The answer

The Holy Quran and the Prophetic forbid aggression against human rights. Allah has forbidden the killing of a soul unjustly, saying: (And do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden, except by right). He has forbidden consuming others' wealth unjustly, saying: (And do not consume one another's property wrongfully). He has forbidden slandering one's honor, saying: (Indeed, those who accuse chaste women, unaware [of evil], believing – are cursed in this world and the Hereafter, and for them is a tremendous punishment). He has forbidden injustice, saying: (And whoever among you commits injustice – We will make him taste a great punishment). He has forbidden harm, saying: (And those who harm believing men and believing women for [something] other than what they have earned have certainly borne slander and manifest sin). He has also legislated retaliation (qisas), cutting off the hand of a thief, stoning the adulterer, and flogging the unmarried person and the slanderer.
