a research concerning the principles of the right for human dignity in sources of rules

human dignity is examinable at least in three fields: human dignity, divine dignity, and socio-conventional dignity. in this article, due to time limits, we have only dealt with a part of what can be presented about dignity (karāmat), i.e., argumentative proof of human dignity. in general, there are two major systematic methods for confirming the propositions and premises mooted in the context of jurisprudence and islamic law. the first method is using the jurisprudential (ijtahādī) evidences and the second is determining the practical principle. from the viewpoint of the author, these two methods are apt to come up with for proving the human dignity right. one is following up the jurisprudential evidences of human dignity and the other is being content with the lack of valid reason in suspicious instances for human degradation and, as a result, negating the right to degrade humankind in the light of jurisprudential evidences. the first method is maximal and the second is minimal. in the present work, i have tried to prove the right for human dignity with the use of the above two methods. in this context, too, our time is very limited and for this reason we would address only some of the evidences and promise the respected readers a more detailed discussion at a more sufficient length of time in future.
