Abstract

Right from the beginning of human race, women are facing the society differently as men do. In almost every society on earth men are more privileged than women on account of social facilities and rights of different sorts, because of which women generally lack behind in terms of progress and development. And Pakistan is no different in such problems for women. We witness a variety of opinions from all over the world regarding women development and skill enhancement for them but at the end they don’t bring the desired results. History witnessed up until the advent of the Prophet PBUH the social problems for women were as such in fact had worsened, but after the Prophet PBUH came, he eradicated all those problems in his 23-year prophet hood. So, the tried, tested and successful solution remains the Sunnah of the Prophet PBUH. Be it the educational problem, economical problem or the overall women rights, the Sunnah of Prophet is the solution for them all. But somehow, even after the Prophet PBUH some Muslim societies like Pakistan are facing the very same problems as they were, So, we indicate and find out the problems in implementations and their solutions in this research paper.
