I am delighted to introduce this important work authored by Mr. Vasu Mohan and Dr. Suraiya Tabassum. The IFES Muslim Women’s Initiative (MWI) reached over 30,000 women and men in eleven districts of Karnataka and Rajasthan and made a significant contribution to the enhancement of gender equality. This book captures lessons from this important program and interviews with some of the brave women who are torch bearers of change. I have witnessed many projects and programs to support women. MWI is unique in that it draws from the Holy Qur’an and the Indian Constitution to empower women. This thoughtful combination of the sacred and the secular to empower women has had a transformative effect in the whole community. I participated in this program in many places in Rajasthan such as Jaipur, Jodhpur, Ajmer, Tonk, and Bhilwara and witnessed the impact of MWI on the community. One important thing I observed was that this program focused on Muslim women and also included men, youth and children. The effect of this program has spread exponentially beyond the participants. They have become catalytic agents of change. Even those who initially opposed the program, ultimately realized the truth and began supporting it. With all my confidence, I can say that such a success was achieved due to the guidance of Mr. Vasu Mohan and supervision of Dr. Suraiya Tabassum. They deserve my best compliments. I wish the authors, MWI participants and readers the best in their endeavors to promote equality. May almighty God bless them with great success! K.D. Khan Rajasthan Administrative Service Officer (Retired) Nazim, Khwaja Gharibnawaz Dargah, Ajmer (Retired) Director, Arabic and Persian Research Institute, Government of Rajasthan, Ajmer (Retired) Foreword | iii FOREWORD Assalamu Alaikkum! It is my pleasure to write a foreword to Sehr: A New Dawn Breaks, written by Vasu Mohan and Dr. Suraiya Tabassum and published by IFES. First, I congratulate Dr. Suraiya Tabassum and the IFES team for implementing this unique and successful program. The Muslim Women’s Initiative has been a great source of encouragement and empowerment of Muslim women and men. I was privileged to be involved with the program since its inception and have traveled to several locations to give my input as a senior lawyer specializing in family law. Women who came to the MWI workshops first came without any knowledge. When they got some knowledge they gained confidence. When they gained confidence they wanted to access and assert their rights. They helped each other access these rights through the groups that MWI formed. MWI always saw these women as powerful agents of change. Not victims of oppression. Through MWI they became powerful. Their power came from Justice, the Rule of Law, the Constitution of India, the Holy Qur’an and their mutual support for each other. This was the secret of their success. Through this book, I hope the message of MWI spreads all over India and all over the world. Attorney Neelofar Akhtar Special Invitee, Muslim Personal Law Board of India Senior Advocate, Bombay High Court iv | Acknowledgements ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors thank their families and friends for their encouragement and support and their IFES colleagues for their wise counsel and participation in the production of this book.

Five of her close family members were murdered, including her daughter. Afsara’s two remaining children survived but suffered serious burn injuries. Afsara filed a complaint with the police but believes that the police released those that she identified, along with many others.

  • Narendra Modi: Architect of Gujarat Genocide 2002
    Modi: Architect of Gujarat Genocide. Targetting of Women May 01, 2002. The Milli Gazette. Syed Ubaidur Rahman. Were sexual crimes in Gujarat planned? Ahmedabad: Women have been the main target of the rioters in Gujarat. After visiting the state for more than a week and meeting hundreds of people in different camps spread over the four most affected districts of the state including Panchmahal, (under which Godhra comes) Baroda, Anand and Ahmadabad, I have reached the conclusion that women were consciously and specially targeted by the rioters who were being controlled by the VHP and Bajrang Dal criminals besides the members of the RSS and the BJP. The way the Hindu mobs acted while brutally dishonouring Muslim women will put the Serbs in Bosnia and Kosovo to shame. Wherever there were killings, there were large scale rapes of Muslim women irrespective of age differences. There are incidents when all this was done while their fathers, brothers and husbands were made to witness this brutality after being made captives. And at times all this was done inside the village mosques. Fatima Bibi Md Yaqub Sheikh whose family lost 19 members including her sisters and brothers says that whatever they did could have been justified, except the way they raped women. She says that when her family tried to flee Naroda Patia, the area where 90 people were burnt alive they all requested the police to save them, but police instead of doing anything for their safety asked them to surrender themselves to the mob. She says that her sister and her niece both were repeatedly raped by the mob.

But in the performing arts, especially acting, women artists were found in large numbers in this period. At first they acted on the stage in theatre groups. Later, with the coming of cinema, they began to act for the screen. Cinema gave them a channel for expressing their acting talent as no other medium had before. Apart from acting, some of them even began to direct films at this early stage in the history of Indian cinema. Thus, acting and film direction was not an exclusive arena of men where women were mostly subjects. It was an arena where women became the creators of this art form and they commanded a lot of fame, glory and money in this field. In this module, we will study about some of these women.

Eight of these essays were published (or republished) as chapters within my monograph Bombay Before Bollywood: Film City Fantasies, which aimed to outline the contours of an alternative history of twentieth-century Bombay cinema. The ninth, which complements these, was published in an annual reader. This project eschews the conventional focus on India’s more respectable genres, the so-called ‘socials’ and ‘mythologicals’, and foregrounds instead the ‘magic and fighting films’ – the fantasy and stunt genres – of the B- and C-circuits in the decades before and immediately after India’s independence.
