The principles of Islam that can be applied to improve the situation. The ethical issue in this case study is the rogue security guard who killed bank officer Norazita Abu Bakar before running away with RM450,.000 people from Ambank branch in Subang Jaya were arrested this morning in Johor. Three ethical issues can be highlighted from this case: i. Murder ii. Rob iii. Use of fake identities All these ethical issues will be discussed briefly one by one, including the principles of Islam that can be applied to improve the situation.i. The laws of murder in Islam. In Islamic law, killing someone without a valid reason for killing is strictly prohibited. The glorious Quran condemns the killing of human beings (except in defense or as capital punishment). Allah SWT went even further, equating the unlawful killing of a single human being to the mass murder of all humanity: "For this reason, We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone killed a person not in retaliation by murder or by spreading evil on the earth, it would be as if he killed all humanity. And whoever saved one life would be as if he saved all humanity." (The Noble Quran: Surah Al-Maidah, 5:32) However, in general, Islamic law provides that murderers are subject to the death penalty. However, the victim's heirs can choose to exempt the killer from the death penalty in exchange for monetary compensation. The killer will still be sentenced by a judge, perhaps to a long prison term, but the death penalty will be taken off the table. This principle is known as Diyyah, which unfortunately in English is known as "blood money". We speak more appropriately of "victim compensation". While the most common thing... middle of paper... singing a fake identity to suit one's interests is prohibited in Islam. Therefore, this type of situation can be dealt with if someone does not lie to another. References Akbar, M. (n.d.). Niche of truth: Islamic law on robbery.
