	Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Cairo Declaration of Human Rights in Islam (CDHRI) is a declaration of the member states of the Organization of the Islamic Conference, which affirms Sharia — Islamic law — as the sole source of human rights.
		In 1981, the Iranian representative to the United Nations, Said Rajaie-Khorassani, articulated the position of his country regarding the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, by saying that the UDHR was a "a secular understanding of the Judeo-Christian tradition", which could not be implemented by Muslims without trespassing the Islamic law.
		The declaration was adopted on August 5, 1990 by 45 foreign ministers of the Organization of the Islamic Conference to serve as a guidance for the member states in the matters of human rights.

		The Geneva declaration regarding the international conference on Palestine in 1983, which reaffirmed the right of all states in the region to exist within safe and internationally recognised borders, including the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination on its land and to establish a Palestinian state.

		And it restates the adherence of all its groups and institutions to that declaration.

		Perhaps the people who wrote the Cairo Declaration were aware of the wide gulf in their conception of human rights and did not want to highlight it.
		To sum up, the Cairo Declaration allows stoning as punishment, prohibits Muslims from changing their religion, prohibits usury, does not give women equal rights and divides the world between Muslims and infidels.
		All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

	IV. THE ANTI-BLASPHEMY PROVISIONS UNDER REGIONAL INSTRUMENTS - B. Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam
		Members of the OIC passed the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam on August 5, 1990.
		Though, in fact, the Cairo Declaration appears as Pakistan's best, and perhaps only, chance to justify its anti-blasphemy provisions under an extra-territorial covenant, it is important to recognize that the Declaration itself came well after the issuance of the anti-blasphemy provisions.
		Indeed, a retroactive attempt at reconciling legal persecution of religious minorities with the precepts of a fledgling regional instrument not endorsed by the majority of the world *79 is but a contradictory and perfunctory attempt at saving Pakistan's once leading commitment to religious freedom while still advocating a debilitating, strictly Shari'a-based legal system.
