Prophet Muhammad. Deobandi Islam relies on the idea that Islamic followers must have the greatest loyalty to their religion, Islam. Deobandis also deny the
social class that differentiates one person to another person based on their social status. They place the country as the second priority and they focus more
to protect their religion. They are willing to fight over other countries to protect Muslims. Therefore, they regard Western countries as enemies because they
hold non-Islam as the religion. Deobandis also justify the limitation and restriction access over women.
They employ the punishment of throwing the stone and amputating people whenever they believed that they are guilty. They do not regard Shia as Islam.
Therefore, they happened to kill massive number of Haraza people. Haraza is an ethnic in Afghanistan whose the majority of people hold Shia muslim.
Deobandism has been the basis of Taliban movement. They are not only Islamic group that tries to share Islamic values but they become the monster
who hold gun and get mistaken to interpret Quran in their hands.
1. The Taliban’s Perception on Women
Among the values that Taliban embraces, Taliban places a value that is fundamentally harmful
to women. In Taliban view, women’s movements and self determination should be restricted. Living in Taliban society, women get
big barrier to free them. The Taliban gives a strict regulation regarding how women act in public
as well as in private sphere. Women are prohibited to go to school and work.
Women are demanded to stay at home and forbade going outside home. If they really have to go outside, women in Taliban society should be accompanied
their mahram, their male relatives. They also have to wear burqa whenever they go outside. Burqa is the absolute requirement for women to be present in
the public area. It is a kind of clothes that completely cover women’s body
from their head to toe with only two spaces of open parts the eyes and the nose. The discrimination even goes further to the obligation for Afghan people to
cover their window with paint if there are women inside the house Physician for Human Right, 1998: 30.
The restriction to women’s actions and woman’s self determination is somehow irrational. Taliban do not have enough understanding and clear
reasons why women should be forced not to do the things that actually do not give harm. The prohibition of working and attending the school is the
exaggeration of wrong interpretation of Islamic values. Furthermore, women are also victimized in the healthcare area. Women
hardly get access to healthcare. Women are obliged to be examined only by female nurses or medical experts Physician for Human Right, 1998: 31. The
discrimination on healthcare is so harmful to women. They suffer more than man because there is lack of medical access and treatment that women can get.
They get poor quality of health that potentially affects their productivity of life. In the very worst case, it even can impact to the massive death of women there.
Bombing and war conducted of Taliban group severely bring bad impact to the Afghan people. They lose their house, money, and property. They are
turned into poorer people with no fortune. Men go to the war and women are prohibited to work Physician for Human Right, 1998: 31. It can eventually
worsen the condition of the family. As a result of this, they lose more resources to survive.
