Background research on animal rights in international documents with emphasis on Prophet Life and Shiite Imams

Animals have been more influential in the way humans live since the beginning of creation, and this influence continues, which is why, with the advancement of science, industry, and culture in recent times, more attention has been paid to animals and their rights. For almost two centuries, Western societies have been active in the field of animal rights protection and have published the results in the form of international documents worldwide. This research has been done in a descriptive-analytical method with emphasis on comparative studies and its information has been collected in a library method. The result of a comparison between the latest World Charter of Animal Rights and the Ahl al-Bayt tradition: that animal rights in Islamic culture as well as in the tradition of the Gods Prophet and the nine Shiite Imams, which was about 12 to 14 centuries ago, is much more complete and complete than international law.
