Concept of Biological Warfare: An Analytical Review in the light of Archetypes and Traditions

Abstract

Biological warfare is the deliberate use of disease-causing pathogenic organisms such as bacteria, fungi and other toxins to harm humans, agriculture, animals and ultimately the economy of specific opponents as an act of war. Unlike conventional warfare, biological warfare releases invisible agents of devastation that cause damage to both people and the environment. With an emphasis on the fundamental tenets of conflict (the defense of life, justice, and the environment) this article explores the idea, history, and moral ramifications of biological warfare via the prism of Islamic beliefs. In addition to taking the lives of unwitting individuals, biological arsenals destroy environments, cattle, and agricultural produce, resulting in extensive and permanent damage. The Islamic concept of moral warfare, which requires moderation, kindness, and the protection of non-combatants and natural resources, is essentially at odds with such gratuitous damage. Applying the qualitative methodology, an extensive research examination of primary Islamic texts, including the Quran and Hadith, as well as academic elucidations of Islamic values has been done in this article. Comparisons with cases of biological warfare from the past and present provide additional insight into Islam's moral position on the matter. This study emphasizes how Islamic values, which oppose the excessive destruction of biological warfare, support a view of conflict which values the lives of people and the natural world.
