly trivial issues, such as,
payment of wages to a laborer, poking fun at others, calling
someone by nicknames, not spying on others and not
entering some one else’s house without permission have
been taken care of. This is the divinity of the scriptures
Islam has clearly and explicitly denounced killing of
innocents and says that saving one life is like saving the
mankind
