3 years after seizing power following the U.S. withdrawal, the Taliban is not banning women from speaking in public to promote “virtue.”
From AP News. Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers have issued a ban on women’s voices and bare faces in public under new laws approved by the supreme leader in efforts to combat vice and promote virtue.
Do you want state prayer alerts?
The laws were issued Wednesday after they were approved by supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada, a government spokesman said. The Taliban had set up a ministry for the “propagation of virtue and the prevention of vice” after seizing power in 2021. …
The laws empower the ministry to be at the frontline of regulating personal conduct, administering punishments like warnings or arrest if enforcers allege that Afghans have broken the laws.
Article 13 relates to women. It says it is mandatory for a woman to veil her body at all times in public and that a face covering is essential to avoid temptation and tempting others. …
Women should veil themselves in front of all male strangers, including Muslims, and in front of all non-Muslims to avoid being corrupted. A woman’s voice is deemed intimate and so should not be heard singing, reciting, or reading aloud in public. It is forbidden for women to look at men they are not related to by blood or marriage and vice versa. …
Last month, a U.N. report said the ministry was contributing to a climate of fear and intimidation among Afghans through edicts and the methods used to enforce them. …

VIRTUE, FROM A MUSLIM? PEDOPHELIA. NECROPHELIA, BRSTISLOPHILES. FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION, SLAVERY, POLYANDRY. THESE ARE SIX OF THE TEN ISLAMIC CULTURAL TRADITIONS THAT THE DEMOCRAT PARTY WANTS TO NORMALIZE. THERE ARE TEN OF THEM, I ONLY KNOW SIX OF THEM. 😞 sorry
Oh Richard, don’t be so ridiculous. What about male genital mutilation? An American tradition.
Rich is our IFA nut!
We love him!
You sound like you are very interested Rich?!
Lord, invade the Taliban. Save them from hell. Turn their worlds upside down or right side up. Give them dreams and visions of Jesus. Protect women from this treatment and demeaning of them. Thank You. Amen.
Welcome to the Christian Taliban of America!
What?
Susan, I think Keller means the IFA.
We pray this oppressive and evil regime be dismantled and destroyed. May the women under it be visited by Yeshua, the man in white, who alone can give them true freedom and the knowledge that they are loved and valued. May all be confronted by the reality of the deep deception of Islam, and renounce and reject it – and embrace YHVH and Yeshua, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Amen!
