He earned his [[Bachelor of Science in Agriculture|bachelor of agriculture]] degree from England and was a member of [[Royal Agricultural Society of England]]. He married Rokeya after the death of his first wife. As a liberal, he encouraged Rokeya to continue learning Bengali and English. He also encouraged her to write, and on his advice, she adopted Bengali as the principal language for her literary works.{{Citation needed|date=April 2019}} Rokeya wrote ''[[Sultana's Dream]]'' (1908) before her husband died in 1909. In ''Sultana's Dream'', Rokeya wrote reversing the roles of men and women in which women were the dominant sex and the men were subordinate and confined to the mandana (the male equivalent of the zenana). She also depicts an alternative, feminist vision of science, in which inventions such as [[solar ovens]], [[flying cars]], and [[Air well (condenser)|cloud condensers]] are used to benefit the whole of society.&lt;ref name="Lewton">{{cite web |last1=Lewton |first1=Thomas |title=Feminist Visions of Science and Utopia in Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain's 'Sultana's Dream' |url=https://www.ladyscience.com/features/feminist-visions-science-fiction-utopia-rokeya-hossain |website=Lady Science |date=2019 |access-date=23 August 2019 |archive-date=1 March 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230301221911/https://www.ladyscience.com/features/feminist-visions-science-fiction-utopia-rokeya-hossain |url-status=dead }}&lt;/ref>&lt;ref name="Sultana">{{cite book |last1=Hossain |first1=Rokeya Sakhawat |title=Sultana's Dream |date=1905 |publisher=The Indian Ladies' Magazine |location=Madras |url=http://digital.library.upenn.edu/women/sultana/dream/dream.html |access-date=23 August 2019 |archive-date=16 April 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160416132042/http://digital.library.upenn.edu/women/sultana/dream/dream.html |url-status=live }}&lt;/ref> It is regarded as a notable and influential satire.

She advocated reform, particularly for women, and believed that parochialism and excessive conservatism were principally responsible for the relatively slow development of Muslims in [[British India]]. Anjuman-e-Khawateen-e-Islam organised events for social reforms based on the original teachings of Islam that, according to her, were lost. {{citation needed|date=September 2020}} === Literary style === Rokeya wrote in a number of genres: short stories, poems, essays, novels and satirical writings. She developed a distinctive literary style, characterised by creativity, logic and a wry sense of humour. She started writing in the ''[[Nabanoor]]'' from about 1903, under the name of Mrs R S Hossain. However, there is an opinion that her first published writing ''Pipasa'' appeared in the ''Nabaprabha'' in 1902. Her writings called upon women to protest against injustices and break the social barriers that discriminated against them.&lt;ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.thedailystar.net/opinion/tribute/rokeyas-wake-call-women-1327171|title=Rokeya's wake-up call to women|date=9 December 2016|access-date=31 July 2017|archive-date=1 February 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230201192442/https://www.thedailystar.net/opinion/tribute/rokeyas-wake-call-women-1327171|url-status=live}}&lt;/ref> == Novels written by Begum Rokeya == {{Quote box |align=right| quote=Whenever any woman tries to raise her head, weapons in the form of religions or holy scriptures strike her head. … Men propagate those scriptures as God's commandments to subdue us in darkness. … Those scriptures are nothing but systems constructed by men.
