520 |a The implicit requirements in the Islamic concept of human rights stem particularly from the right to life (individual rights), forced labour, the right to property, freedom of speech, etc. Human rights in early civilizations were composites of various philosophies that served a people’s social and cultural contexts. Both religious and secular conceptions of civilization determined the laws that dictated early human rights. In the wake of World War II, the United Nations General Assembly compiled and adopted a document called The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The day of its adoption, 10 December 1948, became known internationally as "Human Rights Day." But the declaration could do little to actually prevent widespread violations of human rights throughout the world. Millions of people had inviolable rights as humans but died as the result of inhumane actions. Western civilizations and societies addressed the question of human rights but did so with great variation in application and entitlement. At present, with over 30 million human beings enslaved and the majority of them women and children, we cannot afford to ignore this issue. But an impoverished country is not the only culprit - nor is Asia, although the Pacific Rim is the most heavily enslaved areas on the globe. In America itself, trafficking is the third highest source of commercial profit, with more than 300,000 people enslaved today. And America partakes both in import and export of the slave network, with 14,000 people trafficked into the country each year. The history of human rights is a long examination of the question of what is "natural and right" about the human condition. Human rights, broadly speaking, should be unchallengeable and universal. This article deals with the need to highlight the value, importance of rights, and dignity of human beings from the Islamic perspective. The individual and property rights protected in Islam have no match at present either. Respect for human beings can be realized with the call "anyone who freed a slave will find his place in gardens of heaven." Then companions of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) took up the challenge and did all they could for the liberty of slaves. The Pious Caliphs did every thing for the protection of human rights.
