Zarar (Harm) as a Foundation for Criminalization in Islamic Criminal Policy
Abstract
Public order and security is ensured through criminalization, which itself is based on principles, one of which is the principle of harm. The principle of harm justifies criminalization in various fields. Of course, the nature of its harmfulness is different from the secular approach according to the attitude of Islam. In the approach of Islam, the realm of harm includes material harm and spiritual harm. Severe damage covers life, property, thought, victimless crimes and public areas. Islamic criminal law, in addition to the aforementioned examples, has criminalized harm to morality and chastity and prescribed appropriate punishments under the heading of extreme punishments and Shariah punishments. With this approach, the principle of harm as the basis of criminalization in Islamic criminal policy has a wide scope.
