The right to social security and the provisioning of basic necessities of life is considered as one of the primordial Human Rights. This social security system and the fulfillment of the basic needs of man have been given recognition by almost all the international, regional and national instruments of human rights. It received recognition by all the revealed religions of the world. The religion of Islam lays great emphasis on this important aspect of social security and the provisions of necessities of life of the subjects of an Islamic state. There is no denial to the fact that survival of man’s life without the basic necessities of life is near to impossibility. One cannot survive without food; clothing and shelter .They are essentially required for man’s existence. The system dealing with such necessities of life and ensuring its provisions is termed as the social security system. Islam being the religion of nature has not ignored only this important aspect of life, rather has ensured the provision of basic necessities of life. Even a cursory look at the contents of the Islamic ideology indicates that the Quran and the Sunnah have dealt in depth with every aspect of social security system in order to make man’s life valuable and dignified. The present study explores different aspects and dimensions of ‘Social Security System’ in Islam drawing a sharp comparison with western social security systems.
