Abstract

Islam se, kao jedna od utjecajnijih svjetskih religija, odlikuje brojnim specifičnim elementima u odnosu na ostale religije. S obzirom da obuhvaća društvo u cjelini, islam ima svoju političku i religijsku dimenziju. Međutim, sve veći je problem razlučivanje djelovanja muslimana u odnosu na te dimenzije. Središnji dio proučavanja islama čini njegova kaznena politika, odnosno šerijat kao normativni dio. Specifičnost kaznene politike osim u njezinoj povezanosti s religijskom dimenzijom, nalazi se i u kategorizaciji kaznenih djela te popratnih sankcija. Kaznena politika islama, s obzirom na pluralizam islamskih zajednica, nema jedinstvenu primjenu. U svojoj srži ona sadrži šerijatske odredbe poput kamenovanja, tjelesnog kažnjavanja, bičevanja te smrtne kazne koja nije karakteristična samo za šerijat, međutim te kazne se ne primjenjuju u svim zemljama na jednak način. Posljedica je to utjecaja kolonijalnih sila i procesa modernizacije na muslimanske zemlje, te njihove sposobnosti za ponovnu uspostavu šerijata. Nešto slabije istaknut element kaznene politike islama je koncept restorativne pravde, koji svoju implementaciju danas pronalazi uglavnom u sankcioniranju maloljetnika, gdje se kaznena politika islama nastoji donekle usuglasiti s Konvencijom o pravima djeteta, u onim zemljama koje su potpisnice predmetne Konvencije.

Abstract (english)

As one of the world's most influential religions, Islam differs by many specific elements comparing to other religions. Considering it encompasses the society as a whole, Islam has its own political and religious dimension. However, separation of the activity of the Muslims in relation to those dimensions has been a growing problem. The central part of studying Islam is its policy, namely, Sharia law, as enacting terms of the religion. The distinctiveness of the penal policy, apart from its relation to the religious dimension, is also based on the categorisation of the felony acts and their penalties. Considering the pluralism of Islamic communities, Islamic penal policy doesn't have a uniform application. In its core it contains regulations such as stoning, physical punishing, lashing and death penalties, which is not only carried out by Sharia. Nevertheless, those penalties are not equally applied in all countries. They are a consequence of the influence of the colonial forces and the process of modernisation to the Muslim world and its abilities to re-establish Sharia. A less prominent element of the Islamic law is the concept of restorative justice, which finds its deployment mainly in sanctioning minors, where the Islamic law is trying to somewhat accommodate to the Convention on the Rights of the Child, in those countries which are signatory.
