Feminism in Pakistan and Emerging Perspectives

Since March 2019, local NGOs in Pakistan are organizing “Aurat March” (Women March) in month of March to raise voice against indigenous feminine issues and violence against women. In hindu-originated society like Pakistan, where Islamic women rights haven’t implemented in its true spirit yet, digesting such a “liberal” act is not easily digestible. Thus different intellectual classes took social media on fire to outdo each other and central topic of cross arguments was slogans raised in the March. Raising slogans is a traditional way of weaker class in society to demonstrate against discrimination and emit emotional suffocation. To study underlying meanings of much debated slogans of Aurat March in Pakistan, discourse analysis is employed which also facilitated to indicate emerging dimension socio-religious debates and opinions towards feminism in Pakistan.

ميراث المرأة في الإسلام وشبهات المستشرقين حوله وتفنيدها

There is no doubt that what Allah has specified for women in their share in inheritance according to the closeness to their deceased, that is the best and right treatment with women which has no parallel in any other system no matter inheritance is less or much in quantity. In Islam women get their share of inheritance as mentioned in the Holy Quran and Sunnah whether she is the mother, the wife, the daughter, the real sisters from mother, the sisters from father, and the daughters of the son and the grandmother. But as the enemies of Islam attacked on the rights of women in Islam and raised suspicions about in general, such as polygamy, women work, their testimony, and ransom, as well as they raised suspicions about the inheritance of women, and claimed that women are oppressed in Islam. Because the male gets double of female, as the French orientalist Gaston Vibet expressed this when he claimed that it is clearly unfair to take half of the men in inheritance He said. "The role of women in Islamic society is very small, and the small number of women has been recognized in all aspects of life. Even in the matter of inheritance, she gets only half the share of men." And if we look at the reason for the revelation of the verse: "And do not wish for what Allah has preferred to some of you, men have a share of what they have acquired, and women have a share of what they have acquired, and ask Allah of His bounty”. Where Umm e Salamah, said O Messenger of Allah men go for jihad and women do not and for us half of the inheritance.” We find that the suspicion of the orientalists in the inheritance of women has its roots since the beginning of revelation, at first sight may appear that Islam is unfair to the girl, making her half the portion of her brother from the legacy of the father, but this is contrary to reality. Actually Islam has assigned the man such tasks and responsibilities which has not assigned to women. I have also elaborated that the Orientalists' suspicions about the inheritance of women are not based on logic or reasoning.

The Rights of Women in Islam and Some Misconceptions: An Analysis from Bangladesh Perspective

Allah (SWT) has created both men and women without subordination of one another. Islam has ensured gender equality and women’s rights in every sphere of their life. Islam has guaranteed rights of men and women in an equal degree and there is no discrimination between men and women. But due to the prevailing socio-cultural norms and practices in Bangladesh sometimes the guarantee of Islam do not get translated into tangible actions. Islam is the religion which liberated Muslim women by ensuring equal rights to them in comparison to their male fellow. There are some misconceptions prevailing in Bangladesh regarding women’s rights in Islam. Sometimes Muslim women themselves falsely knew that they are backward and oppressed by their religion. Some make great mistake in presuming that all conduct and practices of a Muslim are connected to Islam. The prime object of this study is to pick out how rights of women are ensured in Islam. This study concludes with an allusion that women are not subordinate of men and indicate an avenue to identify properly women in the light of Islam.

This research finds that Islam does not deprive the women rather ensuring proper rights, dignity and status but due to lack of proper Islamic knowledge and awareness and sometimes to dominate or neglect some misconceptions prevailing in Bangladesh. To eliminate prevailing misconceptions regarding women rights in Islam proper Islamic knowledge and awareness of the women is essential.

The rights of women in Islam: Examples of Afghanistan and the Islamic Republic of Iran

When we look at the rights and status of women in Islam, it is necessary to carefully look at the different interpretations within the framework of Islamic religious schools (madhhabs), their interpretation of various aspects of Islam with aspects of certain religious teachings and schools. Every ideology and teachings have their own specific value system, as well as the specific standards, guidelines and principles to be observed by their creators, followers and admirers. Thus, Islamic intellectuals and lawyers of 'fiqh' must offer a solution to his followers for their environmental problems and dilemmas to play a positive role in social trends in the contemporary Islamic world. It is common to all religious-legal school of interpretation 'fiqh' and the position of women base their teachings on the interpretation of the holy book the Koran and the sunna. All founders of these directions are considered orthodox and differ only in terms of religious rites, interpretations of the Koran, as well as the logical conclusion of the instrument of thought.

Women's Rights: The Qur'anic Ideals and Contemporary Realities

This article is a study of the rights of women in Islam in comparison with the status of women in the contemporary Muslim world. Men and women in Islam, regardless of their age, social class and education, are equal as citizens and individuals, but not identical, in their rights and responsibilities. It suggests that, in the early age of Islam, women were given full confidence, trust and high responsibilities in leadership, educational guidance and decision-making. But this Islamic empowerment of women bears little relation to the real condition of women in modern Muslim societies. Women suffer the most in the MENA and other conflict-ridden regions from insecurity, domestic abuse, low access to education and medical care.

Muslim women have a potential to play a fundamental role in curbing corruption, social ills, violence and crime in the Muslim world. Therefore, in order to achieve stability and prosperity, the government must ensure a platform for women to participate in decision-making and benefit from the rights they are accorded in Islam.
