Chapter One: Introduction
Comparing to the status of women in several other Islamic countries, the women in Saudi Arabia do not have the rights which ought to be theirs. Sunni Islam and tribal customs define women’s rights in Saudi Arabia.
The ancestors of the native of Saudi Arabia were patriarchal, nomadic tribes. In their society separation of women and men and honour are considered central.
Up to this day, the women in Saudi Arabia do not have voting rights. They are forbidden from voting or being elected to political office, however, King Abdullah, the ruler of Saudi Arabia, recently declared that Saudi women will be able to vote and run in the local elections in the year 2015.
King Abdullah also declared that women will also be appointed to the Consultative Assembly.
The women are not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia, and it is the only country in the world that prohibits women from driving vehicles.
According to the survey of The World Economic Forum 2009 Global Gender Gap Report ranked Saudi Arabia 130th out of 134 countries for gender parity.
In the category of political empowerment of women, Saudi Arabia was the only country that scored zero.
The report further described that Saudi Arabia is one of the few Middle Eastern countries to improve from 2008, with very little gains in economic field.
About 17% native women in Saudi Arabia work in several fields. However, they are not allowed to do certain works which the authorities and Islamic laws prohibit, though those works are done by women in several other Islamic countries.
