The ups and downs of history show that the protection of minorities is necessary to ensure stability and peace. International security is necessary and discrimination against people belonging to these groups. Internal stability, regional and international peace and security are exposed to serious threats. The main existential philosophy of the legislation of Aqd Dhamma in Islam is to create a peaceful coexistence between religious minorities and the majority of Muslims in the Islamic society. Also, the instrumental goal of the system is to protect the rights of minorities, prevent war and conflict between people belonging to minorities and majority groups in different countries the ray of preserving the territorial integrity of the states and as a result of preserving regional peace and security; Therefore, in order to ensure regional peace and security, it is necessary to support the minorities. The authors of this article believe that supporting minorities and guaranteeing their rights in international law and establishing an Islamic approach based on the peaceful collective life of groups Social diversity, as a basic and preventive solution to ethnic conflicts, is of vital importance in achieving regional peace and security.

Öz

Uluslararası barış ve güvenliğin korunması, bölgesel barış ve güvenliğin sağlanması dışında, ki bu da iç toplumlarda istikrar ve güvenliğin varlığına bağlıdır, mümkün görünmemektedir. Tarihin iniş ve çıkışları, istikrar ve barışın sağlanması için azınlıkların korunmasının gerekli olduğunu göstermektedir. Uluslararası güvenlik gereklidir ve bu gruplara mensup kişilere karşı ayrımcılık yapılmamalıdır. İç istikrar, bölgesel ve uluslararası barış ve güvenlik ciddi tehditlere maruz kalmaktadır. İslam'da akide mevzuatının temel varoluş felsefesi, İslam toplumunda dini azınlıklar ile Müslümanların çoğunluğu arasında barış içinde bir arada yaşamayı sağlamaktır. Ayrıca, sistemin araçsal amacı azınlıkların haklarını korumak, farklı ülkelerdeki azınlıklara ve çoğunluk gruplarına mensup insanlar arasındaki savaş ve çatışmaları önlemek, devletlerin toprak bütünlüğünü korumak ve bunun sonucunda bölgesel barış ve güvenliği korumaktır; bu nedenle, bölgesel barış ve güvenliği sağlamak için azınlıkların desteklenmesi gerekmektedir. Bu makalenin yazarları, etnik çatışmalara temel ve önleyici bir çözüm olarak azınlıkların desteklenmesinin ve uluslararası hukukta haklarının garanti altına alınmasının ve grupların barışçıl kolektif yaşamına dayalı İslami bir yaklaşımın tesis edilmesinin bölgesel barış ve güvenliğin sağlanmasında hayati öneme sahip olduğuna inanmaktadır.
