Abstract
The question of women’s rights and obligations, is the most controversial and most complex among all social problems. Many Muslim women successfully have no rights, or recourse, to protect themselves physically, sexually, financially, or otherwise from abuse, especially by husbands. Even in countries where laws protect women, local social traditions can also radically curtail their rights. This paper throws light on the social status of Muslim women in pre - Islamic and post Islamic era. After that the paper focuses on the Indian social, legal and religious status of Muslim women and analyses differences of opinion among individual and institutions. Muslims occupy an important position in Indian society. They are the principal minority of this country. According to 2011 census, Muslims constituted 13.4% of India's total population with majority in Lakshadweep and Jammu and Kashmir. Women empowerment is a contemporary issue for developing countries like India. It is assumed that the development of Muslim society has sustained a setback due to various factors of which the 'Invisible' role and 'Marginal' social position of women in dynamics of Muslim society is very important. The rates of women empowerment are in a vulnerable condition within the largest Muslim minority. Lack of social opportunities for Muslim women is a crucial issue needing urgent Action. This paper attempts to present theoretical analysis of position of women in Islam as advocated by Quran and Hadith and condition of Muslim women in India in comparison to other countries like Turkey, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan. It explores into the socio-economic profile of Muslim women in India in the light of personal law and studies the constitutional validity of personal law
