Book Details:
In every age, there are individuals whose quiet resolve reshapes the destiny of many. Justice Syed Karamat Husain, a crusader of female education and a distinguished jurist left an enduring legacy that continues to inspire and empower generations. At a time when female education was viewed with hesitation, even resistance, he perceived it as a moral imperative. He understood that the advancement of society was inseparable from the empowerment of its women. His conviction found concrete expression in 1895, 1906 and 1912, when his unwavering commitment to this cause inspired three major educational institutions for women in UP: Allahabad, Aligarh and Lucknow, with the last one being named after him as a testament to his dedication to feminism and education. Karamat Husain Muslim Girls’ P.G. College, Lucknow, stands as a lasting tribute to the pioneering efforts of Justice Syed Karamat Husain in promoting women’s education.
The book ‘Discovering Justice Syed Karamat Husain’ is offered in remembrance of a man who lived much of his life in quiet solitude but whose vision altered the destinies of countless others. He devoted his intellect and authority to a cause few men of his time were willing to champion, the education of women. From an early age, Justice Syed Karamat Husain displayed a forward-thinking intellect, recognizing that no community could thrive or secure its place in society without educating its women.
