  • Abstract
    Inherent dignity is one of the great qualities of human and fundamental rights of all human beings, so that no condition makes it conditional. In this respect, there are many beneficial discussions in teachings of the divine religions and especially on the life giving school of Islam, a sample of which can be downgraded as follows, so that human being has been turned into an unprecedented position in terms of inspiration of the Divine Spirit and consequently, many blessings have been brought about for him through attaining such sublime position. Of course, all Muslims and the Worlds have been tasked with safeguarding this inherent dignity. The inherent dignity of human is a universal and innate rule which cannot be imitated. The necessity of observations of this important effect has also been reflected in the constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran. To expand inclusion of this rule in the international arena, the need to safeguard human dignity has been reiterated and crystallized in documents such as Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Declaration on Human Genome, Declaration of Helsinki, International Declaration of Bioethics, UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization) Human rights, etc.
