: Ideology of Pakistan:
"No Nation can rise to the height of glory unless your women are side by side with you.We are victims of evil customs.It is a crime against humanity that our women are shut up within the four walls of the houses as prisoners.There is no sanction anywhere for the deplorable condition in which our women have to live". {Quaid_e_Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah}
: Reality of Pakistan:
Pakistan was made only for the powerful and for the men.Women have no rights and bound to follow the orders of men.Women is considered the weakest part of the society.So,what is the status of women in Pakistan?" Nothing at all"
Pakistan,is a Muslim country and who follows the true preaching of Islam.But,indeed we are not apply such rules and regulations for women,because,we considered that women is made for only household and working within the four walls of their house.No life of women in male dominated society.If,any women is speaking for their rights they face several consequences like harassment,honor killing etc.
There is no law,no religion,who forbid the women rights.Islam,who itself giving the rights of women at every social aspect of life,whether it is Spouse,Education,Property,and even Divorce.Islam,who teaches the lesson of Equality,Justice.Pakistan,who came into existence in the name of Islam,but where is the Islam gone when we talk about gender equality.
Women is also part of the society who have same rights like men.Like Quran said:"Men and Women have the same spirit,there is no superiority in the spiritual sense between men and women". {Verse 4:1}
Women plays a vital role in society development.According to IMF Study:using empirical data and research statistics"determines that women's economic empowerment is key to growth"and could boost Pakistan's GDP by 30%. In fact,Pakistan's Constitution,as per Article 25(2),is emphatic about giving rights to women.Unfortunately,state is failed to protect their rights.
Empowering women with better education,equal opportunities provide,and respecting their rights which transforming the country in best way.
