Sitagita Women's News :: India's First Woman Qazi

Syeda Hameed became the first woman in India to solemnise a marriage where three of the witnesses were women and only one was a man! Syeda herself says that the incident shows women want a sweeping change and do not want to be subjugated anymore. The clergy could not do anything much because none of the holy books say that only a male can officiate as a qazi. The protests then became that the women attending the ceremony had not covered their heads properly!


More Protests


More protests followed from the Shia and Sunni sect but Syeda had a ready reply to everything. When will the world allow women and people in general to progress? Shouldn`t we be protesting instead against the inhuman treatment of people around the world rather than a small incident that doesn`t really concern us? We really have a lot of time on our hands, don`t we?
