Afghanistan: Ban on shaving, notices pasted outside salons

The Taliban made a statement after taking power in Afghanistan that it would not rule as before. People will be given an exemption, but it is not so. There again the radical Islamic regime from 1996 to 2001 has returned. Now the Taliban has issued a new decree to the salons of Afghanistan. Under this, he has been forbidden to cut anyone's beard. Under the new rule, they will have to make men's beards or hair only under Islamic law.

Notice imposed, no right to complain

According to some media reports, such notices have also been put up by the Taliban in the saloons of Helmand province. Salon operators have been told to stop cutting hair and beards in the American style and follow Islamic rules. It is further written that there is no right of complaint against this notice. Apart from this, similar reports are also coming from other areas of Afghanistan. There too Taliban fighters are going to the saloons and giving a new decree.

Clean shave permission was granted after Taliban rule

During the regime from 1996 to 2001, the Taliban enforced radical Islamic law. But after going to power, the rules were relaxed there. Salons had the freedom to cut hair or beard with any style, even men could clean shave. But once again men have been ordered to grow a beard there.
