I mean the links I provided detail what Human rights are. Just because some places choose not to implement them doesn't mean they don't exist.
Also Human Rights can be traced back much further than Christianity, arguably 725 BC or older: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_human_rights
You just proved certain countries have laws regarding human rights. That is all. Saying that a death row inmate should not face execution because it is a criminal's right to human life is an opinion. There is no rational basis for such reverence.
Look, whether you choose to believe in the existence of Human Rights or not is irrelevant to the conversation at hand. Qatar are not arguing over whether Human Rights exist, they are stating they don't want to conform to them as part of this EU law.
