Abstract
Islam attaches great importance to property rights and at the same time takes active responsibility for the overall welfare of the state's citizens. In the continuation of this, the issue of acquisition of land by state for public interest has also received great attention in Islamic law. Acquisition of land by state is required to undertake various developmental projects. Employing descriptive and analytical methods this article has demonstrated that acquisition of land for public interest is valid subject to several conditions in Islam. In this case, the interests of both the people and the owners should be taken into consideration. No one can be oppressed. Although Islamic law has similarities with conventional domestic law, in many cases the interests of land owners are neglected. This article has endeavored to substantiate that in case of acquisition of land for public interest Islamic Law has provided more importance than Conventional Law to protect the interest of both parties.
