dc.description.abstractRights of the child are remains one of the most important areas of human rights in present times. The international community has responded well by adopting Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989. However, cultures, customs, and traditions at different parts of the world have tremendous importance as compared to legal regulations. Throughout the Muslim World when Muslims do something they try to bring in justification from Islamic law. The current work is therefore intended to discuss this myth and among the important questions raised in this work are: whether child’s abuse is allowed in Islam; whether Islamic law allows violence against children; what is the status of child’s exploitation in Islam; what is the position of Islamic law regarding child labour as well as child sex? The methodology used in this work is the original sources of Islamic law and the opinions of Muslim jurists are cited to support or refute a position. The main findings of this work are that Islam prohibits violence against children; their abuse is unlawful, their exploitation is banned and it is against child labour. Child exploitation, child labour, and selling or buying children for sex are prohibited under the Islamic law.en_US
