Mawlawi Nabi Ghafori, a cleric in the northwestern Faryab province, addressed the public in a speech, regarding the marriage of girls with Taliban forces, saying the girls must “either be a mullah’s wife or his cow!”
In the video footage that sources sent to Hasht-e Subh on Saturday, the cleric is talking about the situation of women in the country and encouraging girls to marry Taliban forces.
Speaking in a public gathering, he says that mullahs are the kindest and most knowledgeable people in society. For this reason, “Either be a mullah’s wife or be a mullah’s cow.”
In this speech, he encourages families to convince their daughters to marry Taliban forces.
This is despite the fact that Mawlawi Nabi Ghafori issued a fatwa during the now-former republic government, stating that the war being waged by Taliban forces against the ANDSF is forbidden.
