“The international community’s engagement with the Taliban has emboldened them to further suppress women.”
Yes. The jihad and Sharia are advancing worldwide because of the weakness and pusillanimity of the West, and of its refusal to do anything that might appear “Islamophobic.”
“Taliban Enforces Harsh New Rules on Afghan Women, Forbids Looking At Unfamiliar Men, Speaking Loudly At Home, Reading Koran In Public,” Sahara Reporters, August 23, 2024:
The Taliban government in Afghanistan has introduced a controversial new policy aimed at further restricting the freedoms of women.
Under the latest decree, Afghan women are prohibited from speaking loudly inside their homes to prevent their voices from being heard outside.
The measure, which expands upon previous restrictions, also includes a ban on women looking at men and speaking loudly in public.
The Telegraph reports that the Taliban has introduced stringent new rules for Afghan citizens in a 114-page document. Among the new orders, adult women are prohibited from making eye contact with unfamiliar men.
Women must also cover their faces to prevent temptation and avoid speaking in the presence of men who are not relatives or husbands.
However, women are instructed to keep their voices low inside their homes to avoid being heard outside.
Zainab, a former civil servant in Kabul, told The Telegraph, “The international community’s engagement with the Taliban has emboldened them to further suppress women.”
She criticised the regime’s disregard for women’s existence, noting the new regulations’ severe restrictions.
The rules mandate that women must cover their entire bodies in public, with their faces and voices concealed from men if they leave their homes. They are also barred from singing or reading the Koran publicly, and their clothing must not be thin, tight, or short.
Taxi drivers are instructed not to transport women without a hijab or an adult male guardian, and mixing genders or playing music in vehicles is prohibited. Violations of these rules will result in arrest and imprisonment.
Men are also restricted by these rules, which include bans on looking at women’s faces in public, wearing tight or short clothing, and trimming or shaving their beards….

One thing those muslimahs are lucky about: being banned from reading the qur’an ?
OLD GUY says
Yep Women’s liberation at its finest, brought to you by ISLAM. And I don’t hear any screaming from the women lib. groups. WHY?
somehistory says
One may question if any of these women came to the States, would they insist that the ugly scarf was necessary for their ‘faith’?
In the mobs ‘protesting’….more like demanding….regarding gaza, there are many females wearing the scarves, forcing the pudgy face and demanding that Israel commit suicide.
Would these afghan females feel the same way if they came here? Or would they throw off the shackles and let the air touch their hair and skin?
They must smell bad in the heat. Do they even have powder, soap and fresh water? Do they have access to Vitamin D tablets?

As we’ve seen in the West, they would, b’cos once they come here, they then feel secure only in their identity group – namely ethnic Afghans (or Pakis, or Somalis, or Bangladeshis, or Algerians, or Palestinians, or whatever other muslim group one can think of). Which is why the West would, if it were remotely sane, have insisted that they move to nearby muslim countries. In this case, a country like Tajikistan or Kazakhstan

All the different face covering Muslim women wear is not mentioned anywhere in the Quran, I do believe it is probably just a man imposing his will.
Christine Horsburgh says
Apparently the Quoran says” woman should dress modestly” nothing about being fully covered. It’s the men who force it on them
Walter Sieruk says
The Taliban have banned women from the university because the Islam is a religion of oppressive misogyny and their regime in Afghanistan is based on Islam with its Sharia.
The Taliban want the women trapped in Afghanistan to under the darkness tyranny and oppression of Sharia. Therefore, they ban them from receiving an education.
As Thomas Jefferson had, so wisely, declared “Enlighten the people, generally, and tyranny and oppression of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day.”
Walter Sieruk says
Some time back a Taliban spokesman answered a question asked of him about the basic human rights of females, both girls and women, he declared” We guarantee all their rights within the limits of Islam.”
All aware people who understand Islam know that the last four words of that statement has an obvious meaning.
Which is that with Islam the rights of females are very limited. As in within the Islamic view, they have little to no rights at all. .
As this has been so well explained by Brigitte Gabriel in her book, entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED in Chapter 9 of the title “Islam’s Contempt for Women” which informs its reader on page 171 “Control of behavior and disregard for human life are key elements in Islamic ideology.”
In addition, on the next page it further reads” Women in Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.”
The tragic and sad reality is that Islam is a religion of brutal, cruel, harsh and even, at times, murderous misogyny.
FYI says
Taliban is the pashto word for “student”
Yet that is not any real concept of a student.They don’t understand the concept of stuyding
Women find it hard in Afghanistan:it is especially hard to be a student as theTaliban confiscate books.
if Afghan women study science and note all of allah’s scientific errors..they might wonder about the Burqa nonsense.If allah clearly does not even understand Human Biology as any ex-muslims knows…why should any woman have to wear a burqa?Control women through fear.
Or allah’s unwitting way out of islam:Koran 10:94{pickthall version anyway}..by checking the sources.

Afghanistan: Taliban bar women from speaking loudly in public, singing, reading Qur’an publicly

Anyone who thought te Taliban would not do this simply has not been paying attention to their history.

Afghanistan is a sh*thole country, Afghans living here should be happy, but nooo, they attack us with knives.

How can Biden and his Minions not be considered traitors of the highest degree and dealt with accordingly? An entire army of arms given openly to things that have no right breathing!
John Forbes says
When the US FLED Afghanistan without even informing their allies it vastly emboldened the TALIBAN and all Muslims! This clearly showed that Western People are not willing to stand against the Taliban! The gutless will lead us all to defeat!
bill says
Heh, it cannot be all bad. In Germany it is reported that travel agents are selling holidays in Afghanistan to those Afghans who fled the country because they feared the Taliban
Scotsman48 says
But, but, but the Taliban dont cover up their Bachi Boys while they dance for these disgusting old smelly ”men”…As these wee boys are most certainly inciting them and making them horny.
I dont expect logic to come out of this obvious Fascist Religious Cult of Death and Destruction.
