Taliban Ban Windows To Stop Women Being Seen Inside Homes
"Seeing women working in kitchens, in courtyards or collecting water from wells can lead to obscene acts," government spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid posted on X on Saturday.
A decree by the Taliban's supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada states that new buildings should not have windows that show "the courtyard, kitchen, neighbor's well and other places usually used by women," according to a translation by France24.
Existing windows looking into such areas should be blocked with a wall or should have their views obstructed in some other way "to avoid nuisances caused to neighbors."

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
