Abstract
The discourse of human rights in Islam is earlier than other concepts or teachings. That is, Islam comes inherently with the teachings of human rights. Islamic teachings of human rights can be found in the main source of normative teachings, namely Al-Qur'an and Hadith which contains the life practice of Muslims. This is evidenced by the Medina Charter (mitsaq al-Madinah) initiated by the Prophet Muhammad when migrated to the city of Medina. The covenant document contains, among other things, the recognition and affirmation that all groups in the city of the Prophet, whether Jews, Christians or Muslims, are one nation (ummatan wahidah). Islam in addition for talking about human rights also talks about the obligations of Human Rights (KAM) which becomes a counterweight and alignment to achieve the benefit of the ummah (maslahah al-ummah).
