The Islamic view of Human Rights, Inefficiency or Necessity

The claim of inefficiency of Islamic human rights which is demonstrated in different ways is one of the fundamental and logical challenges. The present paper, which discusses and criticizes the most important argument which support this claim, examines the assumption that the model of Islamic human rights is paradoxical, and refers to the paradox in assuming that other human rights declarations are sound, a view which Islam rejects. On the other hand, it examines the assumption of the necessity of adopting an extra-religion view about human rights and inefficiency of the intra-religion view about them to conclude that neither extra-religion view is "necessary" nor intra –religion view is "inefficient"; rather they, on the whole, are possible though for accessing real and sound human rights it is necessary to have religion as a basis.
