You spell out “Muslim Woman” and the image flashing across your imagination is that of a lady in a veil, living sheepishly behind the four walls of her house, busy performing the domestic chores...oblivious of the world outside. And this sets your mind at work, springing one query after the other. Does a Muslim woman get a better or worse treatment than her counterpart in other religions? What is the status of a women in the Muslim community?... So on and so forth.
Through our blog, we will try to project the ‘real-self’ of the person behind the veil, along with the shrieking silence that the male-dominated society has failed to listen to - in an impartial yet forthright manner. You can also look forward to coming across some startling revelations, hitherto disguised as the myth.
We just do not claim that our angle of looking at a sensitive issue is the one and only possible angle to look at things in an objective manner. At best, it can give you an insight into this much-talked-about issue of our times. The more we hear from you, the better would go individual postings. Nonetheless, what kind of a debate it will be if it does not accommodate all shades of views? We cannot think of roses without thorns. Can you?
