Abstract

Minority rights have always been one of the challenging topics of international law. Despite global efforts, no specific institution or organization has been established to defend the rights and freedom of minorities in the international arena, and their support has often been politically motivated. In Islamic international law, minorities have a special position and respect. In the Islamic legal system, "minority" refers to those who follow the traditions of "Judaism", "Christianity" and "Magicism". These people, who are also known as "people of the book", can live as citizens in the territory of the Islamic government by using the "Zhamma" contract. The main philosophy behind the legislation of the "Zhamma" contract is to create a peaceful coexistence between religious minorities and Muslims in the Islamic society. The peace-seeking policy of the beloved Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) and Muslims in dealing with religious minorities was not only due to strictness and caution, but it is an obvious and undeniable fact that the spirit of tolerance and tolerance towards the People of the Book is in the authentic Islamic teachings. It shows; Because Islam respects their true followers because of the special respect it has for God's prophets. The practical life of the beloved Prophet and his successors is a proof of the right of the Holy Prophet and true Muslims.
