Introduction
In the Name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful
A brief message entitled "Human Rights in Islam" and delivered before
conferences and seminars, both at home and abroad, had its English translated
text, as prepared by the Islamic Centre in Washington and its French
translation, as prepared by the People's Assembly Translation Department, not
fully compatible, prior to their addressing to some conferences, with the
Arabic-published original text.
This is justifiably because the Arabic - written paper appeared in
several ways which varied according to the difference in subject and title, a
matter impelling occasionally the handling, with more care, of some basics
against others.
I hope the message bears good for its Muslim reader to further entrench
his faith in Islamic Shari'a and for its non-Muslim reader to become better
acquainted with the grandeur, tolerance and mercy of Islam and its tendering of
mankind at large. We have only sent you for the good and welfare of humanity.
May God guide us along the right path.
