Human interests are primary / Darruriyat include
Maintenance in:
1. Religion, is the first goal of Islamic law because religion is a guideline of human
life, and in the religious creed of Islam other than the component parts of a
creed and moral life of every Muslim who is a Muslim way of life, there are also
Islamic way of life which is a Muslim with his God & in touch with other human
& objects in the community.
2. Soul, is the second objective of Islamic law, Islamic law therefore required to
maintain the people's rights to life and for humans to sustain life.thus Islamic
law forbids murder (Q 17:33).

3. Intellect, is necessitated by Islamic law,
because by Used human minds can think
about God, the universe and himself, to
develop science and technology.And to
maintain the sense that Islamic law
forbids any person to drink intoxicating
beverages; called Khamar (Q 5:90).

4. Descendants, for pureness Blood can be maintained
and the continuation of mankind can be continued, This
is reflected in the blood relationship that a requirement
to be able to inherit each other (Qs: 4:11), Prohibitionmarriage ban (Q 4:23), and the prohibition of adultery
(Qs 17:32). Law of kinship and inheritance laws of Islam
are specially created by God to preserve the purity of
blood and public descent.
5. Property, according to the teachings of Islam is God's
gift to humans, for humans to sustain life.Therefore,
Islamic law protects people's rights to acquire property
in ways that lawful and legitimate and protect the
interests of one's wealth, society and state, instance of
fraud (Q 4:29), Embezzlement (Q 4:58), Deprivation (Q
