    Women’s inheritance rights enshrined in Sharia, Supreme Court holds

    The Supreme Court of Pakistan ruled that women's inheritance rights under Sharia law are protected and cannot be denied through private arrangements or social pressure, overturning a lower court's decision in a 71-year-old family dispute. The court declared Mutation No. 75 illegal, void, and ineffective against female heirs' rights, emphasizing that inheritance is a vested legal right devolving immediately upon death.
