Jurisprudential and Legal Analysis of the Rule "Nafyi Sabeel" in International Relations of Islamic States

Abstract

The rule "Nafyi Sabeel" is a foundational principle in Islamic jurisprudence emphasizing the independence and sovereignty of Islamic states. This study analyzes the jurisprudential and legal dimensions of this rule in international interactions, including treaties, economic cooperation, and diplomatic relations. Initially, the concept and foundations of "Nafyi Sabeel" are explored within Islamic texts, followed by an examination of its compatibility with contemporary international law frameworks. The research also addresses challenges such as the impact of international political and economic pressures on the sovereignty of Islamic states and potential conflicts between this rule and global treaties. Findings indicate that "Nafyi Sabeel" can serve as a tool to strengthen national sovereignty in Islamic states but requires reinterpretation of certain traditional perspectives.
