CII Calls 'Gender Equality', an Ambiguous and Un-Islamic Term
In its review of laws report for 2008, which is yet to be presented to the government, the Dawn quoted the CII as saying that instead of using 'ambiguous' terms, Islamic principles of equity and justice should be implemented in letter and spirit in gender-related matters.
The council, which had opposed the constitution of the NCSW, further recommended that the commission's recommendations in Section 7(b) of the ordinance should be "in consonance with established Islamic laws".
The council declared that the repeated use of term 'gender equality' as an ultimate target by the commission was 'impractical thinking'.
It explained that the concept of 'gender equality' was impracticable because of 'distinct differences' in anatomy and physical and mental capabilities. The CII described the term as 'absurd and un-Islamic'.
The council further stated that the composition of the NCSW was objectionable under Section 3 of the law. It recommended that women members of the commission should have knowledge of Islamic teachings.
