Muslim Women in Asia

In an interview with Mohammadh, Dr. Nyla Ali Khan goes into detail about Muslim women in Kashmir. Khan believes educated Muslim women should fully participate in professional and political life in Kashmir, and not make a virtue of helplessness and destitution. In Kashmir, Khan observed a serious lack of a feminist discourse in political and activist roles taken on by women in Kashmir. The dominant perception that still exists in Kashmir is that politics and policy making  are associated with the objective, fearless male realist rather than with the archetypal maternal woman who believes in reconciliation. There has also been a serious lack of women’s rights in predominantly Muslim Kashmir and South Asia. Women’s rights and gender issues are secondary to political power.
