Taliban demands that Afghanistan adopt their version of Sharia law
Experts believe that the Taliban’s command to Afghan courts to completely apply their version of Sharia Law, including the possibility of public executions, amputations, and flogging, would further deteriorate the state of human rights in the poor nation.
Alaiqadar Amirul Momineen, the Supreme Leader of Afghanistan, gave the “obligatory” order after meeting with judges to “examine the cases of thieves, kidnappers, and seditionists,” according to Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.
“You are required to give the restriction and punishment in such situations that have complied with all Shariah requirements since this is the Sharia’s directive,” and taking action is required,” Mujahid tweeted on Sunday.
One of the foremost experts on Sharia law in the world and professor of Islamic law at UCLA, Kaheld Abou El Fadl, told MINIECHAT that there is a long history of controversy around the regulations of Sharia and varied interpretations of its significance.
Every legal issue has ten opposing viewpoints. Sharia is quite flexible, he said.
El Fadl said to MINIECHAT that according to Islamic law, sharia law refers to the “search for the divine will.” Although it is customary to equate Sharia with Islamic law in both local and Western discourses, Sharia is a far larger and all-encompassing concept, according to a statement on El Fadl’s website.
When the Taliban was last in power from 1996 to 2001, the group’s harsh interpretation of the religion entailed brutal penalties such public executions, stoning, floggings, and amputations.
According to El Fadl, the bulk of Islamic jurists throughout history didn’t understand the law the same way the Taliban does, hence severe penalties were seldom carried out within the 14000-year tradition of Sharia. El Fadl said that it was impossible to disregard the Taliban’s peculiar interpretation of Sharia. Anyone who doesn’t suit their definition may be executed, according to them.
Afghanistan has forbidden females from returning to secondary school, and women are no longer allowed to work in the majority of industries or travel great distances without the supervision of a male guardian.
Women were prevented from attending amusement parks in the Afghan capital of Kabul last week after the Taliban’s morals ministry announced restrictions on women’s access to public parks.
Most musical genres were outlawed by the Taliban during their first rule since they were seen to be anti-Islamic, and in retaliation for that action, Afghan folk musician Fawad Andarabi was slain in August after being dragged from his house.
The Taliban’s new pronouncement about Sharia law, according to Farhan Haq, deputy spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General, was “worrying,” he told MINIECHAT.
We anticipate them to maintain their vow to preserve the current human rights commitments made in Afghanistan because they have assumed the role of de facto power, according to Haq. “They haven’t been keeping their promises. We will keep pursuing this with them. All forms of the death punishment are unacceptable to us.
According to the UN, about half of the nation suffers from severe hunger. According to a research released in May by the International Rescue Committee, an estimated 43% of Afghans only eat one meal a day, and 90% of those polled identified food as their top priority.
