Mullah Yasin was not acting according to Islamic law, which does not require a woman to marry a man simply because he wants to marry her. However, the commodification of women under Islamic law leads to the idea that a woman is being intolerably and inexcusably impertinent if she doesn’t submit to anything she is directed to do.
“Taliban’s vice and virtue agent kills a teenage girl for refusing marriage proposal in Balkh Province,” South Asia Terrorism Portal, November 8, 2022 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
The Taliban’s senior vice and virtue agent, Mullah Yasin killed a teenage girl for refusing a forced marriage proposal in the Sholgara District of Balkh province, Hasht-e-Subh reports on November 7. Asif Waziri, the spokesman of the Taliban police in Balkh province confirmed this incident, emphasizing that Mullah Yasin was arrested by Taliban forces. But according to sources Mullah Yasin was released after spending a short time in the alleged Taliban custody in Sholgara District.

I guess death is better than having acid thrown in your face or being burned alive as some Muslim men are prone to do when they are rejected.
Basically in Islam no woman can refuse any Muslim man wanting to rape (marry) her, because it is a life and death decision.
It’s sad that human brains haven’t developed to the point where we can read these ancient barbaric religious texts written by goat-herders from the Bronze Age and say rationally that they’re full of crap, violence, injustice and evil and should no longer be used as a guide for life.
The only reason Muslims behave this way to one another and ourselves is because people are stupid and gullible enough to think a magic fairy from the sky came down and dictated these “rules” for humans and we must blindly follow them.
One wonders if she had carried a knife and killed him in self-defense if they wouldn’t throw her in jail or kill her, ya they probably would because Islam is a brotherhood of rapists and other scum of the Earth and they have no regards for the rights and lives of women…if you’re a Muslim woman, suicide or escaping the country is the only solution for you.

“a magic fairy from the sky came down and dictated these “rules” for humans and we must blindly follow them”.
Sounds a bit like the origins of the ten commandments!!!!
Fitna says
Indeed Keith, every religion thinks only they are following the true god, while the others are false/fake. They fact is they’re all correct, all religions are lies including their own, they just refuse to accept it, because the truth is boring.
It’s more exciting to imagine there’s a magical sky daddy looking after you, punishing the evil, rewarding the good and you’ll live in a happy paradise after you die. Jesus is Santa Claus for adults.
The sooner our religious friends wake up to reality, the better for all of us.
I’ll believe in a God the day he shakes my hands and takes me for a walk on the Sun, until then it’s bollocks as the Brits say.

George Cralin put it well.
“Religion has actually convinced people that there’s an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever ’til the end of time!
But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He’s all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can’t handle money!”

The misogynistic Taliban is based under the tyranny of the misogyny of Sharia, which gives females, both girls and women, very little to no basic human rights at all.
Therefore, about Sharia law, it should be made known that the actual origin of Sharia law is revealed in a Time –Life book with the title MESOPOTAMIA: THE MIGHTY KINGS copyright 1995. The point is this history book about the ancient pagan world of Mesopotamia informs the reader that “many Islamic laws resemble the Babylon and Assyrian forebears.” .page 150.
There is the above and other references imply that such pagan teachings were incorporated into the religion that Muhammad manufactured and then started.
Thus, this further reveal that a lot of ancient paganism is part of the whole religion of Islam.
In other words, ancient paganism makes up much of Islam with its Sharia Therefore Islam with its Sharia law are a hoax.
Walter Sieruk says
When a Taliban spokesman in referring to the question of the basic human rights of females, both girls and women, he declared” We guarantee all their rights within the limits of Islam.”
All aware people who understand Islam know that the last four words of that statement has an obvious meaning.
Which is that with Islam the rights of females are very limited. As in within the Islamic view, they have little to no rights at all. .
As this has been so well explained by Brigitte Gabriel in her book, entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED in Chapter 9 of the title “Islam’s Contempt for Women” which informs its reader on page 171 “Control of behavior and disregard for human life are key elements in Islamic ideology.”
In addition, on the next page it further reads” Women in Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.”
The tragic and sad reality is that Islam is a religion of brutal, cruel, harsh and even, at times, murderous misogyny.
