Enemies are desperately making every effort to promote ideas against hijab in Iran

If someone does something wrong, in private, this is between them and God, but the Islamic government–like the government of the Commander of the Faithful–is obliged to stand up against what is committed in front of the people's eyes and in the social environment.

Gender equality or gender justice? What is the viewpoint of Islam?

Those who pretend that 'gender justice' means the participation of women in the all areas that men participate in, are betraying women's trust, respectability, and identity. Women are highly respectable; no one has implied that women should not participate in various social arenas, or that they should not undertake responsibilities, or that they should not become scientists: no one is against this.

Traits of purity, piety and enlightenment of such an exceptional person are what have influenced our Islamic teachings throughout the history of Shi’a Islam.

Iran proved Hijab promotes acquiring knowledge among women: Ayatollah Khamenei

Today, in the Islamic Republic of Iran, various fields of sciences are available for women: women who have preserved both their modesty and chastity--their womanly purity, their hijab, thoroughly; raise their children based on Islamic values; take care of their husbands the way Islam advises; while they continue with their scientific and political activities at the same time.

Today the most pious and revolutionary women of our nation are the educated ones: Ayatollah Khamenei

The existence of this group of outstanding women in different areas signifies the success of the Islamic outlook on women.

Hijab gives women freedom and identity: Ayatollah Khamenei

Hijab brings about dignity. It makes women more valuable. It increases women's dignity and respect. Therefore, it is necessary to appreciate hijab and to be thankful to Islam for emphasizing hijab.
