2/n Ambedkar writes in beginning of Chapter X, pp 215, that the Indian Muslim society is no different when it comes to social evil.
3/n Ambedkar mentions on page 220, that Muslims have all evils of “Hindus” & even something more.
4/n Ambedkar writes following wrt to “Caste System in Islam”:
“Everybody infers that Islam must be free from slavery and caste. Regarding slavery nothing needs to be said. It stands abolished now by law. But while it existed, much of its support was derived from Islam..”
5/nAmbedkar further writes: “ But if slavery has gone, caste among Musalmans has remained. “

More details in snippets, where you can read how “Caste based discrimination exist in Islamic world” as per Ambedkar.

“Azral” are untouchables in Islam.
6/n Ambedkar then talks about the system of untouchability in Muslims. After giving account of “evil Untouchability” in Panchayat system of Bengal he asserts:

“But the facts for Bengal are enough to show that the Mahomedans observe not only caste but also untouchability.”
7/n Now that I’ve already showed you @_sabanaqvi ji what Ambedkar has mentioned about “Untouchability” &”Caste System” among Indian Muslims, let me talk about other social evils. Keep reading.
