In the logic of the wise of the world, the right to life is above all other rights that human beings have over each other. The right to life means, for example, that you were in danger of drowning, and someone saved you. In other words, they returned this life in the material world to you that was about to be taken away. However, this life that has been returned to us is both limited and vulnerable. The Almighty God states, “The Prophet(pbuh) will give you life” (Quran 8:24). This is a life that gives you happiness in this world, and it also illuminates your soul. This life is not limited. It is eternal.
