}}Aleem Khan (born 1956) is an Indian social activist fighting to eradicate Dowry from the Indian subcontinent hailing from Hyderabad in the Indian state of Telangana.[1][2] He is also known for his Urdu poetry which he frequently recites at Mushairas. He is the founder of Socio-Reform-Society and the author of numerous books on dowry written in Urdu and English.[3][4]

Early life

Mohammed Aleemullah Khan alias Aleem Khan Falaki was born in Hyderabad, India in 1956 to Mohammad Khaleelullah Khan who was also a scholar and often cites him as his inspiration.[2][4] He graduated from Osmania University, Hyderabad and did MA, M.Phil and completed his PhD from Maulana Azad National Urdu University on the topic "Marginalization of woman in Muslim society". He also has a diploma in marriage counseling from Leicester, UK. He ran his own company in Jeddah , Saudi Arabia for more than 3 decades and has now dedicated his full-time to Social-Work.[2]

Anti-dowry campaign

Aleem Khan calls the anti-dowry campaign as the Jihad of this era. According to him, dowry is the root of all evils, and people can get rid of hundreds of other social evils and poverty over time if they give up the dowry system.[2]

He says in the Muslim families "This evil did not exist so much until 2–3 decades ago. It started with the NRIs who went to Gulf mostly in 70s and 80s. Every father of the girl started to search for a well set son-in-law. The competition started and the rich people set the models of huge dowries and dinners. As a result, every boy became greedy which compelled everyone to offer maximum dowry for his daughter or sister by hook or by crook. If the burden of the dowry for the daughters or sisters is removed from the heads of the fathers and brothers, 50% of our men will be free to dedicate themselves for good social, religious or other services. If you see these evils which are increasing day by day like lie, bribery, prostitution etc are for the sake of accumulating money for the dowry. It is a social blackmail. The parents of the daughters are always under pressure due to the fear that the groom, his mother and sisters will continue to raise fingers on their daughters all their life."[2][4]

Socio-Reforms Society

Socio-Reforms-Society was formed in 1992 with the sole purpose to eradicate Dowry. The organization has expanded to recruit a number of other social workers as members. They often give Lectures, Talks in various colleges of the India on the flagitiousness of dowry, with the aim of targeting the youth, along with conducting meetings with various Lawmakers and religious clerics.[2][4][4]
