The answers on Hawramani.com are based on the research of Ikram Hawramani in the Quran, hadith, scholarly works and respected fatwa sources. You can view Ikram Hawramani's credentials on the about page. Please note that we do not issue fatwas, we only compile the opinions of respected scholars (even when a fatwa is not explicitly cited) to make their opinions accessible to English-speaking Muslims. If an answer does not cite fatwas, please feel free to leave a comment asking for a fatwa citation and we will update the answer as soon as possible to include fatwas.

IslamQA: Should we put religion above humanity or humanity above religion?

Brother, I wanted to ask if it is correct for me to say that we should place humanity above religion? But what does that have to do with "religion is superior and there must be nothing above it"?

The question doesn’t come up because the goal of Islam is to ensure the welfare and long-term survival of humanity. You cannot place one above the other, they go hand in hand. It’s like asking if we should put healthcare above humanity.

And God knows best.
Asking questions is temporarily unavailable. Sorry for the inconvenience.
