Abstract

This review paper discusses Muslim parents’ attitudes about their daughters’ desire to pursue higher education in India. The method used in this study is the use of secondary data gathered from publicly accessible platforms, including reliable articles retrieved using online platforms, including Science Direct, Research Gate, Google Scholar, and Scopus. Initially, 186 papers were screened, and 105 met the requirements to move on to the assessment step. For the 72 papers that made it through the final round of examination, the paper maintains strict standards of accuracy, external validity, citation conventions, and review methods. The results of this review article shed light on the many factors that contribute to the educational crises that Muslim girls in India experience and the crucial role that parental attitudes play in determining their daughters’ academic success. The study emphasizes how socioeconomic factors influence Muslim females’ access to higher education. The report finishes with suggestions on dealing with these problems and encouraging females in India’s Muslim population to pursue higher education.
