Dilemma of divorced women in Pakistan

The drama "Kankar" coming on Hum TV seems to be defying the so-called male superior culture of Pakistan. It is good to see that finally media is showing "Women's stand against Violence". The young lead role played as "Kiran" fully depicts the difficult questions and situations faced by a female who stood up against violence. Again the women need to change. The gossiping women, the free and farigh women need to engage themselves in healthy activities other than the regular chores, so that they don't have time to laze around and wonder what is happening in other people's lives.

The drama boldly shows how the son , the lead male role, tells his father "All my life I have seen you abuse and hit my mother, that's what I've learnt!!!" The so called educated men trying to discipline their sons is a great example of the hypocritical male standards.



From this line many males must have been strengthened into thinking that yes women should tolerate physical violence. Kiran is again shown facing the same dilemma with her second husband, this time she is scared to take a stand and willing to bear it. On the other hand her ex-husband is again beating his second wife, her child snatched and gone to her parents place.



Little do men realize that our prophet Hazrat Muhammad was a ideal personality to be followed. The love, support, patience and tolerance he has displayed for his wives is phenomenal. During the life of his first wife Hazrat Khadija a.s. he did not marry anyone. Martin Ling wrote Hazrat "Muhammad" (s.a.w.w.)from the early sources.
