Jaipur: Islam does not restrict women from progress, nor education or business. Islam just expects them to do all these things while remaining within the Islamic parameters, said Engineer Muhammad Salim, Rajasthan state president of Jamaat Islami. He was addressing a conference on “Be protector of women’s dignity” here last week.
“The wealth earned by women is theirs. They are owner of moveable or immovable property or wealth that they inherit,” Er Salim further said.
The most important responsibility that Almighty has bestowed upon women is to bring up new generation in the best way to make them useful for the society, he said. The program, part of Jamaat’s women awareness campaign (16-30 May) in the state, was organized at Muslim Musafirkhan in Rajasthan’s capital on May 22 by the Jaipur women wing of Jamaat-e-Islami Hind.
Addressing the women, Fatima Tanveer, secretary, Ahmedabad women wing of Jamaat, highlighted the plight of women in today’s society. “Our society has deteriorated to the level that women is seen not more than a sex item, and her body and beauty is used to earn money,” she said and called upon women to come up to save themselves from this plight.
