- 9 years ago
An international conference to launch 'Musawah', a global movement for equality and justice in the Muslim family was held in Malaysia for the first time.
Despite receiving protests from Persatuan Ulama Malaysia, the five-day conference gathered 250 participants from 49 Muslim countries to discuss issues that affect Muslim families around the world.
'Musawah' as a global movement demands that Muslim women are treated as equals in law, family and community.
