THEY CALLED ME WHORE, BUT MY NAME IS WOMEN.”
ABSTRACT
“Educate a man, you educate a person. Educate a woman and you educate a family. Educate a family and you educate the Ummah.”
Women have generally been subjected to continuous oppression and unending suppression, resulting in their subordination throughout the history irrespective of socio-economic, demographic and religious differences. The Men have always been superior in all the historical era. The Indian idea of adequate female behaviour can be traced to Manu in 200 BC: “by a young girl, by a young woman, or even by an aged one, nothing must be done independent, even in her own house.”
The modern age is the age of transformation in the status of women all over the world. Women struggled towards new freedom and identities. Human race has witnessed Muslim women, particularly, in the Arab World playing most liberalise role in the history of human civilization. Their role in Egypt, Tunisia, Liberia and in Iraq in fighting against American imperialism has been historic and defining. In Indian sub-continent too Muslim women have emerged as rulers, leaders, writers and thinkers particularly in Pakistan and Bangladesh. Only in India they could not come into major socio-political roles due to various socio- political conditions of the country.
The status of Muslim women in India has been under great change over past few
