Badamchian: We should allow anyone who wants to be naked to do so
Asadollah Badamchian, the Secretary-General of the Islamic Coalition Party, spoke with Expansion News about hijab and the morality police.
After the revolution’s victory, in our system, neither the issue of mandatory chador nor mandatory hijab has been enforced, but rather it has been legalized. The law is that in an Islamic country, hijab is a necessity and must be observed according to the law.
The morality police is a legal institution and says if a woman does not follow legal issues in public places and wants to be naked, who should prevent it? Should we allow anyone to be naked if they wish, dance in the middle of the street, and assault whoever they want? This is the West, and if you go to the West, this is the situation.
