“Courageous moment brave Iranian woman confronts a cleric after he told her to ‘fix her hijab’ or she’ll get arrested,” by Sam Lock, Mailonline, August 17, 2018:
Provocative footage has emerged of the moment a Muslim woman challenges a cleric who ordered her to fix her hijab on a public street in Iran.
The man can be seen telling the woman to ‘fix your hijab or I’ll get you arrested’ when the woman bravely rips the veil off her head in anger and walks away.
The Facebook group My Stealthy Freedom, which uploaded the video on Friday, described the cleric’s behaviour as ‘humiliating and arrogant’.
‘This is the wrong culture that has been telling women for forty years now. Those who want to conquer women always betray the concept of struggle and freedom,’ the caption reads.
Provocative footage has emerged of the moment a Muslim woman (pictured) challenges a cleric who ordered her to fix her hijab on a public street in Iran
Iranian law for the last four decades has dictated that women must cover their heads in public, with failure to do so a jailable offence.
However, there is a growing movement of people in Iran who oppose the laws that make it mandatory for women to wear veils.
The My Stealthy Freedom group encourages women to practice daily civil disobedience and to protest patiently and respectfully.
They aim to film and hold those to account for their ‘ugly’ behaviour.
‘If you are offended, film their ugly behavior. Let them publish their own responsibility for the ugliness of their behavior,’ the group says….

When one watches these spineless, brush-faced, rag-rimmed, religion-drugged clerics berate women while “men” stand around like frightened children, one sees an unescapable future revolution. This cleric will not pass away under the current administration; most likely under the boots of the people.
Alien Republican says
Should’t a “true chauvinist” defend his honour in front of that cleric. How dare he insinuate that alpha-male has not his wife and reputation under control. I think chopping of the clerics head is within the value of that culture, since as mutism you only answer to Allah.
Alien Republican says
“as a muslim” not “as mutism”. Still interesting typo.

We must be informed of the consequences of her brave action. I am so sorry Muslim women are so disrespected by Islamic men. We sojourn such a short time on this earth, it is shameful our humanity can be so degraded.
Carolyne says
Congratulations to the brave Iranian woman. I don’t know what her punishment will be, but she appears to be old enough to remember when Iranian women were free. Until Jimmy Carter betrayed the Shah, this would not have happened. I hope that ignorant peanut farmer is happy with the results of his treachery. He will not be going to that heaven he looks forward to. I personally do not believe in the concept of heaven and hell, but if it exists, I know where he is headed for; to join the Ayatollah Khomeini and the others who betrayed the Iranian people.
Michael Reidy says
Yes; she must be watched over by people who care about her and don’t want her to suffer.
Ziba Delavar says
Where are the western feminists? Nowhere? Doesn’t surprise me. Western feminists do NOT stand for anything of value other than abortion and their hatred of straight white men. I pray for the day that revolution will come to Iran and overthrow this barbaric government and turn all the mosques into public toilets.
Terry Gain says
Western feminists are too busy exercising their right to choose to be bothered by this. Those who may have noticed are suffering from Omar Sharif Swoon Syndrome too much to care.
gravenimage says
Grimly spot on, Terry.
gravenimage says
Ziba, I am a Western woman who believes in equal rights for women, and I stand with her.
StellaSaidSo says
Likewise, GI. But Ziba referred to modern Western FEMINISTS, not Western women in general, most of whom believe in equal rights. As a veteran of second wave feminism, I recognise the distinction. I’m surprised you missed it.
peter says
The feminist movement is the ultra left wing movement of women who have joined forces with muslims ,commies and tratiors who call themselves liberals . People should realize who thery are .They are nothing but wolves in sheep’s clothing .Shame on them and any body who supports them !
StellaSaidSo says
Indeed, these ‘third wave’ ‘feminists’ have sullied the ‘brand’ beyond redemption, which is why no genuine Western feminist (ie advocate for equal rights for women) identifies with them. This does not mean that the plight of Muslim women and girls has been forgotten. It’s just that those of us who are involved in, eg, campaigning against FGM and child marriage, volunteering at women’s refuges etc, do not call ourselves ‘feminists’. Today’s ‘feminists’ are a petulant rabble who think that it is a woman’s right to wear a head-bag, that the ‘wage gap’ is real, and that Linda Sarsour is heroic. They are the enemy of true equality and freedom, and an insult to the women who fought and won the serious battles long before they were even born.
Ralph says
Well said, if the people rise up again this US administration is ready and willing too back them up with real and tangible help. Unlike the previous administration who did nothing. Take to the streets people across Iran in the hundred of thousands and those uneducated self righteous religious will run for the hills. God bless the good people of Iran.
Alien Republican says
Western feminists represent nothing else but themselves and they are few if still to many.

It is their prophet Muhammad teachings which is lacking the respect for women.

Wonderful. I have great hopes for the Iranians. A lovely people. Iran may be the first Islamic country to drop Islam entirely. To drop all pretense about ‘moderating’ the evil and simply saying: “Enough. We want to breathe, to live in the light, to love. Islam is anti-human, so on the rubbish heap with it. We take our human dignity back. Men and women can be friends.’
God is love, and nothing in his creation needs a veil.
Westman says
Yes, Iran has a chance to again assume the Persian greatness that is suppressed by Islam. The majority of Iran are children who see clearly the opportunities denied by Islam and are a ticking time bomb on a weakening regime.
blitz2b says
Yes Iran has a chance to liberate itself from Islam but they need to act fast.
If the liberals take control of the WH then like their complacent limp dick leader Obummer, failed US President of the past eight years, they will elect another Islam panderer who will not only ignore the plight of the Iranians but will support the theocratic Islamic thugs with their pro Islam policies.
Under President Trump Iran’s oppressed people have an excellent chance to start a revolution against the mullahs and be noticed by the west and their efforts will be rewarded through US backing.
The time to act fit them is NOW!

Unfortunately, this hectoring cleric is just as Iranian as is this courageous woman. Not all Persians oppose Islam, unfortunately.

ISLAM HATES WOMEN and only wants to KEEP THEM ENSLAVED both for time and eternity.

PATRICIA KOENIG says
North African and Arabian men treated their women better than the Muslims do. Aisha is a witness to that fact.
gravenimage says
So is Khadija. It is notable that this businesswoman held her position before Islam. No more businesswomen after Islam was imposed.
Mac-101 says
U gotta give Mohammad credit. As a 20 year old he got himself a rich 40+ momma that he worked for who owned two caravans. Not bad!
Jean says
Patricia Koenig.
North African men at the time were Christian and Jewish, and yes, they had a rather civilized relation to women. Women could live as they chose: the story of Maria the Egyptian (the saint) demonstrates that they could court a lifestyle of ‘free sex’ in the city as well as choose to live all alone, and naked, in the wilderness, without being molested. Both are impossible in an Islamic society.
As for Aisha… Muhammad’s marriage proposal to a six year old was NOT the norm of his time. Even Abu Bakr, her father (Muhammad’s most faithful companion), was so surprised at the suggestion that he actually protested to begin with… But then this complete failure as a father decided to obey the cult leader and hand over his little one to her torment. Imagine if Abu Bakr had put his foot down at this crucial moment. Would this have prevented the subsequent practice of child marriage in Islam?
Aisha herself reports in a hadith that after she was given to Muhammad, she became so ill that all her hair fell out. That is a sign of extreme stress. Sexual abuse would do that. Remember, Muhammad abused her from the beginning (“thighing” her), he just didn’t penetrate the vagina until the child was nine years of age.
The more one reads the Islamic sources, the greater the depth of depravation which emerges.
Jean says
An afterthought: History has these crucial moments from time to time when one moral decision may determine the conditions of life for generations to come. I believe that we experience such a morally pivotal moment now in Britain – through Tommy Robinson’s effort: He has exposed the organized Muslim sexual enslavement of children for all the public to see. Their immediate reaction will determine the future for all British children.
If the adults of this generation choose to let this moment pass and do not stop the evil, then the future of the next generations will surely be a misery of the same depth that children in Yemen or Pakistan suffer today. Once the degradation has become norm, it is very hard to fight effectively.
The question of whether to stand with or against TR very much hinges on this moral issue. So does the fate of Britain. Each individual is – for a narrow window of time, just now – part of this decision.
StellaSaidSo says

September 4th will be a day of great significance for Britain. If the State attempts to incarcerate TR again, the response must be immediate and unambiguous. Hopefully, it won’t be bloody. But that will come if Treason May and Seditious Javid persist.
Mac-101 says
Well said. It is amassing that in modern times many or these CULTs have the leader abuse small children, girls and boys of the cult member.
.
You are 100% correct. The future of England and Europe will depend if the People stand up for their children NOW. 10, perhaps 5 years from now will be way to late without major bloodshed.
Mac-101 says
It is amassing that even today many Cult leaders sexually abuse the young boys and girls of their members.
.
You are 100% correct. If the People, Men and especially Women do NOT stand up for their children now against these animals; 10, perhaps even 5 years from now will be way to late without major bloodshed!

Dear readers
I challenge every human being (especially Muslims) the sum of $200,000 to find the word HIJAB denoting the covering of a woman in any way shape or form in Muhammad’s Quran
Since I am willing to risk $200,000, I may be either an incredible fool or one who KNOWS the Quran FULLY
The whole issue of Hijab is a SCAM perpetrated by Muslim MEN to subjugate and humiliate their Women
Tragically, almost ALL judges in the West because they are not only Quran ignorant but too lazy to even read and or investigate this issue allow this mendacity to win against innocent VICTIMS of the scam
Anyone willing to lose $200,000 challenging me?
Since there will be NO takers, then this FACT should be spread in every manner on the internet to WAKE people up and not get sued by Muslims and lose

May be nothing about hijab, but unless I’m mistaken, I recall Robert Spencer citing Islamic scripture sayng that women must be covered of veiled or something? Do you know what the core texts say about the issue? I know they say something about what can be shown — I recall some incident where the amount of cover was defined…
Rufolino says
What a brave, authentic, woman.
Anger gives people strength and power.
People such as this will eventually overturn the hideous regime in Iran.
Raja says
Any other (non-Muslim) society would not generally challenge women in public places. But with Islam, it is a different story.
Maybe the authorities are bidding their time due to the economic meltdown of Iran. Otherwise, the incidence would have already triggered a nasty reaction of the secret police.

Really? Haven’t noticed that Muslims are running away from Muslim lands; and Saudi Arabia, instead of the ex-patriots, is building and supporting mosques to keep them from being “lost”?
Islam is fracturing into modernists and feudalists now that the “beast” is visible in the media and economically accessible by travel. Hang on Ibrahim, a wave is going to run right over your unhappy, angry personage as you stand in place holding fast to the past.
Are you Iran’s, “Mr. Bigmouth”, by any chance? He’s a real character interviewed in Frontlines, “Our Man In Iran” . You can watch it at PBS.org and see if it describes yourself.

When it comes to Islam–shit happens and happens and happens, it is never ending hate, what a great religion for followers. A lot of people, where I live, think I am a hate monger, racist, nasty person. They have no problem telling me Islam is a peaceful religion and I should f ck off and shut up. People who are supposedly smart, kind, lovers of life–I am so sick of them. They refuse to read anything about the wonderful religion. I will hold everyone of the naysayers responsible for the future gloom and doom. It’s a wonderful world thanks to Islam, and all it’s wonderful people i.e. Ibrahim, The Thighing Master.

ibrahim itace muhammed says
Alien, Quran is self-evident that it is uncorrupted words of God the creator of all, including righteous men like Jesus and Moses and unrighteous beings like the satan you call Holy Spirit. It is a revelations of knowledge from God to mankind through Prophet Muhammad the unlettered who could not possibly copy from previous messages of monotheism through prophets like Jesus and Moses but confirmed truth them and filtered out the filths of paganism like the doctrines of Godman and begotten son God imported and mixed with the truth by later followers.Read the Quran carefully with the aid of standard interpretations by Muslim scholars.
Thank you
BrianH says
ibrahim, you say you revere Jesus as a righteous prophet. Jesus said “The thief cometh not but to steal and to kill and to destroy. I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” Adherents to your religion have said “We love death as you love life.” It is not difficult to discern who is God, the author of life, and who is the thief.
StellaSaidSo says
Ibrahim, I have read the Koran carefully, and have come to the conclusion that it is the biggest load of bollox ever inflicted on humankind. Most of it is plagiarised from other sources, it is full of factual errors and jaw-dropping absurdities, and is clearly the product of a primitive culture. The world would be infinitely better off without such deluded nonsense.
don vito says
itace, your own scriptures says Jesus was without sin, mo was just a man. Yet you choose to follow a man, and not he is without sin. You need to forsake islam, and continue your search for the answer to the question you ask many months ago, the question you ask “when did Jesus become the Son of God”. It was a good question and I hope it propels you to find the answer, which will lead you away from the allah thing.
Learning Islam says
Islam is an enemy of humanity, the Qur’an, Sira and Hadith are parts 1, 2 and 3 of the psychopaths instruction manual . No other religion (other than satanism) has ever declared war on humanity. War on Sin maybe but not humanity
As for Surah 68:42, this is talking about MAN not Allah SWT being bare, MEN and WOMEN will be bare and in the most vulnerable state they have ever been. It was even said that Men and women will be naked together but they will be so concerned about their judgment that will be the only thing on their minds.
Read Sura 66:1 Mohd caught sleeping with slave girls by his wives. Mohd made sura and threatened them repent. allah, angles, pious believer , kalifa all against women ,, allah will provide better wives.
learning islam says
What prophet is this you follow?!” “Where is his morality? This is the man that Muslims follow slavishly? Use your minds!”
The question of morality and how it is—or should be—one of the hallmarks of “prophethood.” At the start, the focal question: “Was Muhammad the prophet a moral man—the most upright man, worthy of being emulated.
an Ibn Taymiyya quote, which evaluated the signs of prophethood. Taymiyya asserted that there are many false-prophets, such as Musailima “the Liar,” a contemporary of Muhammad. Taymiyya concluded that many of these so-called prophets are, in fact, “possessed,” and that the only way to determine the authenticity of any prophet is by examining his biography (sira) and deeds, and see if he be found worthy of the title.
Being that this is the first of several episodes devoted to examining the concepts of morality and prophethood (with the notion that the former reinforces the latter), the theme for this particular episode was “purity” (tahara): “Was Muhammad a ‘pure’ man?”—in this context, a question concerning his sexual mores (or lack thereof).
warning: “for adults only!
“Is this the prophet to follow?” as he delineated some of Muhammad’s sexual habits.

وطء الميتة والبهيمة فلا حد فيه
Translation:
There is no punishment for having intercourse with a dead woman or with an animal.
http://crossmuslims.blogspot.ca/2010/03/necrophilia-in-islam-necrophilie-en.html
First, from the Koran, read verses unequivocally stating that Muhammad is the paragon of all virtue and morality, such as “And most surely you [Muhammad] conform (yourself) to sublime morality coran [68: 4].”
• a hadith depicting Muhammad lying next to a dead woman in her grave, as well as pointing to hadith categories called “intercourse with a dead woman,”
Muhammad had sex with a dead Aunt fatima (ali’s mother ).
In a democratic system ALLAH is the president and muhammad is the prime minister. Allah was the slave of muhammad. Muhammad made sex with his dead aunty fatima (ali’s mother ). How a man can do this? Satan was born in the form of muhammad.
• ” The Muslim legal text, al-Sharwani’s Hawashi, confirms that sex with a dead woman is not sinful or wrong according to Islamic law. This law is based on the example set by Muhammad. According to the hadith, Muhammad had sex with a dead woman before she was put in the grave.
• The gravediggers were so embarrassed that they proceeded to bury the woman’s corpse and the prophet with dirt, exclaiming, “O Prophet, we see you do a thing you never did with anyone else.” Muhammad answered: “I have dressed her in my shirt so that she may be dressed in heavenly robes, and I have farewell intercourse with her in her grave so that the torments of the grave may be alleviated from her.” Recently a new law was proposed in the Muslim Brotherhood dominated Egyptian parliament. It would allow for “farewell intercourse” with a wife’s dead body. Obviously Muslims know very well about this demented practice by Mohammed. Postmortem sex is apparently a traditional value within Islam. Civilized people call it necrophilia and it’s a criminal act. for whom he had a sick and unhealthy attraction to her.
• Look also Sahih Muslim 34424 (the same case of sex with dead aunt) Commentary of Imam Al-Nawawi on the Hadith Sahih Muslim: Book 003, Number 0684
• Muhammad having sex with his dead Aunt in the Grave. [“Kanz Al Umal” (The Treasure of the Workers, by Ali Ibn Husam Aldin, commonly known as Al-Mutaki Al-Hindi. He based his book on the hadiths and sayings listed in “Al-Jami Al-Saghir,” written by Jalal ul-Din Al-Suyuti.) “‘I (Muhammad) put on her my shirt that she may wear the clothes of heaven, and I slept with her in her coffin (grave) that I may lessen the pressure of the grave. She was the best of Allah’s creatures to me after Abu Talib’… The prophet was referring to Fatima , the mother of Ali. “The Arabic word used here for slept is “Id’tajat,” and literally means “lay down” with her. It is often used to mean, “Lay down to have sex.” then most any debased activity is halal.
ibrahim itace muhammed says
Low IQ Alrasooli, you are the one who is ignorant about the Quran because you don’t want know it. The Quran talks about decent dressing for women for them not be molested or ourage their modesty.In another verse it states that whenever women want go in public place where they could mingle with men they should cover their body except the face (illa ma Zahara minha). The Quran never Prescribe a special type of clothing, it depends on the environment and culture. what is important is decent and modest dressing that covers her body so that her attracting physical features will not be exposed to other than her husband.I order to attain this objective, many societies develope their own type of clothing covering the body. Arabs call it Hijab(covering),which most Muslims call their mode of dressing covering the body as hijab.so ,if you like you call it hijab or any other name in your local language, it is still the same, which means decent and modest dressing required by the Quran.
I hope you are convinced that the Quran teaches about Hijab, but i don’t need your rubbish $200,ooo .I will give $400,000 if you prove me wrong.
