(Malala book)
Chapter 7 tells the story of the mufti (Islamic scholar) who tried to close their school. He came to the school and insisted to the woman who owned the building that the school was shameful because it taught girls, who should be in purdah (i.e. kept out of sight of men). The owner and her son warned Malala's father that the mufti was trying to close them down. The compromise was that Ziauddin would build a new, private gate through which the girls would enter the school. This way, men wouldn’t see women entering the school.
