Abstract

The human rights has reserved for mankind immense security that guarantee a life of dignity and respect in this world. The different concepts of human rights are very universal and cover all aspects of life, which indicate a refreshed and contended life.  Different sorts of rights are need to be explored and the main objective of this study is to analyse the human rights with different perspectives. The present study also covers the strategic implications of human rights in the focused context of their implementation in Western and Muslim world. At present, the concept of society and culture is rapidly changing and losing its original glory, which need to be addressed in an organised way. The present research work is qualitative and based upon both primary and secondary sources e.g. Holy Quran, Hadith, dictionaries, encyclopaedia, books and articles published in various journals. It is worth mentioning that Islam not only presented equal rights for man and women but also for the rest of the creatures which is a true sign of universality of Islam. Huge difference is seen in the implications and implementations of western and Islamic human rights but the true implementation can protect humanity from exploitation.
