There are plenty of Islamic solutions to the un-Islamic abuses of human rights that go on in Afghanistan. Real true Islam gives full rights to women. To me it seems that in Afghanistan and elsewhere, people wrongly promote the idea that denying women rights is correct and Islamic, and unfortunately nobody stands up to challenge that. Everything can be done within the framework of Shariah. At least that's what I think.
