Exceptions in Islamic idea as to general concept of human right:

   1.      The rights and duties are co existed within a given time according to general concept, but the concept of right is invisible rather followed the direct order of Allah.
   2.      Rights are often subject to qualification in general concept, but under the Islamic philosophy they are absolute when it is recognized.
   3.      Qualifications may be placed on human right in the aggregate common interest and to serve particular specified policies, but the Islamic idea has no scope of politics in the field of human rights application.
   4.      Mutual recognition or agreement on the part of the state may make, restrict, suspend or enforce new sorts of rights, but in the Islamic idea state has the obligation to maintain the consistent application of human rights.
   5.      The freedom of expression: subject only to qualifications provided by law and necessary for the protection of national security or public health an d morals.
   6.      The right of peaceful assembly: subject only to restriction, imposed in conformity with the law and which are necessary in a democratic society in the interest of national security or public safety public order.
