The role and status Peaceful coexistence Islam and International Law

Journal Title: Journal of Science and today’s world - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 6

Abstract

This article to describe the principles governing international law and international relations from an Islamic viewpoint. After presenting the rules and principles governing international relations in the Islamic system, the author emphasizes the principles of sovereignty and non-interference in the internal affairs of other States and the aspiration of Islam to peace and harmony. He goes on to explain the relationship between Muslims and others in peacetime or in the event of war and the classical jurisprudential division of the world into the abode of Islam (dar al-islam) and that of war (dar al-harb). Lastly he outlines the restrictions imposed upon warfare by Islamic Shari‟a law which have attained the status of legal rules. While the voices of “the clash of civilizations” are echoing loud, and the so-called “war on terror” is influencing the fate of some communities and many groups of individuals in various countries of the world, it is appropriate to recall the humanitarian values that rally nations and peoples around them. From an Islamic point of view we believe that the difference between people is one of God‟s firmly established traditions, and that it is the source of wealth and harmony of the entire human race. There are many Islamic principles that endorse this standpoint. We shall explain some of them in general, those that apply to the relationship between Muslims and others in peacetime or in the event of war. We shall point out that Islamic States belong to the international community with all its organizations and instruments. We shall also take into account the existence of armed conflicts and situations of occupation inside and outside Islamic countries, despite the aspiration of the Islamic nations to live in peace and harmony with all nations and races.
