This paper examines socio-cultural practices that deter women from claiming their rights to inherit family property although it is given to them by their religion and is upheld by law. The first section of the research is a brief discussion of research setting and methods. The second section analysis of the data depicts discursive practices such as, patriarchal socialization, decision-making, and customs. It particularly looks at dowry as a custom and as a tool for maintaining women’s subordination. The third section examines the legal hindrances women face to get their inheritance. Finally, this paper presents a brief appraisal of patriarchy as it works for the perpetuation of women’s subordination.
