CIVIL PETITIONS NO. 154 AND 155 OF 2019
The Court made a comparative analysis of the old European and American concepts with the classic Islamic law as to rights of a married woman in her owned property, and observed: “A chasm existed between a woman’s position in Islam to that which prevailed till a century ago in Europe and America where upon marriage a wife stood deprived of her property, which became that of her husband to do with it as he pleased. However, in the Muslim world the situation was altogether different and this has been the position since over fourteen hundred years…..In Islamic societies Muslim ladies not only retained their properties but also their identities after marriage.”
