Taliban call on Muslim nations to ‘take inspiration from the Taliban’s system’ and establish ‘Sharia-based systems’
“Critics have also questioned where Islam endorses the Taliban’s strict policies, particularly those banning women and girls from work and education.” That’s a reasonable point, but will these critics address Islam’s deeply ingrained misogyny, which led the Taliban to ban women from work and education in the first place? “Taliban urges Muslim nations to emulate […]
