        The Universal Declaration of Human Rights focused on determining the most important principles of human rights and freedoms, including freedom, equality and, etc. But despite its global nature, it has raised many challenges among the nations of the world, including Muslim countries. This declaration ignores the main basis of human rights, which are emphasized in Islam, that is, the uniqueness of God, which is ignored and limited to human intellects in it, and the centrality of man in compiling this declaration is one of the main challenges that the new Western world has created for the Islamic world. The present study has been written with a critical and comparative expression, in a descriptive-analytical method with a library approach. The results of analytical arguments show that human rights from the perspective of Islam are part of the school of Islam, divine laws and faith of the heart that recognizes and binds on human rights. But the focus of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is on human reason and the denial of any ethnic, religious or cultural domination of man. Therefore, in religious thinking, human rights are more thoughtful and guarantee more implementation. There are many similarities and differences between the International Charter of Human Rights and the Declaration of Human Rights from the perspective of Islam. However, due to differences in the philosophical and ideological foundations of many of the basic principles of the two charters, these concepts cannot be absolutely accepted by Islam in the same way as stated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
