Abstract

Women are an integral part of society. There have been wonderful changes around the world in recent years. Women can play a viable part in the development and economy of any country. The traditional rather orthodox men have issues with women going outside their domestic sphere. In the era of economic empowerment, it is very difficult to make ends meet. Without the contribution of women at par with men, it is very difficult for the breadwinner to drag the entire familial baggage over his shoulders singularly. In order to study this, a group of 60 respondents sampled through snowball sampling was gathered for structured interview in Rawalpindi. Keeping in view the modern ICT and the newly introduced mode of learning, virtual Quran teaching through an institute or privately serves as a good source of living. Islam is a modern religion that has served to enlighten the masses stuck in ignorance. It allows for equitable women rights. Virtual Quran teaching is one such entrepreneurial skill gauged by women recently to earn a sustainable and revered livelihood that serves in their alleviated social status.
