Islam dan Hak Asasi Manusia dalam Konsepsi Fathi Osman
Abstract: The relation of
Islam as a religion and the notion of human right has attracted a lot of
attention both from the activists and the academics. One of the academics that
has paid a good deal of attention to this issue is an Egyptian scholar named
Fathi Osman. This paper is dedicated to explore his ideas, suggestions and
conceptions on the issue at hand. It contends that Osman is mainly concerned
with the synthesis of Islamic concept and the notion of human right adopted by
the international community. The paper exposes Osman’s strategies in pursuing
the synthesis, which begins by careful investigation on both Islamic and modern
concepts of human right, then followed by identifying the strength and weakness
of each concept. This strategy is aimed at gaining a clear idea about how a new
concept of human right should be formulated. The paper will also ask whether
Osman’s synthesis is both practical and conceptual. By practical, we mean a
concept which rooted in the real experiences as far as human rights are concerned.
And by conceptual, we mean whether Osman’s ideas are derived from the
theoretical analysis of both Islamic sources and the sources of modern idea on
human rights.
