Whenever we talk about women claiming their rightful place in society and state, we can't avoid the question of their educational backwardness. It is often said that uneducated women will never be able to claim their right to the state. However, the state itself is at the root of the present lack of education and backwardness of Muslim women. Leave alone the villages. In how many cities women can move about freely and educate themselves?[4]

Through Begum magazine, Begum Club was formed in 1954. It was the first female club of Bangladesh.[2] Sufia Kamal, Fatima Sadik, and Nilima Ibrahim were on the advisory board. The club was closed in 1970.[2]
