Author(s) Ms. Kainat Ramzan

Abstract The social status and rights of intersex individuals remain an unsettled issue worldwide, and in Pakistan this matter is still evolving. This study critically examines the intersection of social attitudes, Islamic teachings, and Pakistani law in shaping the recognition and treatment of intersex persons. Using a qualitative research method, it explores how Islamic jurisprudence and contemporary practices influence societal perceptions, inclusion, and citizenship rights of intersex individuals. The research highlights challenges arising from the interaction of cultural attitudes, religious beliefs, and human rights discourses, and analyzes how intersex persons are perceived and integrated within Muslim communities in Pakistan. By drawing on Islamic principles of justice, equality, and dignity, the study provides insights into the current status of intersex individuals, identifies gaps in social and legal protections, and suggests pathways for ensuring their rights and inclusion within an Islamic framework. Keywords: Intersex, Social Status, Human Rights, Pakistan
