Tuğba Çelik Korkmaz
İnsan hakları dediğimizde ırk, ulus, din, dil ve cinsiyet ayrımı gözetmeksizin tüm insanların yararlanabileceği hak ve özgürlüklerden bahsederiz. Bu haklar evrensel, devredilemez ve değiştirilemez niteliktedir. Yaşama hakkı, din ve vicdan özgürlüğü, mülkiyet hakkı, seçme ve seçilme hakkı, özel hayatın gizliliği hakkı, eğitim hakkı, beslenme ve barınma hakkı sahip olduğumuz temel insan hak ve özgürlüklerinden bazılarıdır. Bu hakların insanlara doğuştan verili olduğu kabul edilmektedir. Bununla birlikte insanların söz konusu temel haklardan vazgeçmek gibi bir hakkının olup olmadığı temel bir tartışma konusudur. Bu bağlamda "İnsan, en temel hakkı olan yaşama hakkından özgür iradesi ile vazgeçebilir mi?" diye bir soru karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Diğer bir ifadeyle "Kişi yaşama hakkını kullanmama ya da yaşama hakkından vazgeçme özgürlüğüne sahip midir?" diye sormak mümkündür. Aynı zamanda yaşama hakkından vazgeçmenin niçin birçok toplumda hoş karşılanmadığı ve temel insani değerlere aykırı olarak görüldüğünün aydınlatılması gerekmektedir. Tarihsel süreçte yaşama hakkından vazgeçmenin lanetlendiği toplumsal yapılar ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu çalışmada, kişinin yaşamını sonlandırma hakkı, insan hakları çerçevesinde felsefî olarak ele alınacak ve intihar ile ötanazi kavramlarına ilişkin değerlendirmeler tartışılacaktır. Bu çerçevede yaşama son verme hakkının temel insan haklarına dâhil olup olmadığı analiz edilecektir.

Purba, Tumian Lian Daya; Karimullah, Suud Sarim; Palit, Silvester Magnus Loogman
This study comprehensively examines how existing environmental policies often exacerbate social inequality and neglect the rights of vulnerable communities, particularly minorities, indigenous peoples, and those living below the poverty line. This study adopts a library research method, exploring the concept of eco-apartheid and its implications for human rights through an integrated literature review, combined with a content analysis approach. The results of this study confirm that eco-apartheid reflects structural injustices that violate human rights, particularly the right to a clean and healthy environment. Land grabbing, exploitation of natural resources, and urban segregation widen ecological and social inequalities, which are exacerbated by weak law enforcement and the dominance of corporate interests. The right to a decent and healthy environment has been recognised in international law proceedings, such as UN Resolution No. 76/300 of 2022, the 1972 Stockholm Declaration, and the 1992 Rio Declaration. In the ASEAN region, exclusive development has marginalised poor communities and reinforced eco-apartheid, necessitating a new legal paradigm that places the environment as a subject of human rights protection, with the application of various principles of precaution and vigilance, transparent policy reform, and protection for environmental defenders. Ecologically, just legal excellence is critical for eliminating eco-apartheid and guaranteeing every individual's right to a safe, fair, and sustainable environment.

Ibrahim, Zumiyati Sanu; Karimullah, Suud Sarim; Sulastri; Gönan, Yavuz; Okur, Hüseyin
The background of this study is rooted in the significance of human rights as a universal principle, which often faces challenges when applied within the context of Islamic law. The main issue is the incompatibility between some practices of Islamic law and the principles of human rights, which raises the question of how these two legal systems can interact without compromising their fundamental values. This study aims to explore the relationship between Islamic law and human rights, understand the challenges arising from differences in interpretation and implementation, and offer solutions to bridge these differences. This study uses a qualitative method combining text analysis, literature, and secondary data better to understand the concept of human rights in Islam and identify areas of potential conflict. The results show that the relationship between Islamic law and human rights is complex, where potential conflicts and convergence efforts coexist. Despite potential conflicts, the values of justice, equality, and human dignity in Islam align with Human Rights principles. However, differences in interpretation and implementation of the law can be a significant source of tension. This study highlights the importance of an approach rooted in cross-cultural and religious dialogue, as well as respect for diversity, to achieve a more harmonious convergence between Islamic law and universal human rights.

Insani, Nur; Ibrahim, Zumiyati Sanu; Karimullah, Suud Sarim; Gönan, Yavuz; Sulastri
This intersectional study investigates the harmonisation of Islamic law and human rights in the context of empowering Muslim women through Islamic economics. This study applies an intersectional approach in carrying out the library research method with literature analysis carried out integratively and comprehensively to explore and review various literature sources relevant to the research topic, including journal articles, books, research reports, policy documents, and other related sources of information. The results show that harmonisation between Islamic law and human rights in empowering Muslim women through Islamic economics significantly impacts achieving gender equality and supporting sustainable development. The complexity of Muslim women's identities influenced by factors such as religion, gender, and social class demands a holistic and integrated policy approach in the economy. While the Islamic economy offers great potential to enhance the role of women as agents of change and key drivers of economic development, the incompatibility between Islamic law and human rights conventions and issues of gender inequality points to the need for more inclusive legal and policy reforms. Identifying and recognising these challenges underscores the importance of adopting a comprehensive and coordinated approach. Specific measures that need to be strengthened include inter-agency cooperation, legal and policy reforms to support better gender equality, capacity building of women in the Islamic economic sector, and raising public awareness on the importance of women's empowerment. As such, this study enriches the academic literature and offers practical guidance for policymakers, stakeholders in the Islamic economy, and the general public in advocating and implementing effective and sustainable women's empowerment.
