Why did the Taliban ban long hair?

[randolph85]

Nothing will exist till qayamah...
But we will rip all those who are destroying it whether they are army, isi, secularists like you or any other.
They all will be kicked out soon.

here u are saying u support the isi and pakistan and now u are talking about judgement day lollll

u are another jinnah paki, a fake pos.

[TheCongo]

lol first u are a aid worker from the congo(lol) now u are an afghan muslim. amazing transformation there.

so u are saying those beardless men were hazaras/uzbeks? lolll and unable? i saw quite a few mustaches there. unless they are 17 or younger, they should have hair on their face.

stop throwing a fit, jungle fever home wrecker qunduz.

You seem to have a terrible fixation on Qunduz. I don't know who the **** Qunduz is so its best you keep your homosexual fantasies to yourself, thinking I'm some other dude you're clearly obsessed with.

I am an aid worker originally from Congo and have never claimed I was not. I have spent 18 years doing aid work in Afghanistan and making a difference in people's lives while you have apparently been on on your ass mouthing bull**** from 10000 miles away conveniently via your computer. You obviously dont have the guts or will to go back to your country. Shows just how much you actually give a damn about it. All you're good at, on the other hand, is spouting cheap bull**** about trivialities only a person that has way too much free-time and the mental capacity of a 3rd grader would believe or care about.


People like you are only good at sitting on your asses in front of your computer screens, living luxurious lifestyles, and blowing hot air which no one whose brain's capacity is greater than a 3rd graders would care about either ****ing way. The Taliban banned long hair. How could they ?!! *Gasps* Actual Afghans are busy worrying about having enough food for the day.

[randolph85]

so an aid worker from a country more poor than afghanistan has been in the country since 1993? not only that, in a post here a couple months ago u are asking about islam as if it were the first time u heard about it, now u are adding (saw) after the name of the prophet? lol

if u are who u say u really are, i guess ibn khaldun was right about what he said about ur "type"

i know critical thinking isn't one of ur strong suits. the point was about banning things which are widespread among the taliban.

make beards mandatory but have beardless talibs
ban long hair but have long hair talibs
ban internet but broadcast messages online, and their followers arguing on their behalf online

lol the hell

Why was kite running banned?

Young lady, you are doing nothing but regurgitating other people's propaganda. Perhaps, you should do some reading on your country's history and the religion of your forefathers?

my "history" as well as "the religion of my forefather's" have failed me because they were documented by faithless miserable souls like you. you had a good history and you did a ****ty job making any use for it. i don't have that so i am not going to waste a single moment of my life studying a nation of faithless corrupted thieves who would rather depend on 18th century formulas to find solutions for 21th century issues before i make a comment or a statement because i don't owe them anything.
you had warriors, we are left with beggars. thanks to history.

also, try not acting like the dog that you are by getting all personal about it. surely you are capable of making a point with out bringing someone's family in to the matter in a discussion forum.

Why was kite running banned?

because it made people laugh and smile and be happy

The Vice and Virtue police were the only ones enforcing these policies mostly in Kabul. The titanic film became a huge sensation in Afghanistan, everyone imitated Leonardo Decaprio. There was even a bazaar in Kabul named titanic bazaar. Long hair was OK, as long as it was not in Leo's style.

Why was kite running banned?

Kite flying in Afghanistan and Pakistan is different from flying kites in Europe or the US which is mostly done in parks with no power lines. The string used in Afghanistan and Pakistan is mostly professional grade and can cut your fingers and people fly them from roofs which has caused death to many children because they fall from them. about a year ago I had a cousin who died flying a kite falling from his roof which forced the elders to ban the their children from flying kites. There is also a danger of disrupting traffic because the kites fall in the middle of streets causing accidents.

Also it was customary to gamble on kite flying. So gambling and the Taliban don't mix well which would probably be the main reason they banned it completely. From what I heard they banned kite flying in Afghanistan in 2006 for a short time because a child died.
Pakistan also banned kite flying because of safety reasons.

The UK also bans kite flying around power lines or traffic for safety reasons.

Something about kite runners would stand on peoples roofs sometimes, and were able to see inside peoples windows, or so i read in a book lol

doesnt make sense since they did not ban people from roofs, just the kite flying.
what is the name of this book and who wrote it
