Begum Roquia Sakhawat Hussain, known as Begum Rokeya, was an inspiring figure who significantly contributed to the struggle for women's liberation from social constraints. Through her literary works, primarily in Bengali, she employed humor, irony, and satire to highlight the injustices faced by Bengali-speaking Muslim women. Rokeya courageously criticized oppressive social customs based on a distorted version of Islam, advocating for women's emancipation through breaking the gender division of labor and equal access to education.
Sultana's Dream first appeared in 1905, ten years before the American feminist and novelist, Charlotte P. Gilman, published her feminist utopia Herland. Sultana's Dream is an appealing story of reversed purdah - the seclusion of women - in Ladyland, where peace-loving women overpower aggressive men through the power of their brains.
