The Ayatollah Khomeini said it: “Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.”
Zara Esmaeili, the Iranian artist who was arrested by the Islamic Republic’s security forces on Saturday, used to sing in public without the mandatory hijab, both of which are illegal for women in Iran.

“Young Iranian woman arrested for singing in public,” Iran International, August 4, 2024:
In the latest crackdown on artistic expression, Iranian security forces have arrested Zara Esmaeili, a young artist whose videos singing in public without hijab, in defiance of the Islamic Republic’s rules, went viral.
Esmaeili, known for performing without the mandatory hijab in public spaces like the metro and parks, has been taken into custody, with no information available about her whereabouts or condition. The arrest has left her family in despair as they struggle to ascertain her fate.
A source close to the situation confirmed that “Zara’s family has been unable to locate her”.
The Islamic Republic prohibits women from singing or dancing in public, reflecting a broader repression against women’s rights. These moves, enforced since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, are rooted in conservative interpretations of Islamic law that deem the female singing voice provocative and sexually suggestive….

The Ayatollahs prefer little girls, preferably 4 years old( btw, how old was the girl Muhammad fancied and married her when she was 6 ? ). The Ayatollahs like ” thighing ” with little girls, naked from waist downwards.
John Smith says
I just hope the mullah’s never find out that the song she is singing (back to black) was written and produced by a Jewish lady.
ed says
She committed two capitol offenses
Not wearing a hijab

OLD GUY says
The Love and Peace of Islam will show her the way by beheading or stoning her to change her evil ways.
Coming to the whole world if we allow it.

One of allah’s famous scientific mistakes is his epic misunderstanding of human reproductive Biology in koran 86:6-7.The hijab nonsense,like the Jizya tax money scam .was cunningly inserted into the koran to make it look like it came from some god.In fact it comes from tafsir ibn kathir and had to do with the classification of women.So i laugh at muslima sweethearts mistakenly thinking it has to do with modesty.
Smart women know that the hijab is complete nonsense.Why should a woman have to wear a hijab when allah does not evenunderstand human Biology?Smart women abandon islam.
