Abstract
- This study explores the alignment of the noble Islamic Sharia's emphasis on preserving human life and safety with international conventions and national legislation, particularly in the context of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Grounded in the principles of Islamic Sharia, which prioritizes the preservation of the soul, the study employs a qualitative analysis of the UAE's health policies and legislative measures against the pandemic, guided by the World Health Organization's recommendations and supported by a review of the UAE Constitution and global COVID-19 statistics. Findings reveal that the UAE's comprehensive health and legislative measures to combat the pandemic align with Islamic Sharia and international health guidelines, highlighting the effectiveness of integrating religious principles with modern health policies for pandemic preparedness and response. This study offers valuable insights into enhancing public health crisis management through integrating religious principles and modern legislative measures, underscoring the importance of strengthening legislative and healthcare systems in controlling communicable diseases.
