Khatijun Nissa Siraj
Khatijun Nissa Siraj (born 1925) is a Singaporean women's rights activist and the co-founder of the Young Women's Muslim Association (PPIS) and the Muslim Women's Welfare Council. In response to an epidemic within the Singaporean Muslim community of women being abandoned by their husbands through inexpensive, informal divorces, Siraj and the PPIS successfully pressed for the formation of a Syariah Court. Siraj was the first case worker for the court, which had authority over marriages and divorces. In addition to her work with the PPIS, Siraj worked with a number of other organizations that worked to improve women's welfare.
==Early life==
Khatijun Nissa Siraj was born in 1925, the daughter of a wealthy businessman of Indian descent. Before becoming an activist, Siraj spent her time as a volunteer at the St. Andrew's Mission Hospital and as a member of the management committees of the Singapore Children's Society and the Family Planning Association. Siraj was often the only Muslim woman on the committees that she sat on, which led her to fear that there was no one looking out for the interests of Muslim women.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.singaporememory.sg/contents/SMA-9c08353c-921d-47d8-9b4b-e1667d8f0a21 )〕
