The war on women is encoded in the Sharia, which regards women as inferior. So the shabby treatment of women doesn’t stop with the “radical” Taliban. It is endemic in mainstream Islam. The guardianship program is still practiced in Saudi Arabia, where a woman was jailed for 11 years for online expression supporting women’s rights.
“Your women are a field for you, so go to your field as you will…” — Qur’an 2:223
“Allah gives you a responsibility concerning your children, to the male the equivalent of the portion of two females…” — Qur’an 4:11
“I looked into Paradise and I saw that the majority of its people were the poor. And I looked into Hell and I saw that the majority of its people are women.” — Sahih Bukhari 3241; Sahih Muslim 2737
“If a husband calls his wife to his bed [i.e. to have sexual relation] and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning.” — Sahih Bukhari 4.54.460
The face that Saudi Arabia presents to the Western world doesn’t quite look the same as what Saudi women who seek equal treatment see. And Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has declared that ‘Turkey has nothing that contradicts their beliefs’” with reference to the Taliban.
Aside from the trampling of women’s rights in Islam, the article below also reveals the abusive sectarianism that characterizes the religion as well. The Taliban also banned books by Iranian authors and publishers, while Iran has been indiscriminately driving out Afghans from their country by the hundreds of thousands. This is the Sunni/Shi’ite divide in action.
These are the kinds of practices that leftists are bringing into the West. Do they really believe that one’s most deeply held beliefs and cherished cultural practices can simply be parked at the border?
“Taliban ban dozens of books written by women from Afghan universities,” by Estelle Nilsson-Julien, EuroNews, September 19, 2025:
Out of the 679 textbooks banned by the Taliban administration, 140 were written by women, while 310 were drafted by Iranian authors or publishers.
The Taliban administration has banned 140 books written by women from being taught in Afghan universities in a set of new education guidelines issued in late August, according to reports.
Among the 679 banned textbooks, 310 were drafted by Iranian authors or publishers.
In a letter addressed to Afghan universities, the deputy academic director of the Ministry of Higher Education, Ziaur Rahman Aryoubi, stated that a panel of “religious scholars and experts” had found that the banned books violated the Taliban interpretation of Sharia laws.
According to Aryoubi, the works were assessed for their “ideological, cultural, religious and scientific” content….
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
Regarding the anti-female essence of Islam, one example of this is with Afghanistan.
For some time back way before Joe Biden gave always Afghanistan to the Taliban. An international news reporter asked an official Taliban representative about the Taliban respecting the human rights of woman if they ever did take over the land of Afghanistan again.
That Taliban spokesman answered that 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.

What else can anyone expect?
“ban” is part of their label, who they are, what they are, and they hate females so much….probably hate the fact that only females can give birth to children and if they want to keep their scuzzy group going, they **need** women, have to **depend** on females, and some females are smarter (that’s not difficult) than the ban goons….they must hold all females captive to their filthy, evil ideas.
Troybeam says
The men are so sure women select the sex of a child so when a female is born its the woman’s fault & no matter how many times it’s explained if explained the men determine the sex of a child.
somehistory says
They show their stupidity every time they open their mouths or take an action.
Taking a line from ‘teach’ and ‘new’….You can’t teach a muzzie any Truth…new or old.

Islam insults God’s creation everytime they move against women . For a group that tries to gain legitimacy they missed the part where God created Adam’s help mate put her on an equal level as Adam
OLD GUY says
Someone explain to me how so many women in the western free world stand up and support Islam. They can’t be that dumb, muslim men treat women like live stock, not equals or partners in life. Hell they make women cover up from head to toe. They don’t even do that to goats
John Pepple says
It’s a big mystery. I’ve spent a quarter of a century trying to figure it out, and I still don’t know. The same thing can be said about Queers for Palestine. It was amusing watching them be challenged by people pointing out to them how homophobic Hamas is. They were confused and obviously in total denial about it.
Spiro says
The Muslim men are master of sweet talk and manipulation.
They say what women want to to hear to get to their goal . Western men don’t sweet talk like Muslim
Islam is the master class of lies and westerners are total ignorant of Islam and Sharia

I don’t know that these women share our concerns for them.
My concern is that our governments, that are supposed to protect our citizens and the borders of our countries, don’t take the hideous ideas carried by Islam seriously.
They are still under the stupid understanding that it’s just another religion.
You can have all the sophisticated technology in the world, but if you hold open the gates
to the enemy, what good does that technology do.
When the U.S. went into Afghanistan and Iraq they thought those people people would
take one look at what was on offer by Western freedom, as opposed to what they had, and join
the West. What a shock when that didn’t take root and bloom.
I’m glad to have information about the hideous practices of Islam and I thank you for your
efforts, so we, who fight Islam, can be clear why, exactly, we don’t want that form of government in our countries.
