Do Women Have Rights ?





Women rights in Pakistan is a question raised in the west . It is believed that women has no rights or privileges in the male dominated society of Pakistan .
         Before discussing women have rights in Pakistani society or not , first understand Pakistan society. Pakistan is an Islamic state, where people not only take pride in strictly to the Islamic values but are ready to sacrifice their loved belongings for the Flory and sanctity of Islam . Islam has accorded a social position to women .Islam doesn't impose any restrictions that may hamper the social growth and development of the women . A women is equally important member of society . The women plays a vital role in building a society and stronger foundation . Pakistan is the first country in the Muslim world that has elected  a women as its Prime Minister twice


                          

                                        However the Pakistani society usually adopts a hostile attitude toward the women. their development in society is hindered due to many factors. Particularly the rural women has the sustain, sometime , unbearable dominance by the other sections of society .
                                                                        Numerically the women in Pakistan are almost equal to men. They are equal in potential as the men. The Pakistani women live in the most diversified location of the tribal , feudal or urban environments. she can be a highly qualified and self confident professional or a different peasant tailing along with her-folk. 
                                          Most of women in rural areas have to bear double burden of domestic and outside work . they are the first to rise and last to bed . They lit the fire to prepare breakfast ,wash utensils and clean the house before setting out on their outside work. when every member has ridden the bed after completing day's work , they are engaged in working . Although the conditions of women in urban areas better that those of the rural women but they our men have on respect for women whether they encounter on the roads bus stand , parks etc now a days raping of women makes the headlines in every newspapers. All these facts have made the women weak ; they cant do any thing to stop this . And the old traditions and religious restraints have hindered the independent and free movement of the women .
