Having these rights, which are emphasized in Islam, is a sign of human dignity. Therefore, the principle of human dignity, which is the determining principle in relation to the situation and how to treat convicts, has recognized the right to health for convicts. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to examine the strategy of Islamic criminal policy in guaranteeing the health rights of convicts as a manifestation of Islamic human rights.

So much so that it can be said that respecting the rights of convicts has always been emphasized in the verses of the Qur'an, the traditions and the life of the Prophet (PBUH) and Imams (PBUH).

To the extent that principles such as the principle of human rights and the behavior consistent with human dignity that have been formed with convicts show the special attention of the Islamic religion on Islamic human rights years before the approval of international human rights declarations and documents related to the health rights of convicts. |
