Abstract

This research paper, titled "Honour Killing and Its Societal Impact: An Islamic Perspective," offers a qualitative analysis of honour killings and their repercussions on contemporary society through an Islamic lens. Honour killings, a form of violence deeply rooted in cultural practices, are often justified by distorted interpretations of honour and moral codes. This study explores the complex interplay between such practices and Islamic teachings, aiming to clarify misconceptions and provide a contextual understanding of the issue.Utilizing qualitative research methods, this paper examines historical, theological, and socio-cultural perspectives to evaluate the Islamic stance on honour killings. It incorporates in-depth interviews, case studies, and textual analysis to discern how Islamic principles and legal frameworks address and condemn such practices. By investigating the religious, legal, and ethical dimensions, the research seeks to elucidate the Islamic viewpoint on honour killings and highlight the ways in which Islamic teachings promote justice, equality, and human dignity.The findings underscore that honour killings are contrary to Islamic values and jurisprudence, which emphasize the sanctity of life and the prohibition of unjust violence. This study also discusses the socio-cultural factors that contribute to the persistence of honour-based violence and proposes recommendations for addressing these issues within the framework of Islamic ethics. The research aims to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of honour killings and advocate for reforms aligned with Islamic principles to combat this form of violence effectively.Overall, this paper provides a critical examination of honour killings through an Islamic perspective, offering insights into the alignment of religious teachings with contemporary societal norms and legal standards.
