Taliban supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada has said that people have become unfamiliar with Sharia law, blaming previous goveشrnments for promoting what he called “un-Islamic practices” that, he claimed, distanced the population from religious teachings.
“In the past systems, un-Islamic matters were promoted, and people were alienated from religion,” Akhundzada said, according to a statement released by the Taliban’s deputy spokesperson. “They spread corruption and immorality, distorted the minds and thinking of the people, and attempted to drive them toward opposing religion and sect.”.”
