Abdullah Saeed: Islamic Law, Human Rights and Women Towards Equality

Abstract

This article aims to understand Abdullah Saeed's thoughts on Islamic law and human rights and how to harmonize Islamic law and human rights. As written by Abdullah Saeed, the problem related to human rights is a concern of Saeed because of the debate between Islamic law and human rights. It seeks to find a solution to how Muslims respond to the debate to reconcile human rights discourse with Islamic norms and values. This problem has given rise to international human rights instruments that affirm gender equality and protect women from discrimination. The emergence of human rights brought from the West, which is predicted to solve the problem of discrimination against women, is considered not to provide significant changes to women in the world because international law and its application in non-Western cultures are not in harmony with Islamic law and even become a controversial issue. This library research tries to examine Saeed's thinking and find solutions related to the debate on Islamic law, human rights, and gender equality. Possible reconciliation so that there will be a balance between international human rights and Islamic law.
