بیانیه جمعی از فقها، حقوقدانان و فعالان اجتماعی و سیاسی
در مخالفت با مجازات مرگ برای کودکان
جمعی از فقها، حقوقدانان و فعالان اجتماعی و سیاسی با امضای بیانیه‌ای مخالفت خود را با تعیین مجازات مرگ برای کودکان اعلام کردند. محمد بسته نگار(روشنفکر مذهبی)، رخشان بنی‌اعتماد (فیلمساز)، جعفر پناهی (فیلمساز)، دکتر حبیب‌الله پیمان (روشنفکر مذهبی)، دکتر غلامعباس توسلی (جامعه شناس)، حجت الاسلام محمد جواد حجتی کرمانی (فقیه و مجتهد)، مهندس عزت‌الله سحابی (روشنفکر مذهبی)، دکتر احمد صدر حاج‌سیدجوادی (حقوقدان)، دکتر علی‌اصغر غروی (دکترای فلسفه)، اعظم طالقانی (روشنفکر مذهبی)، شیرین عبادی (حقوقدان و برنده جایزه صلح نوبل)، حجت الاسلام محمد تقی فاضل میبدی (فقیه)، دکتر ناصر کاتوزیان (حقوقدان و استاد ممتاز دانشگاه)، حجت الاسلام مهدی کروبی (فقیه)، دکتر محمد مجتهد شبستری (فقیه و مجتهد)، دکتر صدیقه وسمقی (دکترای فقه)، دکتر ابراهیم یزدی (روشنفکر مذهبی) و حسن یوسفی اشکوری (فقیه) امضا کنندگان این بیانیه هستند.
این بیانیه بر اساس آموزه‌های دینی بر اعطای فرصت بازسازی شخصیت کودکانی که زیر ۱۸ سال دچار ناهنجاری‌های اجتماعی می‌شوند، تأکید دارد. همانگونه که «کانون مدافعان حقوق بشر» نیز در فراخوانی با عنوان «اعدام بس کودکان» فعالیت خود را با هدف توقف صدور و اجرای مجازات مرگ برای کودکان زیر ۱۸ سال آغاز کرده است. به گزارش سایت کانون مدافعان حقوق بشر بیانیه جمعی از فقها، حقوقدانان و فعالان اجتماعی و سیاسی که ششم اردیبهشت ۱۳۸۸ منتشر شده، به شرح زیر است:
به نام خدا
همه ادیان الهی و نیز مکاتب حقوقی، اطفال را همانند بزرگسالان مشمول مجازات ندانسته‌اند. بدین ترتیب به کودکان فرصتی برای درک موهبت زندگی، برخورداری از تربیت و شناخت مصالح و مفاسد اعطاء شده است. بر همین اساس امروز عرف جهانی اعمال مجازات به ویژه سخت ترین مجازات‌ها یعنی اعدام را نسبت به افراد زیر سن ۱۸ سال مردود و ناپسند می‌داند. قوانین اکثر کشورها و نظر بسیاری از کارشناسان ایرانی نیز بر این عرف صحه گذاشته است. هنگامی که قرآن کریم حتی نسبت به کسی که مرتکب قتل عمد شده ما را به عفو و بخشش دعوت می‌کند، بی تردید اسلام با اعطای موهبت حیات به افراد زیر ۱۸ سال که هنوز زندگی و خوبی‌ها و بدی‌های آن را درک نکرده اند، موافق است. با توجه به اینکه فتوای مشهور فقهی در این رابطه قابل تجدیدنظر بوده و حفظ دماء از مهمترین امور مورد تأکید ادیان الهی و عقل است و نیز با عنایت به این نکته که ایران عرف جهانی مذکور را با امضای کنوانسیون حقوق کودک به درستی تأئید کرده، ما اکیداً خواستار متوقف ساختن صدور حکم اعدام و اجرای آن در مورد افرادی که زیر ۱۸ سال مرتکب بزه می‌شوند و اصلاح قوانین موجود در این جهت هستیم.

Based on the religious teachings, this communiqué emphasizes on endowing children, less than 18 years of age, who commit social wrongs the opportunity of moral rehabilitation. Also, the society of human rights defenders in a similar communiqué, titled: “Stop Death Penalty for Children” started its operation aimed at stopping issuance and execution of death penalty for children less than 18 years of age. According to “Children’s Rights Defenders” site the communiqué, issued on Ordibehesht 6th, 1388 (Iranian Calendar) corresponding April 26, 2009. is as follows:
In the Name of God
All religions and all legal disciplines view children to be exempt from punishments intended for adults. As such, they have provided children an opportunity to comprehend the blessing of life, benefit from education and discipline and learn about best interests and that which is harmful. As such, contemporary international customs and norms views the enforcement of punishments, especially the harshest of punishments namely the death penalty, for individuals under the age of 18, as unacceptable. The laws of many countries as well as the perspectives of many Iranian experts reinforce these customs. When the Holy Qoran invites us to forgive even those who have intentionally committed murder, then without a doubt Islam consents to our taking steps to bestow the blessings of life on those individuals who are under the age of 18 and who have yet to understand life’s riches and vices. Given that the religious decrees issued in this regard can be revised and that the protection of life is logical and also constitutes one of the most important principles of all religions and given the fact that Iran has rightly agreed to international customs through its ratification of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, we strongly demand that death penalty not be issued or implemented in cases where individuals under the age of 18 have committed a crime and we seek the reform of existing laws in this respect.
