How secret schools for girls are teaching under the Taliban’s nose, Nov. 7
The Taliban have been going against the traditions of their own religion as the Holy Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, has said that “knowledge is obligatory upon every Muslim man and woman.”
Also, the first revelation that the Holy Prophet had received was “read in the name of thy lord who created,” making it essential for all Muslims, whether man or woman, to know how to read and write so they can teach others in the future.
This is complete injustice and needs to be resolved.
