Women’s rights in Islam.

The problems of women in general and those of Muslim women in particular are of great importance today. These problems are of various natures – legal, religious, economic, educational, cultural, historical and socio-political. Through this paper an effort is made to highlight the emerging trend of mobilization and growing awareness of Muslim women about the misuse of Islamic rights and to some extent the deviated interpretation and practices of Islamic principles. Also, an effort is made to capture the emergence of new efforts amongst Muslim women both at individual and organizational levels.
