Downloads
Abstract
Women's right under the Muslim personal law is a topic of controversy among women, the women have been fighting for their rights and gender equality within society. The Muslim personal laws are both positive and negative towards women and their rights, the security women get after they dissolve the marriage as compared to that of men could be considered as an act of protection of women under the law which is recognized under the Muslim personal laws and not in the other personal laws. As it is the protection the personal laws available are discriminating be it due to the moral or legal aspects but the women in the society are oppressed especially over the rights of inheritance, maintenance, and divorce. The research paper has dealt with the introduction and background of the Muslim personal law and has observed the changes Uniform Civil Code would have brought to the Muslim Personal laws if it is interpreted and the gradual change in the rights of the women under the laws.
