Sanctity & inviolability of human lives
Because God is the creator of life and the only controller of it, He owns every creature’s life. God states in the Quran
in relation to the first murder incident in the history when Cain, the son of Adam, killed his brother Abel:
“For that We decreed for the Children of Israel >span >had not committed murder or horrendous crimes (mischief on the earth), it shall be as if he had murdered all the people, and whosoever saves the life of a human-being, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all humankind.”
The Quran, 5:32
