Muslim women in Mumbai

Muslim women are fighting for access to the popular shrine in Mumbai

The ban was imposed in 2012 - the trust said it was a "sin" to allow women

to touch the tombs of male saints 

The Supreme court in August said the ban "violated the constitution"

and was discriminatory towards women.

"We are grateful the courts are standing by us in our fight against the patriarchal

attitudes of men running religious shrines,"

Zakia Soman of the rights group Bharatiya Muslim Mahila Andolan (BMMA)

which has challenged the ban on women entering the 15th Century shrine  ::yawn::

The trust that runs Mumbai's Haji Ali mosque told the Supreme Court:

it will rescind a ban on women entering the shrine as ordered by the high court. .
