Shariah and Eunichs: An Historical Analysis
تلخیص
Khwaja siras, for which several terms are used such as transgender, transsexual, and transvestite in English writings and verily other names nationally and internationally, insinuates the overall public who do not fall in one of the classes of the developed sex identities: male or female. This is the group of the people who are reported to act, feel, think or seem different and noted to have many other versatile characters from the rest part of the society. To their regret being oppressed naturally, they are also considered inferior, for the reasons unknown, by the so called literate society. Though their rights are reported to have been reserved in the era of khulfa-e-rashideen and later in Mughal regime, yet have always been placed in a category well below the normal part of the general public for the reasons mysterious to the nature. Despite all the possible free workspace, there has been lack of any comprehensive research about the behavior of this important but ignored part of the human cluster in Pakistan specially Balochistan. The study sheds light and have a deeper insight into the socio-economic status as well as brief introductory and historical perspective of the khwaja siras in the light of Islamic and western literature. Furthermore, it insists on different possible ways to involve this very sensitive and special group of the society in an optimistic and exclusive sphere of life
