   Mahmood Zakeri, the preacher at Kabul’s Abdul Rahman Grand Mosque and senior advisor to the Taliban’s Ministry of Refugees, sparked outrage on Friday after stating that women are not allowed to walk in public with both eyes open.

   In his Friday sermon on August 1, Zakeri defended the recent arrests of women by the Ministry for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, claiming:

   “A woman has no right to walk with both eyes open. When outside, she may only look with one eye. The other eye, along with the entire face, must be covered.”

   He went on to say that women, even with one uncovered eye, are only permitted to look at the path ahead and are not allowed to gaze elsewhere.

   Zakeri also cited a hadith, asserting that a woman should not leave the house without a valid excuse or a male guardian.

   “If a woman leaves home without a mahram, God, the angels, and all beings in the heavens and on earth curse her,” he said.

     @Sherri_Ingrey @KeepTakingTheSoma That's why they aim for the eyes when they shoot women who are seen without these beastly coverings.

     That clothing is NOT a neutral act.

     @KeepTakingTheSoma @HebrideanHecate Next thing they will be doing is taking one eye out of all girls and women no doubt. Disgusting pieces of shite, and the USA is STILL FUNDING THEM.
