Reviving Cairo-Tehran Heritage Is Key for Future Human Rights

The article discusses the significance of the Islamic Human Rights and Human Dignity Day, which falls on August 5th, and is celebrated in honor of the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam. It highlights the history of this declaration, adopted in Cairo in 1990, emphasizing that it represents a civilizational response that integrates the principles of human rights with Islamic identity. The article underlines that participation in international dialogues does not mean accepting exclusive Western principles. It also clarifies that the Cairo Declaration was a step toward establishing the legitimacy of an Islamic reading of human rights, concluding that the universality of human rights does not require a single reference point. Since the 1990s, the course of these dialogues has undergone changes, especially with increasing differences between Islamic discourse and the global concept of human rights, with amendments introduced in 2020. The article ends by stressing the importance of transforming this heritage into a platform for ongoing dialogue that promotes regional cooperation and ensures the independence of the Islamic human rights discourse.
