In this study, the deportation of Ethiopian migrants from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), i.e., the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), United Arab Emirate (UAE), and Kuwait countries, is critically analyzed considering the principle of state sovereignty, human rights law, and Islamic ethics. The research depends on qualitative data on detention and deportation from official websites of the GCC government portals and human rights organizations.From an Islamic perspective, this research addresses the moral questions raised by the deportation practice within related scholarly disciplines of Islamic ethico-legal principles on migration. Accordingly, the higher objectives of Sharia were drawn upon to analyze the deportation practice policies and measure the benefits and harms of the deportation policies and State acts considering the Covid-19 pandemic. The finding demonstrates that the conditions and treatment of migrants at detention centers contradict the core human rights instruments and Islamic moral values.
