description |
Child labor is a serious world phenomenon that affects child’s rights.
In general, child labor reflects any form of child employment whether
it is hazardous or not-hazardous to children’s welfare. Millions of
children are working around the world in order to assist their
destitute family, or themselves. It is so unfortunate that many are also
forced to involve in dangerous employment like armed forces, drug
trafficking and sexual exploitation. This clearly violates children
rights especially the right to receive kind treatment, maintenance,
good health and education. In Islam, children are regarded as
bounties from Allah the Almighty and should be loved and cherished.
This paper examines an Islamic overview on child labor and how
children should be protected. Our analysis extends to certain means
that Islamic law may offer to further protect children from labor. For
that purpose, the analysis will involve examination on Islamic
perspectives on the role of the government in combating child labor
and what are the preventive measures that may be undertaken in
order to prevent child labor. |
