In light of rampant globalisation and intolerance of cultural particularities, Abdullah Bin Bayyah outlines the Islamic view of human rights in comparison with the Western position elucidated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. In this short but detailed book, bin Bayyah expounds the meaning of human rights in Islam based on the Islamic Sacred Law. He looks to the past, utilizing examples from the time of the Prophet to prove the reality of equality, and looks to the present day as well. Islam & Human Rights: A Conversation is a conversation on freedom, women's rights and consultation (shura) and democracy. In the latter part of the book, bin Bayyah speaks to how Islamic criminal legislation protects the rights of individuals and groups, and compares the evolution of human rights in the West and in Islam. Especially interested in relativism and universalism in human rights, bin Bayyah asks: should civilisational diversity and the right of cultural difference affect human rights? In an exploration of this question, he delineates the bases for disagreement and illustrates the stakes using the texts of a few declarations from Muslim-majority countries.

How can injustice be uprighted from that horrible hot blistering day in Florida, August 2005. As a grandmother and grandfather waited outside of a divorce and custody courtroom to testify to the best of their knowledge to protect their precious granddaughter. Instead, the grandparents were SHANGHAIED into the courtroom by a deceiving Judge. As they were entering the Judge immediately cleared the courtroom. He then railed upon the grandparents, ordered the police officers to [illegally] SHACKLE them, and drag them out the back door to six months in Prison. No attorneys present, no rights, no law. In addition, the evil Judge applied a zero contact Restraining Order with the granddaughter they had helped raise. Their grandchild had trusted the grandmother with her tearful story of painful abuse. How could this happen when they had broken no laws, and were protecting their grandchild? Even worse - the Evil Judge stated that he was giving sole custody of the child to her Dad, her alleged perpetrator... This story is about love...struggles...faith...trust being broken...abuse...betrayal and Injustice resulting in irrevocable loss.

This open access book provides a snapshot of the state of contemporary access to justice in England and Wales.Legal aid lawyers provide a critical function in supporting individuals to address a range of problems. These are problems that commonly intersect with issues of social justice, including crime, homelessness, domestic violence, family breakdown and educational exclusion.

It documents the current state of the sector as well as the social and economic factors that make working in the legal aid profession more challenging than ever before.Through data collected via the Legal Aid Census 2021, the book is underpinned by the accounts of over 1000 current and former legal aid lawyers. These accounts offer a detailed demography and insight into the financial, cultural and other pressures forcing lawyers to give up publicly funded work. This book combines a mixture of quantitative and qualitative analysis, allowing readers a broad appreciation of trends in the legal aid profession.This book will equip readers with a thorough knowledge of legal aid lawyers in England and Wales, and aims to stimulate debate as to the fate of access to justice and legal aid in the future.The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0. licence on bloomsburycollections.com

This volume contains contributions from three conferences held within the framework of the project "Law between Dialogue and Translation (The Example of Palestine)", funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). The conferences were hosted by the project partners from the Department for Arabic and Islamic Studies of the University of Göttingen (Germany) and the Faculty of Law from Al-Quds University (Palestine) in 2019 and 2020, and the School of Graduate Studies of the State Islamic University Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta (Indonesia) in 2021. The project aimed to analyze how international law and human rights norms are implemented or "translated" into national legislation, with a special focus on the role of Islamic law and institutions in these processes.The volume provides a theoretical introduction on the concepts of "translation" of law and of "legal pluralism" and continues to discuss four main areas in which different practical aspects of these concepts can be observed: 1) the dealing of German and Palestinian judicial institutions with the relation between state, religion and rights of the individual, 2) achievements and challenges of women's rights implementation in Indonesia, 3) the entanglement of Sharia, Customary and State law in Palestine, and 4) recent developments in international criminal and humanitarian law in the Palestinian context.
