Protection of Human Life in Light of the Holy Quran and Sunnah: Exploring Sanctity and Prohibition

Islam values human life highly. According to the teachings of the Holy Quran and the traditions of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him), human life is held in great reverence. Investigating a wide range of facets that encompass human existence, this research adopts Islamic laws as a basis to explore the entirety of human life, from start to end. The focus of this research is on the inherent sanctity and inalienable right to life in Islam, and the univocal prohibition of murder and aggression against human life in Islamic teachings because Islam regards the act of killing someone as the most heinous crime one can commit against a person. This paper investigates the notions behind Qisas (retaliation) and its current implementation in selected Muslim states. It explores the intricacies surrounding Diyat, including the financial compensation paid for causing harm or death, as well as the concept of taqiyah (family Solidarity). Furthermore, the research paper explores the justifications provided by certain scholars who do not support the implementation of the death penalty for murder within the confines of Islam. The researcher has used the doctrinal methodology to conduct the research. Within the text's closing statement, the suggestion is put forth to employ the Islamic Penal System in Muslim societies today to ensure the safety of individuals' lives.

Islamic life and death in Australia, after 1890: The archaeology of cameleer burials

Among the best-preserved, prominent, and most diagnostic archaeological artefacts of the camel transport industry from the period after ∼1890 in Australia are the graves of Muslim cameleers that can be found across the continent, from a single grave at the most isolated site to cemeteries in capital cities. They tell a story—directly from the cameleers—that usually cannot be read from other evidence. These graves vary from the simplest tumuli in remote areas that conform with the strictest Islamic ideals to complex graves with a superstructure, headstone and a detailed epitaph. English may be used in epitaphs with or without Arabic or Dari, and less commonly we see Arabic or Dari with no English. This makes it clear that Muslim epitaphs were not solely addressing other Muslims. In many cases, the name, date and origin of the interred individual remains unknown, and this prevents more detailed interpretation. In other cases, graves with greater complexity may include passages from the Quran, and there are even some epitaphs that give great personal details of Muslim life in Australia. Such detail includes divisions between tribes and Islamic sects. Major deviations from correct Islamic grave orientation in two cemeteries cannot be convincingly explained, but these suggest another case of diversity in the tribal and sect affiliation of these individuals. Burials of these Muslims restored in the late twentieth century are no longer solely religious monuments but are also socially motivated in a more diverse and integrated Australia. There are several indicators by which the graves of Muslims can be identified, but they may also overlap with Christian graves in other elements of style. These indicators tie burial practices to Islam in Asia. Finally, orientation relative to the qiblah is not invariably diagnostic.
