The British presence in India brought about significant changes in the lives of Muslims, particularly in their educational system. Most Indian Muslims viewed the new British educational system as contradictory to their religious and cultural beliefs and paid little attention to it. The necessity of modern education for Muslim women also emerged as a key issue during this period, garnering both support and opposition among reformists. Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, a pioneer of Muslim reformism in India, opposed modern education for women. However, concurrently, some Muslim reformists emphasized the importance of educating women, believing that it could improve family and societal conditions. Advocates of women's education took various steps to facilitate their learning, including publishing journals and writing novels highlighting the necessity of educating women. As a result of these efforts, the right to education for Muslim women was partially recognized, leading to the establishment of the Aligarh Muslim Women's College, the first significant educational institution for Muslim women.
