Fighting for Human Rights in the Vernacular Settlements: Probing into the Incident "Fakh" in Iraq

Abstract

This research examines the human rights violations that occurred during the incident known as the "Fakh" in 169 AH (785 AD) under the Abbasid Caliph Musa Al-Hadi. Led by the revolutionary martyr Hussein bin Ali, the "Fakh" incident sparked uprisings against injustice and tyranny, resonating with free-minded people globally. The study highlights the importance of human rights as the foundation for freedom, justice, and peace throughout history. By exploring the manifestations of human rights violations during the "Fakh" incident within its temporal context, the research aims to analyze the intersection between law, Sharia, and human rights principles. The ultimate goal is to shed light on the circumstances, repercussions, and deterrent measures within religious and legal jurisprudence regarding such violations.
