RIGHTS OF NON MUSLIMS IN ISLAMIC SHARIYA LAW

 

Islamic constitution is also called Sharia law.  Non-Muslims have the following rights in Sharia law:

1• Non-Muslims have the right to freedom of religion.  They can adopt any religion of their choice.

2• Non-Muslims have full right to freedom of expression, which is not even available to the majority in a country like India.  Explanation: For example, in India or in democratic countries like India, if a person belonging to the majority class uses derogatory language against a prophet, he can be arrested and punished by registering an FIR against him.  But under Islamic Sharia law, even if a non-Muslim has used abusive words for an Islamic prophet, then that non-Muslim cannot be taken into custody, it is a far cry from punishment.

The statement that , cut  the head from body, is a far-fetched thing.  Muhammad sahab said that it was wrong to take a non muslim into custody even if he had spoken something abusive for him.   Many such peole in police custody were presented in front of Muhammad, who were accused of speaking abusive words about Muhammad.  Muhammad asked the police officers of that time that they should be released immediately if there were no other charges in addition to this charge, because it is illegal detention and illegal detention is a violation of human rights.  I do not understand that when there was no such law in the time of Muhammad, then how did this law come into existence after him?

But yes, if a person has done the same act by declaring himself a Muslim, then the order for him is to cut his neck by following the law of " Gustakh- E- Rasool  ki saza Sar tan se Juda "

3• Full freedom to non-Muslims to celebrate their festivals

4• Complete freedom to celebrate one's own customs

5• Rights against exploitation etc.
