Taliban Minister's Radical View Than Traditionally For Women Education

In a rare disagreement with the present Taliban regime in Afghanistan about women's education, Taliban-appointed deputy foreign minister Sher Mohammad Abbas Stanikzai criticized their government. He said the lack of access to education for women is the main reason for Afghanistan's people distancing themselves.

Stanekzai further added that this is the main reason why the neighboring countries and foreign nations have also distanced themselves from the issues Afghans are facing.

A Rare Disagreement Among Taliban Ministers About Women's Education:


This is the rare occasion when a Taliban minister spoke so openly in favor of women's education. According to ToloNews, Mr. Stanikzai said,

"This is everyone's right. This is the natural right which Allah........., how can someone take this right from them? If anyone violates this right, this is an oppression against........this country."

The Taliban-led government has banned women from pursuing higher education in Afghanistan after taking over the power. The Taliban government has limited schools to girls until sixth grade.

Afghanistan is reeling under a severe economic crisis because of the sanctions imposed on the nation due to Taliban leaders not following the obligations they were urged to after taking control over Kabul.


Different Opinions of Taliban Ministers on Education Standards:


As per the TOLONews report, speaking at a graduation ceremony, Stanekzai stressed the importance of reopening schools for girls beyond sixth grade. He said a society without knowledge is dark.

He emphasized that the Government should try to open the doors of educational institutions for everyone. Today, our only problem with our neighbors and the world is caused by the issue of education.

The ceremony during which these comments were made was held by the Taliban's borders and tribal affairs ministry. The ceremony was to mark the graduation of students who have studied in educational entities under the ministry.

Taliban Border and Tribal Minister Noorullah Noori said youth living in far areas who did not have access to education, were enrolled in schools. He stressed that there is no distance between religion and modern education.

He stated that the issue of distance is not true. There is no distance and education is being taught under Islamic Emirate's rule. He said I can tell you that there has been no such system before.

Another Taliban minister also urged the government and religious scholars to pay serious attention to raising the quality of education. Taliban-appointed education minister, Habibullah Agha, recently criticised their government for the poor quality of education in the country's religious schools.
