Pakistani Women Fiction Writers in the Context of Feminism

Abstract

Feminism as an intellectual movement is the religion of the twentieth century when the women of the West first raised the banner of rebellion against male domination and restrictions. The artificial distinction between men and women in society was challenged. And the woman who was confined to the sanctuary and the sanctuary was given the right to work alongside the man in the open air. How could Urdu fiction writers ignore such a big change of mind, so the individual, domestic, economic, and psychological aspects of women and sexual issues were also included? In the same vein, 21st-century Pakistani women Urdu fiction writers have also made women and women's issues the subject. These fiction writers include Neelam Ahmed Bashir, Tahira Iqbal, Nelo Fur Iqbal, Tahira Iqbal, Neelam Ahmed Bashir, Shahnaz Shoro, Fehmida Riaz, Bushra Ijaz, Zahida Hina, Atiya Syed, Salma Awan, Seema Piroz, Nelo Fur, Azra Abbas, and other women have dealt with this collective issue of global level in an effective manner under the diverse themes of their fiction. This paper is a critical review of these styles and ideas.
