Human Rights as Defined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and by Islam
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page report discusses the differences in the Islamic point of view regarding human rights and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Declaration was composed as part of the United Nations’ framework for member countries as a “common standard.” In essence, its thirty articles assert that “all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.” In comparison, the various Islamic human rights “arrangements” (civil, social, judicial, and political) offer and that rely on Islamic principles and sources, systematically limit, rather than protect or expand, the sorts of civil and political rights found in the Universal Declaration and related international law. And yet, not one voice or one nationality serves as a single representative of all of Islam. It should be noted that the diversity of Muslim views is as great as on any other political issue. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Interfaith Marriage in the Islamic Religion
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing interfaith marriage in the Islamic religion. Interfaith marriage is not recommended in Muslims as Muslims are encouraged to find spouses with a similar religious outlook for the sake of future compatibility and for the raising of children. However the guidelines for marriage in the Qur’an do allow for some instances of intermarriage between Muslim men and non-Muslim women but not between Muslim women and non-Muslim men. For those couples who have interfaith marriages in the Islamic religion, mostly in the Western countries where there are fewer Islamic communities, they have reported success only when they allow themselves equal respect for each other’s religion, educate themselves about the practices of each other’s religion, maintain open communication regarding the practicing of religion, the raising of children and the recognition of holidays. Despite the liberal views of many interfaith couples, difficulties still arise in the raising and faith of the children. Muslim men who have children who have not be raised Muslim may have difficulty bringing them into Islamic states and retaining custody after a divorce. In the world today however and despite the strict guidelines of the Qur’an, interfaith marriages are occurring with the couples themselves largely deciding how to handle their choices for success in their marriage.

International Human Rights Law Vs Sharia Law: Western Ideology And Islamic Cultural Interpretation Of Gender
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The obvious conflict that exists between International Human Rights law and Sharia law as they both relate to women indicates a cultural basis upon which gender is approached. Clearly, any attempt to apply the International Human Rights law, which is based upon Western ideology, to countries that practice Sharia law, which is based upon the teachings of Islam, is a most difficult application to make. Women and culture have long represented various relationships in different cultures; as much as the International Human Rights law has attempted to bridge the obvious gap that exists between gender and humane treatment, it has failed to achieve its objective throughout myriad patriarchal nations. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
