Human rights are compass-less values: an Islamic Human Rights discourse

The other group consists of Muslims from an orthodox-dogmatic perspective who 'argues that the phenomenon of' human rights' is a…See More

Honor your parents, do good to them, fulfil their needs (bi-l-Walidayni ihsanan). 3. Neither kill your children for fear of poverty nor deprive them of proper training and education (la taqlutu awladakum min im’laqin). We provide for you and for them. 4.
