Abstract
Human rights are issues that are always discussed and have not provided a single understanding. This article aimed to analyze human rights from the perspective of the Imam school of thought by using the analysis of the thought of Imam Al-Shafi'i. This research was qualitative using the library research method based on data management obtained from several pieces of literature. Furthermore, this research used a normative approach by adapting several books of Imam Al-Shafi'i. The research found that human obligations and rights in Islamic law, according to Imam Al-Shafi'i, became an inseparable unit. Muslims must be far back to see the birth history and the development of human obligations and rights. As is meant by Imam Al-Shafi'i, human right is a fundamental thing, and it is worth fighting for social beings. His thinkers about human rights can be seen in some of his works, such as Al-Umm and Al-Risālah. These works are very outside for those who want to learn about human rights. The work and application of human rights imposed by Imam Al-Shafi'i are not much different from what is explained by several figures of human rights thinkers who come from the West. It was as the author found a match in his application after seeing the development of human rights thought from several figures. It is expected that contemporary Muslim scholars prioritize the issue of human obligations and rights in providing legal solutions to Muslims.
