Women's rights
In light of the review committee's report, my question is did they publish a more formal report where they said a little more than "it clashes with the Holy Quran's teachings" and said "just rights" should be ensured for men and women in light of the Holy Quran and Sunnah"? My question here is simple, did they give elaborate quotations from the Holy Quran and Hadith that support their ideas? Islam is not some scientology that the information is all obscured and granted only to a few. We have access to all the info, materially anyway, that the ulemas and the muftis have; so, I think it is only fair(since we are talking about the word so much anyway) that we the people ask for clear and unambiguous quotations from the sources that are guiding their beliefs and that are helping them 'decide' which laws need amendment.

The ulema committee has rejected the proposed National Women's Development policy by suggesting drastic changes to it.
Now it seems that it was a premature initiative.
