Abstract

The aim of this study is to conduct a comparative analysis of the protection of human dignity and the prevention of discrimination from the perspective of Islam and International Humanitarian Law (IHL). This study attempts to clarify the similarities and differences between these two systems and examine the principles of each system for the protection of human dignity and rights. This study compared the principles of Islam and IHL through an analytical and comparative method. International documents, Islamic sources (Quran and Hadith) and IHL were used. This study is based on the analysis and comparison of documents. The results of the study show that both Islam and IHL emphasize the protection of human dignity and anti-discrimination laws. Islam has strongly opposed any form of discrimination based on its principles, while IHL supports these principles through international conventions. Islam and IHL demonstrate that human dignity must be protected for all human beings and that all forms of discrimination must be eliminated. Both systems share a fundamental principle of equal rights, justice, and respect for human dignity. A comparison of these systems shows that there is broad international support for these principles. Governments and international organizations should enhance the coherence between Islam and IHL to ensure the broad protection of human rights. Awareness of human dignity and the prevention of discrimination should be raised through educational programs. There is a need to develop laws at the international level to protect human rights based on the principles of Islam.
