摘要
The Muslim world is now a world of conflict and forced migrants (Dar al harb wa al muhajirun). Asylum and "refuge-seeking" are two important themes in Islamic history. Islamic theory and teachings relating to refugees and forced displacement are known as hijrah law. It is quite different from modern refugee law. It arguably gives more protection to asylum-seekers and refugees (mustaminun). However, hijrah law is rarely referred to or invoked today. If they were taken into consideration, it could contribute greatly to the protection of the forcibly displaced. It might also reduce the numerous problems refugees all over the globe are facing.
