No plan to lift ban on female education: Afghan Taliban
KANDAHAR: The Taliban’s chief spokesman announced that the ban on female education will continue to be in effect on the occasion of the second anniversary of the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan.
Zabihullah Mujahid dismissed inquiries regarding limitations on women and girls in an interview with a US news organization by asserting that the current situation will continue.

Beyond the sixth grade, girls not allowed to continue their education. It was the first of several restrictions that currently bar Afghan women from public life, including many occupations and educational settings.
On August 15, 2021, the Taliban took over when US and NATO soldiers left the nation after 20 years of war. Hibatullah Akhundzada, the top leader of the Taliban, is thought to the driving factor behind the abrupt March 2022 school closure.
No threat to rule
According to Mujahid, the Taliban saw their rule over Afghanistan as unending, receiving legitimacy from Islamic law, and encountering little danger.
He asserted that the Taliban’s rule, which he claimed derives its legitimacy from Sharia, has no defined duration. The emir (supreme leader) won’t ousted for acting contrary to Sharia. Thus it will continue to function for as long as it can.
Mujahid claimed that neither internal nor external dangers exist to the Taliban’s rule. He argued that Afghans deserve unity and that the current administration is acting appropriately.
Mujahid avoided inquiries concerning the limits on women and girls, dismissing them with the remark that there was no sense in talking until there were updates. He also suggested that the change was improbable.

“Everything will be under the influence of Sharia,” Mujahid stated. When asked why the Taliban aren’t asking for help from Muslim-majority nations to restart female education, he responded that they don’t require it.
