Özet:

Pakistan is termed as an unsafe place for women according to an international survey, a shocking yet an eye-opening for many, and a thought-provoking observation. Felonies in the shape of honor killing and violence against women, including sexual abuse, physical assaults and harassment are a few disturbing offences, and surprisingly the incidents recorded or taken notice of, are just a drop in the ocean because they are prevalent in our society. In this paper the issues, associated with the patriarchal norms of our society, including violence against women and the fundamental resources of religion and traditions are evaluated so that a proper clarification, for those who commit crimes against women, can be provided considering the true spirit of Islam and to call a spade a spade while considering all the immoral behaviors as assaults committed against women.
