Hello Friends!!!

Most of us know the valuable contribution of Savitribai Phule towards the education of girls but few know the woman who made the goal of Savitribai possible. She was none other than Fatima Sheikh, and is widely recognised as the first woman Muslim teacher in India. She not only taught in the school but also worked with Savitribai Phule to establish the first school for girls at her own house. Besides, the unity of Dalits and Muslims has been emphasized by these two great women of Maharashtra who opened the doors for women empowerment.
According to archives from the era, it was Usman Sheikh (inspired by the Phules) who encouraged his sister not just to educate herself but also spread its gospel to all members of the society. Despite the challenges before Fatima, she maintained her pursuit of approaching every household in her neighbourhood and community, asking families and encouraging them to give their girls a shot at a decent education, irrespective of faith. Several writings say that, Fatima Sheikh used to spent hours counseling parents who did not wish to send their girls to schools. Therefore, today, every educated Indian woman owes a debt of gratitude to Savitribai Phule and Fatima Sheikh.
Fatima Sheikh is now widely regarded as the first Muslim woman teacher of the 19th century India and it is a badge which Indian Muslim community wears with pride. Therefore we all need to remember the struggle, contribution and sacrifice of Fatima Sheikh and she is a woman to be given a Big salute in History.
