The Human Dimension in the Noble Quran: A Thematic Analysis of Verses on Rights and Responsibilities

Open access
The research problem focuses on addressing issues of human rights and duties, which represent the essence of human life and concern societies across diverse cultures and religions. The Qur’?n has given these issues special attention, linking the fulfillment of rights to the pleasure of Allah and the path to His paradise. This research aimed to provide a comprehensive perspective that highlights the precision and comprehensiveness of the divine methodology in addressing human rights and duties, emphasizing the humanistic dimension that balances divine legislation with human nature. The study employed an inductive-analytical approach, followed by a deductive method, and concluded that the Qur’?n addresses rights in a manner that respects human nature. It emphasized rights such as self-preservation, family rights like those of wives, mothers, and daughters, the rights of vulnerable groups like orphans, and the right to livelihood security as a fundamental necessity of life. Regarding duties, the Qur’?n considered gradual legislation based on individuals' circumstances, affirming the principle of ease and removing hardship, linking duties to human happiness in this life and the hereafter. The research also highlighted the divine mercy in accepting repentance and atoning for sins, reflecting the humanity of divine legislation. It concluded with recommendations to promote values of justice and tolerance, reject hate speech, focus on scientific responses to doubts about religious obligations, and translate these responses globally to showcase the humanistic dimension of Islamic law. Furthermore, it called for in-depth studies to highlight the compassion of Islam and refute misconceptions objectively and scientifically.
