Universal Human Rights: A Comparative Research
Generally speaking, no other single issue within both Western and Islamic declarations of human rights is more vital than this very issue of inherent human dignity. Accordingly, the universal authorities on human rights needs to form a highly educated and spiritually illuminated team of scholars from all corners of the world comprised of anthropologists, psychologists - of course, not professional behavioral scientists - legal and moral scientists, religious authorities who believe in a holy scripture revealed by One God and equip them with all needed facilities so that they codify a true ( and intelligible) declaration of human rights upon the basic rights of the right to life, the right to education, the right to committed freedom and the right to equality according to their enlightened reason and conscience.The truth is that if the inherent dignity of humanity is not demonstrated through clear reasons, the ruining formula of "I am the end and the others are merely my means" shall so continue to trigger bloody conflicts between human beings.
The formula that "all human beings are members of the same family and no one in this large family is better than the other as equal humans," is only acceptable in the divine logic of holy prophets, and of course not in the aggressive logic of hunters of pleasure and selfish hedonists. The universal authorities on human rights urgently need to secure man's connection with his creator and the realm of intelligibility if they are to implement fundamental human rights. It is for sure that today no religious conflicts would prevent humanity from touching his basic rights, as the needed ground has already been laid by cultural and philosophical discourses for mutual understanding on religion. Is it not possible now for us as humans to live peacefully with each other under the religion of father Abraham?
