| Summary: | The universality of (at least some of) moral norms was being challenged by many thinkers, philosophers, religious reformists, and even the political actors. Assuming that universality of the contemporary human rights as a morally justified as well as consistent system, the main task of this article is to appraise Wittgenstein`s ideas, once with regard to a Kantian contractual reading of human rights and then with an “in using” language approach, of course, not to question Universality of Human rights, rather to support a kind of universality. Finally, we shall explore the potentiality of Wittgenstein‘s thoughts to entertain a rather soft version of universality of human rights by revisiting his Tractatus and proposing the idea of “meaning in use” in his Philosophical Investigations
