Our Mission – MALDIVES PANTI JAMIYYA
We will respond to verbal, physical, psychological and other forms of attack against women through parceling them panties (JANGIYA or FODI FUREYNI) that undermine women’s place and role in society. However, we work within a ‘religious’ context as we are a Muslim community and we are practicing Muslims (cos no Maldivian is non Muslim). Our goal is not to negate Quran, Hadith or Islamic principles, but to find women’s rightful place in society by tackling Quran and Hadiths in which they can flourish and realize their true potential. We will be fighting against women covering which is disgusting and we want women’s right to marry other women. We will fight for these rights and if quran or hadith prohibits this, just leave it..what the hell. We emphasize the fact that many feminists are Muslim Women. Working for women’s rights does not mean that one is not a pious and good Muslim.
