He has made his dupatta the flag of rebellion. She is openly talking eye to eye of the all-powerful government of a country and this rebellion is pricking the malevolent, radical Islamic government. We are talking about the brave women of Iran who have removed their hijab, scarf from the ends and made it a fringe. She is making it the flag of her freedom. She is waving the hijab in the air with open hair and this freedom is knocking at the radical government of Irani.
Hijab is mandatory for women in public places in Iran. Against which Iranian women have opened a front. Videos of women without hijab are becoming viral in social media. She is challenging the government for her independence.
Hijab has been compulsory for women in Iran since 1979. They cannot go out in public places without hijab. The Iranian authorities declared Tuesday 12 July as Hijab and Chastity Day, which women protested. She was seen walking in the streets, in the bazaars with hijab in her hands. He had to face a lot of opposition for this too. But these women are not ready to go back.
The most important aspect of this movement is that young men are also supporting women in protest against hijab. The Iranian government is pushing hard for the observance of the hijab. Strict instructions have been given to the army to follow the rules related to hijab. Seeing the women’s protests, the Iranian government turned on TV. But a video was circulated in which women dressed in green hijab and long white clothes were looking very happy and dancing after reciting verses from the Quran. But this video was made fun of on social media.
Actually, Iranian women have a problem with masculine thinking. She is saying that we should not be coerced. It is their choice not to wear the hijab. Masih Alinejad, an activist who talks about women’s rights, is constantly posting videos of girls protesting hijab on Twitter. In a tweet, she said, ‘We are removing our hijabs and I hope everyone joins us. Forcing women to wear the hijab is not part of Iranian culture. This is the culture of Taliban, ISIS and Islamic State. enough is enough.’
This is not the first time that women in Iran have protested against their clothes, the women here have been raising their voices continuously. Controversy over hijab and curtains is not new. In India too, there was a controversy about the hijab in the school college in Karnataka this year. But here the girls were talking about wearing hijab. Hijab was banned in some schools and colleges after protests by Hindutva organizations. The matter reached the court. Here the girls wanted that they should be allowed to go to school and college wearing hijab. But their wearing of hijab was banned.
Surprisingly, men make all the decisions regarding the dress code of women. Forced to wear hijab in Iran or forced to remove hijab in Karnataka. In both the cases, no consideration is being given to the will of the women. Men are deciding instead of both. Iranian women are saying that men should not decide our dress code, let them decide what to wear. In fact, the rebellion itself begins with oppression and oppression. Women have taken to the streets against the law imposed on them. And this time their number is not less. Although the Iranian government arrested some people only on July 11, but then women without hijab came out on the streets of Iran.
Here the matter is not only about hijab or Iran but it is about the issue related to women. The question arises whether the foundation of any religion is so weak that it can shake the clothes of women? Why should all the burden of religion be put on the shoulders of women? Why should men make all the decisions of women? The decision of which woman to wear should be hers and not the government’s. Is it the job of the government to decide the clothes of women only?
When we write against veils or hijab, we are trolled, threatened. It is said that if you do not want to veil, then walk around naked or wear a bikini. So are there only two ways for women to either wear a bikini or a veil, a hijab or a niqab? No, it is a matter of choice here that we should have the right to wear our clothes. Be it Iran or any country in the world, the attitudes about women are mostly seen to be tight. Surprisingly, when we talk about moving forward, women have to fight a kind of war for their clothes.
In India too, most of the decisions of women are taken by men. What they should wear and what not to wear, what they have to study and what not to read, everything is decided by the men. While our emphasis should be on women’s education, for their better future, but the attitude of malevolent thinking is so tight that it does not want to allow women to wear clothes of their choice.
The brave women of Irani who seem rebellious today will leave behind a better tomorrow for the girl in their legacy. These are courageous women, who are standing with the eyes of the government and saying that we reject your malevolent decision. no matter how hard you put our life
