Abstract

Human rights, a hotly debated issue in the 1970s Muslim world, engaged diverse groups like governments, political activists, civil society members, intellectuals, thinkers and even common people. Though not a novel development, the phenomenon represented renewed interest by individuals and groups regarding many issues, including democracy and secularism. Shaykh Rāshid al-Ghannūshi ̇̄ – the ‘most adroit and flexible’ Tunisian Islamic reformist leader and primary ideologue of Ḥizb al-Nahḍah – is a prominent voice who discussed widely the issue of human rights. In this regard, his famous book al-Ḥurri ̇̄yyāt al-‘Ᾱmah fi ̇̄ al-Dawlah al-Islāmiyyah represents a core strand of his thought. In the contemporary era, Ghannūshi ̇̄, through his prolific writing and appealing intellectual discourse, especially on the issues of Islam–West relations, democracy, pluralism and human rights, engages the minds of intellectuals globally. Considering the global importance of this religio-political thinker, the current study, while exploring how the concept of human rights emerged in the West, will examine and explore objectively Ghannūshi ̇̄’s views on human rights. Moreover, this article will focus on understanding his vision about hotly debated issues such as apostasy, freedom in Islam and the West, and the rights of women.
阅读Rashid Al-Ghannushi关于人权的辩论
人权是20世纪70年代穆斯林世界的一个热议话题,涉及政府、政治活动家、公民社会成员、知识分子、思想家甚至普通民众等不同群体。虽然这不是一个新的发展,但这一现象表明个人和团体对许多问题,包括民主和世俗主义重新产生了兴趣。谢赫Rāshid al-Ghannūshi (Rāshid al-Ghannūshi)是“最熟练、最灵活”的突尼西亚伊斯兰改革派领袖,也是Ḥizb al-Nahḍah网站的主要理论家,他是广泛讨论人权议题的知名人士。在这方面,他的著名著作al-Ḥurri (yyāt) al- 'Ᾱ(mah fi () al- dawlah al-Islāmiyyah)代表了他思想的核心。在当代,Ghannūshi通过他丰富的写作和吸引人的知识话语,特别是在伊斯兰-西方关系、民主、多元主义和人权问题上,吸引了全球知识分子的思想。考虑到这位宗教政治思想家的全球重要性,本研究在探讨人权概念如何在西方出现的同时,将客观地考察和探讨Ghannūshi的人权观。此外,本文将重点了解他对诸如叛教、伊斯兰和西方自由以及妇女权利等热点问题的看法。
