حقوق السجين في الفقه الإسلامي والقانون البروناي

Abstract

Not many know the rights of prisoners as prisons are located in a closed place where prison is not the place for public to go to as they wish. This study is to recognize the rights of prisoners in terms of Islamic Law and the Law of Brunei. The methodology of the study was carried out by descriptive research on information that is related to prisoners whether through books, research findings, research, laws of Brunei Darussalam and official website of the Brunei Prisons Department. The results of the study found that in terms of Islamic Law, prisoners were still entitled to have their rights related to ritual and their affairs either they are personal or not and it is the same for the Brunei law as they still receive rights just like other people which are their daily needs such as clothing, nutrition education and so on. At the same this study shows how the prisoners practise their rights in the prison. Therefore, the rights of prisoners according to the Islamic Law and Law of Brunei are no different.
