Hope that Pent A British Muslimat
Shelina Zahra Janmoha med, a British Muslim, harbored hope. Later, Muslim women in Britain in particular is no longer seen as confidence or they wear the hijab, but people appreciate the achievements that they carved. Shelina hope stereotypes and skewed image of Muslim women faded.
He considers, very good looking Muslim women as an integral part of society and country. Not because the label Muslimahnya, but more than that because the talent and contributions that can be given.
Like other women, Muslim women are also close to the everyday issues, like education, employment, health, and family.
He filed an example, Barones Sayeeda Warsi, a Muslim who became one of the Conservative Party chairman and now serves as minister in the cabinet of Prime Minister David Cameron. Last month, he appeared before the media along with two women MPs to argue with the opposition. He respected. However, in reality, Muslim women in general have to face additional barriers compared to other women. Check it, said Shelina, what happens on the job market. Based on reports the UK Equalities and Human Rights Commission 2010, only 24 percent of Muslim women in Britain are working. This fact is then tickled the people who do not know the truth about Islam and Muslims to immediately catapult comment. They said, not many Muslim women find work related to the pressures faced by their families. One of them, they are required to veil or stay home. |
This view was refuted by a report released by The Young Foundation in 2008. The institute is concluded, if the trace on the second generation Muslim women in Britain, the view that banning Muslim families do not work right. Most of them get support from her family to work.
According to The Young Foundation, the obstacles facing Muslim women together with women in general barriers, such as gender discrimination. "However, British Muslim women should get away from other obstacles, that is discrimination because of conviction and his clothes," says Shelina as quoted by Middle East Online, recently.
In fact, the Muslim community has a generation of women as politicians, community leaders, businessmen and writers. With this reality too, Muslim women must now continue to fight to cut down all the barriers, and bore the image, story, and a new culture. At least, Shelina also can be one example.
He made a blog, Spirit 21, five years ago, to voice about British Muslim women are rarely heard. Apparently, this blog success. BBC even suggested lina's blog She became one of the most influential Muslim blogs. National and international media hunt to get the interview.
As if Shelina be the mouthpiece of his people. The award was pinned to her since been named as one of the 100 most influential British Muslim. Her book, Love in a Headscarf, which tells the veiled Muslim women looking for potential husbands translated into several languages.
Another figure who also loaded achievement is Jobeda Ali. She organized Cineforum that accommodate the film around the world depicting Muslim women. There are also pages that have Shaista Gohir Big Sister. This page presents the Muslim success that can be used as a model for other Muslim women.
Sarah Joseph, a convert to Islam, made the first Muslim lifestyle magazine that was so visible luxury. And, Roohi Hasan, a television news editor and a member of the team that designed the Channel 5 news, one of the most popular news program in the UK.
Meanwhile, Maleiha Malik is a professor of law at the prestigious Kings College London. He focuses on discrimination law, protection of minorities, and also a feminist. "With all this, later vanished stereotypes of Muslim women and Muslim-owned property talent will be recognized," says Shelina.
