International women\'s day has been celebrated for over a century, and since then it has manifested itself in different ways in each and every culture. In some countries it has morphed into a sort of Valentine\'s Day. In others the day highlights points that the United Nations intended by creating the occasion. Light is shed on human rights, women\'s rights, and the ongoing struggles of women worldwide. In Iran woman\'s day means all that and a little more. Many husbands choose this day to show their appreciation for their wives, and the ongoing efforts to assert women\'s rights are highlighted. But the occasion has added significance in Iran, because of the people\'s Islamic faith, which emphasizes the holy status of women in society. That might be news for someone with little information about the Islamic faith, but Muslims have numerous laws designed specifically to assert women\'s rights, written in a time when baby girls were such a disgrace for their family, they were buried alive at birth. The role of women in any society is a subject of much controversy and debate. In Iran that debate is very much alive as well, with its own specific aspects. In this edition of the show we\'ll be talking about the Iranian women, and her role and status in the Iranian society.

[26 Mar 2014] Blatant discrimination threatens religious freedom & women\'s rights - English

11/07/2012 - In a meeting with more than a thousand outstanding Muslim women from 85 countries who had participated in the International Conference on Women and Islamic Awakening, Ayatollah Khamenei the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution said that the conference is a good opportunity for women throughout the world of Islam to become acquainted with each other. He urged the participants to use the conference as a tool to launch an effective and permanent movement to revive the [Islamic] identity of Muslim women. Ayatollah Khamenei said that the west has been making comprehensive efforts over the past 100 years to isolate Muslim women from their Islamic identity, further stressing: \"The efforts by outstanding women of the world of Islam to revive this identity are the greatest service to the Islamic Ummah. This is because sense of identity, awareness and insight among Muslim women will have a major effect on Islamic Awakening and the dignity and honor of the Islamic Ummah.\" Ayatollah Khamenei referred to the western view of women as insulting and stated: \"Westerners consider women as a product and an instrument that men can benefit from and they have employed all their instruments and facilities to reach this goal, but in a hypocritical move, they have named this degenerate, flawed and misleading view \"freedom\", just as they choose deceptive names like freedom, human rights and democracy for crimes such as murder, plundering national sources of wealth, military operations and the waging of wars.\" The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution said that the Islamic view of women is the opposite of the western view and stressed that Islam brings about dignity and growth for women by giving them an independent identity. Ayatollah Khamenei referred to the successful experiences of faithful Iranian women in different scientific, political and managerial areas and added: \"In an Islamic environment, a woman achieves scholarly, personal, ethical and political growth and she is a pioneer in essential social issues, but she remains a woman.\" His Eminence said that the western view of women has resulted in the breakup of the family and an increase in the number of abandoned children in western societies. He added: \"The west will be harmed most on this front and it will collapse as a result of the social consequences.\" Ayatollah Khamenei said that from an Islamic point of view, men and women enjoy the same human characteristics and added: \"Allah the Exalted has bestowed different physical characteristics on men and women. And each of them plays a particular role in the growth and transcendence of mankind, but women\'s role is more important.\" Ayatollah Khamenei said that the most important responsibility of outstanding Muslim women is to highlight the role of women from an Islamic point of view. Referring to the essential role that Iranian women have played after the Islamic Revolution, he said: \"Women play a determining role in social developments, in revolutions and in Islamic Awakening because wherever women take part in a social movement with awareness, the progress and victory of that movement is guaranteed and this truth makes it absolutely necessary to preserve and strengthen women\'s presence in the developments of Egypt, Libya, Bahrain, Yemen and other parts of the world of Islam.\" Ayatollah Khamenei described Islamic Awakening as an amazing and unparalleled movement and stressed that it can change the course of history. The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution praised the Muslim nations that have carried out a revolution and added: \"The arrogant powers - headed by America and Zionism - are astounded by this great movement and they are trying their best to curb this movement and ride its waves.\" His Eminence said that the arrogant powers try to discourage the people of the regional countries from continuing their presence and keep them busy with internal conflicts in order to curb Islamic Awakening. He stressed: \"If Muslim nations resist in the face of this plot and continue their presence on the scene, they will definitely defeat the arrogant powers because the sword of all the arrogant powers is blunt and ineffective against the people\'s presence and piety.\"...... The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution said that the enemies of Islam and Iran have been hatching plots since the victory of the Islamic Revolution and added: \"There is a lot of western hype these days, but they do not understand that with the sanctions they have imposed over the past 30 years, they have vaccinated the Iranian nation against any sanctions.\" Ayatollah Khamenei added: \"Sanctions do not harm us. The people of Iran resisted. They resisted in the face of the enemy\'s machinations by sacrificing their wealth, their life and the life of their loved ones. Today we are a hundred times more powerful and more advanced than we used to be thirty years ago.\" The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution referred to the advances that Iran has made in different areas and addressing outstanding Muslim women throughout the world of Islam, he said: \"Today faithful Iranian women are proudly present in different areas of progress. The educated and outstanding women of our country are among the most pious and revolutionary Iranian women. The west is trying to distort this truth with thousands of propaganda tools.\" Ayatollah Khamenei referred to the failed efforts by the west to discourage the Islamic Republic from supporting the Palestinian nation and stressed that the Islamic Republic will continue supporting the Palestinian nation and other Muslim nations. He added: \"By Allah\'s favor, we will stand by the Palestinian nation. We will stand by the Muslim nations that have carried out a revolution. We will stand by the oppressed people of Bahrain. We will stand by all those who are opposed to America and Zionism. We are standing firm and we support them. And in this regard we will not take the interests of any individual or any power into consideration.\"

International rights groups are calling on Saudi Arabia to allow women to drive ahead of a planned day of defiance against a ban on female drivers. Amnesty International wants Saudi authorities to respect women\'s right to drive. The group has expressed astonishment that in the 21st century, Saudi authorities continue to deny women the right to legally drive a car. Human Rights Watch has also thrown its weight behind the Saudi women\'s campaign dubbed \"Women to Drive\". Meanwhile, Saudi authorities have threatened women not to join the campaign on Saturday. Saudi Arabia is the only country in the world which forbids women from getting behind the wheel. Recently, dozens of women have defiantly posted online videos of themselves driving in several Saudi cities.

Saudi authorities have warned against a campaign to give women the right to drive in the conservative kingdom. The warning comes as Saudi female activists are gearing up against a long-standing driving ban, with more defiant women already getting behind the wheel. More than 50 videos showing Saudi women driving have been posted online over the past two weeks. A video, which went viral on the Internet this month, shows a fully veiled woman driving in the capital Riyadh as passing drivers give her a thumbs-up. Under the slogan, Women\'s Driving is a Choice, female activists have called for a demonstration on Saturday against the ban in the country. One Saudi woman by the name of Manal al-Sharif, who was put behind bars a couple of year ago for posting a video of herself while driving, says Saudi women are determined to drive.

In the Islamic perspective, women are an honorable, dignified, noble, and highly respected aspect of both the family unit and of the society in general. But what is the western perspective of women? Is the call for \"women\'s freedom\" by western civilization a reality or is it just a deception? The Leader of the Muslim Ummah Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei describes what the western world has done to the honor and the dignity of women just so that they can increase their profits and fill their pockets.

Nasrallah: EU Decision Means Involvement in any Israeli Aggression Eslam al-Rihani Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah said on Wednesday that the latest EU decision regarding Hezbollah will only doom to failure, advising the European states to soak their paper in water and drink it, for the Resistance will remain vital and victorious by the will of Allah Almighty. Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan NasrallahDuring his speech at the annual Iftar ceremony held by the Women\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Committee of Islamic Resistance Support Association of Hezbollah, Sayyed Nasrallah noted that the resistance has its own presence and influence in the regional equations, and has been always a concern at the Lebanese, Arab, regional and international levels, whether positively or negatively. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"A positive interest from those who believe in the resistance, pin their hopes on it and consider it to be a source of pride, and negative interest from those who consider it a source of threat for their occupation and hegemony,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" he said. His eminence indicated that the Resistance is not on the margin and there is always attempts to eliminate and crush it, whether militarily, politically, morally or culturally, expressing beliefs that such decisions have no more than psychological effects. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"The most important for the Lebanese Resistance is to get the support of its people and to express their will, pride and view in defending their land and their sovereignty.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" Sayyed Nasrallah stressed that \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Resistance has gained credibility among people in Lebanon and the Arab and Islamic world and in many places of the world due to its sacrifices and steadfastness because it did not back down, retreat or get defeated and also due to its achievements and field victories.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Resistance has changed the game rules and dropped projects and liberated captives, dignity and sovereignty of Lebanon. It also imposed a leading position for Lebanon in the region and will remain a solid fork in the eye of the Zionists and those who want Lebanon to get worse,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" his eminence added. Touching on the EU member-states\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\' decision that blacklisted what they dubbed \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'the military wing\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\' of Hezbollah, Sayyed Nasrallah said that the decision has been announced in the media without issuing a formal statement to unfold its motives, evidence and logic. His eminence noted that the EU official statement will be issued within days, and the party will see then whether it will hold any argument or logic to be discussed, pointing out that the historical course of the European states confirms that their stance is not subjected to any values. Thanking all presidents, leaders, personalities and institutions that rejected the EU decision and condemned it, his eminence stated that the party wasn\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t surprised by the decision but the leadership has expected it since the previous period. Iftar 2013Hezbollah Secretary General went on to say that the Zionists have expressed that the decision was the result of diplomatic efforts they exerted, recommending some of those who rejoiced in Lebanon to hide their joy a little bit so they wouldn\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t express the same state of happiness as the Israelis. Sayyed Nasrallah reiterated that the EU countries have insulted themselves and their principles, interests and sovereignty when they submitted to the Israelis and Americans, stating that \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"EU countries should know they are giving legal cover for Israel to launch any war on Lebanon because Israel can claim it is waging war on the terrorists.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"These countries make themselves a full partner in the Israeli aggression on Lebanon, on the Resistance and on any target for the resistance in Lebanon.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" The Lebanese Resistance leader asked why the military wing of Israeli army wouldn\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t be put on the list of terror? While the EU \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"repeatedly admits that Israel occupies Arab land and does not implement international resolutions since tens of years, and the whole world witnessed the Israeli massacres.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" He also voiced that the EU stance is subjected to the interests and pressures, not to the values and principles, where its effects are nothing more than psychological. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"In this country, resistance fighters fought the Israeli occupation and have endured a lot of pressure and sacrificed martyrs. Then you come to those who are the sons of this people and say they are terrorists. This is a very bad abuse for the fighters, for their people, and for their successive governments that were supporting the Resistance by their ministerial statements,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" he said. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"This is bad for Lebanon and the Lebanese government and people and not only for Resistance fighters,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" he added, stressing that \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"this will not undermine our morale.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" Addressing the European states, Sayyed Nasrallah said: \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"We are nationalists even in holidays. You can retake the visas you were granting for us. We do not have money in Europe. We do not have commercial or trade projects in Lebanon or abroad. therefore, this decision has no effects in this regard.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Yesterday, European delegates in Lebanon tried to say that the decision will not affect relations with Lebanon,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" recalling that some in the March 14 bloc are working to frustrate the people and descend walls on their hopes. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"This decision aims at making us bow, to force us to step back and to be afraid. But I tell you that all you will get is failure and frustration,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" his eminence told the European Union. Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan NasrallahIn the same context, Hezbollah Secretary General said that those who think that the resistance, which confronted in such days the strongest army in the region over 33 days, will be undermined by a silly decision is either will be subjugated by this decision are either delusional or ignorant. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"This decision will not be able to achieve any of its goals and we invite them (EU states) to correct this mistake because it will not lead to result,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" he stressed. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Dip it (the decision) in water and drink it,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" he added to the EU. Touching on the local situation, Sayyed Nasrallah said that the other camp in Lebanon will not be able to exploit the decision in their domestic political calculations, or to isolate the party and form a cabinet without it. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"A government without Hezbollah will not be formed, not because we are eager for it but for other things.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" His eminence jokingly suggested that Hezbollah\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s ministers in the next government will be of the military wing of the party. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"So do not bet on exploiting the decision internally,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" he told the Lebanese political rivals. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"We call for the formation of a political government that preserve Lebanon and play in the heart of the storms moving around us.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"Resistance will remain and will be victorious by God\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Will,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah concluded.

Saudi women\'s struggle for more rights is once again under the spotlight with international rights groups expressing support for them. Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have thrown their weight behind a campaign calling on Saudi women to get behind wheels on Saturday in defiance of a ban on female drivers. But some signs suggest women have a tough road ahead of them in a kingdom that has been widely criticized for rights violations.

Our condolences to all the believers upon the martyrdom of the third divinely appointed Imam, Imam Husayn (A), his family members, and his companions. This year, for the months of Muharram and Safar, sister Zainab Barakat brings us special episodes of Today I Thought that pivot around certain fundamental ideas within the great epic of Karbala. In this episode, sister Zainab Barakat speaks about something we all need to fully understand; the integral and absolutely necessary role of women in the movement of Karbala. Islam owes the survival of its essence due to the great sacrifice of not only Imam Husayn (A), but to the great sacrifice of all those around him. Salutations be upon Husayn, upon Ali ibn al-Husayn, the children of Husayn, and the companions of Husayn. #TodayIThought #IslamicPulse #Imam_Husayn #Husayn #Islam #Arbaeen #Karbala #Ashura #Muharram #Safar #Revolution #Islamic_Revolution #Women #Womens_Rights #Woman_Right #Mother #Daughter #Wife #Aunt #Lady #Freedom

The West claims to be the global defender of women\\\\\\\'s rights, but how true is this notion? Does Western culture elevate women or does it only claim to do so? This is what our dear Leader says.

Sayed Hashim haidari here talks about how the west specifically America likes to bring slogans like human rights but has devious intentions behind them. One example is the slogan of women\'s rights and how America\'s devious intention with it is pornography.

**MORE DETAILS** On Occasion of milade hazarate zahra as - Leader of islamic revolution agha syed ali khamenei said that Unlike the West View of Islam on Family and Status of Women is very Clear باید به طور صریح مبانی غلط غرب در مقوله زن را مورد انتقاد جدی قرار داد ساعت خبر: 14:11 - تاريخ خبر: 01/03/1390 حضرت آیت الله خامنه ای رهبر معظم انقلاب اسلامی، صبح امروز در دیدار صدها نفر از « زنان فرهیخته، استادان حوزه و دانشگاه و نخبگان عرصه های مختلف»، « زن» را از دید اسلام، بزرگ خانه و گل و ریحانه خانواده خواندند و با اشاره به بحران زن در جوامع غربی افزودند: در نظام اسلامی، کارهای فراوان برای احیای جایگاه حقیقی زن انجام شده اما هنوز مشکلات زیادی بخصوص در عرصه رفتار با زن در خانواده، وجود دارد که باید با ایجاد پشتوانه های قانونی و اجرایی آنها را حل کرد. به گزارش واحد مرکزی خبر ، حضرت آیت الله خامنه ای در این دیدار که در آستانه میلاد بانوی دو عالم حضرت فاطمه زهرا سلام الله علیها، و روز زن برگزار شد، با تبریک این میلاد خجسته، تشکیل جلسه با حضور جمعی از بانوان برجسته و نخبه کشور و نگاه دقیق و موشکافانه آنان به مسائل مختلف از جمله مسئله زنان و خانواده را نمادی از حرکت عظیم بانوان به سمت کمال و تعالی دانستند و تأکید کردند: نظام جمهوری اسلامی ایران توانسته است به قله ای دست یابد که عبارت است از پرورش زنان فرزانه و صاحب اندیشه و رأی، در ظریف ترین و حساس ترین مسائل جامعه. ایشان مبنای مشکلات دنیای امروز در مورد مسئله زن را نگاه غلط غرب به جایگاه و شأن زن در جامعه و کج فهمی نسبت به موضوع خانواده برشمردند و تأکید کردند: این دو مشکل موجب شده است که موضوع زن در دنیا، به یک بحران تبدیل شود. ایشان در تشریح نگاه ظالمانه غرب به « زن»، افزودند: در نامعادله ای که غرب تدریجاً در جوامع مختلف تبلیغ و القا کرده است بشریت به دو بخش تقسیم می شود: «مردان» که طرف ذینفع به شمار می آیند، و «زنان» که طرف مورد انتفاع و مورد استفاده هستند. حضرت آیت الله خامنه ای افزودند: براساس همین مبنا و نگاه غلط، اگر زنان بخواهند در جوامع غربی نمود و شخصیت یابند باید حتماً به گونه ای رفتار کنند که مردان یعنی طرف ذینفع می خواهند و می پسندند که این اهانت بزرگترین ظلم و حق کشی در حق زنان است. رهبر انقلاب اسلامی با اشاره به تلاش سازمان یافته و تدریجی سیاست گذاران راهبردی غرب برای جا انداختن این فرهنگ غلط در افکار ملتها، خاطرنشان کردند: به همین علت، امروز اگر کسی رفتار مبتنی بر جذابیتهای زنانه را در محیطهای عمومی محکوم کند مورد هجوم و جار و جنجال دستگاههای تبلیغاتی و سیاسی غرب قرار می گیرد. ایشان علنی شدن مخالفت با حجاب در غرب را از دیگر پیامدهای نگاه ظالمانه به مسئله زن دانستند و افزودند: غربی ها مدعی اند که حجاب یک مسئله دینی است و در جوامع لائیک نباید ظهور پیدا کند اما علت واقعی مخالفت غرب با حجاب این است که سیاست راهبردی و بنیانی غرب درباره زن یعنی عرضه شدن و هرزه شدن زن را با چالش روبرو می کند و مانع تحقق آن می شود. حضرت آیت الله خامنه ای با استناد به گزارشهای مراکز رسمی جهانی، سست شدن بنیان خانواده، رشد سریع تجارت شرم آور و رقت بار زنان – پدیده کودکان نامشروع و زندگیهای مشترک اما بدون ازدواج را از پیامدهای شوم نگاه مبتنی بر سوءاستفاده غرب به مقوله زن دانستند و افزودند: جمهوری اسلامی باید بطور صریح و بدون پرده پوشی، مبانی غلط غرب در مقوله زن را مورد هجوم و انتقاد جدی و بی وقفه قرار دهد و به مسئولیت خود در دفاع از جایگاه و شأن حقیقی زنان عمل کند. ایشان نگاه غلط به خانواده را مشکل دومی دانستند که باعث بروز بحران مربوط به زنان در جوامع غربی شده است. حضرت آیت الله خامنه ای در این زمینه افزودند: برخلاف غرب، نظر اسلام درباره خانواده و جایگاه زن بسیار روشن است و پیامبر گرامی اسلام و ائمه اطهار (ع) در سخنان مختلف بر این جایگاه رفیع تأکید کرده اند. حضرت آیت الله خامنه ای، تحقق دیدگاه و خواسته اسلام درباره زن و خانواده را، نیازمند پشتوانه قانونی و ضمانت اجرایی خواندند و خاطرنشان کردند: با وجود همه کارهایی که پس از انقلاب انجام شده است، هنوز درباره زن و رفتار در محیط خانواده، کمبودهای زیادی وجود دارد که باید برطرف شود. ایشان تأکید کردند: محیط خانواده برای زن باید محیطی امن – با عزت و آرامش بخش باشد تا زن بتواند وظیفه اصلی خود را که حفظ خانواده است به بهترین وجه انجام دهد. حضرت آیت الله خامنه ای با اشاره به نگاه و حرکت هولناکی که قبل از انقلاب درباره زنان رایج بود افزودند: زن ایرانی به علت گوهر ناب ایمان، بر آن موج مخرب فائق آمد و به یکی از پایه های اساسی پیروزی و استمرار انقلاب تبدیل شد. رهبر انقلاب اسلامی نگاه خوشبینانه به روند ارتقای جایگاه زنان در سه دهه اخیر را نگاهی واقع بینانه خواندند و با اشاره به پیشرفتهای تحسین برانگیز زنان در عرصه های مختلف سیاسی – اجتماعی – فرهنگی و بویژه علمی افزودند: در قله پرافتخار این روند، مادران و همسران شهیدان – رزمندگان و جانبازان به عنوان اسوه های صبر و مقاومت، همچون کوه ایستاده اند و به دیگران درس ایثار و ایمان می آموزند. رهبر انقلاب افزودند: البته این نگاه خوش بینانه نباید مانع دیدن ضعفها بشود بلکه باید با شناخت دقیق نقائص و مشکلات و برطرف کردن آنها ، روند موفقیت آمیز جمهوری اسلامی را در مقوله «زنان» شتاب بخشید و بر فرهنگ غلط غربی رایج در دنیا فائق آمد. حضرت آیت الله خامنه ای خاطرنشان کردند: عمده کارهای مربوط به مقوله «زن» باید با مطالعه و اندیشه ورزی زنان و ارائه راهکارهای اجرایی حل مشکلات انجام شود تا به فضل الهی، زنان و دختران جوان، گامهای بلندتری در این زمینه بردارند و ایران اسلامی روز به روز به اهداف متعالی خود نزدیکتر شود. رهبر انقلاب اسلامی با تأکید بر اینکه مسئله زن و خانواده یکی از موضوعات مهم برای بحث و مطالعه و اندیشه ورزی است، خاطرنشان کردند: بر همین اساس یکی از سلسله نشست های اندیشه های راهبردی در آینده، به موضوع زن و خانواده اختصاص خواهد یافت. حضرت آیت الله خامنه ای با دعوت از همه بانوان اندیشمند برای مشارکت جدی در مباحث مربوط به این نشست، افزودند: باید فصول مربوط به مسئله زن بصورت تخصصی و علمی و با تکیه بر منابع اسلامی و فکر ناب انقلابی بررسی و در نشست اندیشه های راهبردی مطرح شود تا نتایج آن مبنای برنامه ریزی و عمل قرار گیرد. در ابتدای این دیدار 10 نفر از زنان فرهیخته، نخبه و روشنفکر دیدگاههای خود را درباره مسائل مختلف فرهنگی – اجتماعی – سیاسی بیان کردند.

زن در این دیدار مادر 4 شهید و همسر شهید سیدحمزه سجادیان که در دیدار حضور داشت در پیامی که همسر یکی از فرزندان شهیدش قرائت کرد بر وفاداری و ایستادگی زنان ایرانی بر عهد و پیمان با اسلام و امام و شهیدان تأکید کرد. FARS NEWS: Supreme Leader Raps West\\\'s Instrumental Use of Women TEHRAN (FNA)- Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei lambasted the western countries for their instrumental use of women, describing the West\\\'s wrong view about woman as the root cause of the different problems existing in the western families. \\\"In the wrong equation that the West has gradually induced and inspired in the different societies, the human being is divided into two parts; Men who are considered as beneficiaries and women who are exploited and used,\\\" Ayatollah Khamenei said on Sunday, addressing a large number of Iranian women on the threshold of the \\\'Women\\\'s Day\\\' in Iran marking the birthday anniversary of Islam\\\'s number one woman Hazrat Fatema (AS), daughter of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), spouse of Shiite\\\'s first Imam and mother of Shiite Islam\\\'s second and third Imams. Based on this very wrong view, if women in the West want to prove themselves as renowned personalities in the society, they should behave in a way that men, as the beneficiaries, like, and this insult is the biggest oppression and cruelty against women, Ayatollah Khamenei added. Referring to the figures published by the international centers, Ayatollah Khamenei reiterated that the weakening foundations of the western families, rapid growth of women trafficking and women trade, illegitimate births and shared life outside matrimony are just a few of the evil consequences of the West\\\'s improper view of women, which is based on misuse. Every day, women in Europe and the US fall victim to one of the most flagrant abuses of their human rights - the right to live without violence. It might be the stranger lurking in the back alley: much more likely it is the partner, relative, friend or colleague - for most violence against women is carried out by someone they know. Crime statistics show that one woman in four has been attacked at some time in their lives and that at least 15 per cent of all European women have experienced domestic violence in a relationship after the age of 16. With domestic violence still very much a hidden crime, the real figure is sure to be higher. Other forms of violence - such as stalking, forced marriage, forced abortions, and forced sterilization - still pass largely unrecorded. Conviction rates for any type of violence against women are notoriously low. When police pick up a case, on average there are 35 previous incidents to take into account. And law enforcement agents do not always possess the required expertise to produce the evidence necessary to see perpetrators brought to justice. Is it any wonder that convictions are rare? Governments throughout Europe are recognizing the challenge, but have fallen short of action. Some have now set up refuges for abused women, some have criminalized harassment. Others use restraining orders, counseling or mediation services, or expel the violent partner from the home. Practices differ from country to country, with no clear legislative model - leaving Europe\\\'s women vulnerable to a crime that should have passed into the history books years ago. Given the mottos chanted by Europe about its pioneering role in the protection of human rights throughout the world, is this the utopia that the western society is calling everyone to?

**DETAILS** Western attitude towards women must be challenged (2011/05/22 - 20:48) Islamic Revolution Leader Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei in a meeting with hundreds of Iranian women scholars and top personalities said Islam views women as master of family, adding that the Islamic system must do more to fully revive the genuine, Islamic status of women in society and family. Ayatollah Khamenei in the meeting which was held on Sunday on the eve of the birth anniversary of Hadhrat Fatema Zahra (S.A.) and the day of women, congratulated the auspicious day and said the gathering of large number of women intellectuals shows the Iranian women were moving towards the apex of perfection and that the Islamic system has succeeded to raise intellectual women who hold their own opinion concerning different social issues. Ayatollah Khamenei said problems of the world today stemmed largely from the west\'s wrong attitude towards the status of women in society and family and that the wrong attitude has triggered a crisis. Ayatollah Khamenei said the west has established an unfair equation in society under which the men are the beneficiary and the women are the benefit, and based on the equation, the women must act in such ways as to satisfy the beneficiary. \"This is the most immense oppression ever against women,\" the IR Leader said. The IR Leader touched on an organized and gradual drive by the west to instill the nations with such wrong ideas as to status of women, and that to the same effect, if someone moves to condemn such behaviors that are fed by female attractions, he or she would be treated with western media\'s hue and cry. Ayatollah Khamenei said another outcome of the western oppressive attitude towards women is its open objection to Hijab. \"The west claims that Hijab is a religiously-motivated issue and must not be allowed to appear in atheist societies however its true motivation for that objection is that Hijab challenges its strategic policy in seeking women promiscuity,\" the IR Leader said. Ayatollah Khamenei noted that based on official reports of relevant global centers, the western attitude towards women has led to a fragile familial structure, speedy growth of shameful trade in women and the phenomenon of illegitimately-born children. He said the Islamic Republic should expressly and relentlessly challenge the western ideas concerning women and meet its responsibility in defending the true status of women. As to status of women in the country, Ayatollah Khamenei said a legal lever was needed in order to materialize the Islamic views concerning women and family, adding that despite all good works done since the Islamic Revolution (1979), there were still many deficiencies as to how women must be treated in family. \"The family environment must become a safe, dignified and tranquil one for women so that they could do their best in fulfilling their main task which is to care the family,\" Ayatollah Khamenei said. Ayatollah Khamenei also said the issue of women and family would be set as topic of discussion and research in the seminars on strategic thoughts in the Islamic Republic of which two seminars have already been staged in the presence of the IR Leader. Ayatollah Khamenei urged the intellectual women to join the seminar, adding that the women-related issue must be studied and tackled based on Islamic teachings and the findings must be followed in future planning. Meanwhile, in the meeting, 10 intellectual women figures expressed their views concerning different cultural, social and political issues.

A Eulogy for Women I’ll read a few eulogies for women. Men, you shout too. Women, when you reach Karbala, don’t go forward if it’s crowded. Imam Husayn (‘a) is not satisfied with women being bothered. Men, take care of your women so that they don’t get lost and have to look around for you. Women, when you reach Karbala, say, “Firstly, Imam I’m ashamed that I wasn’t in Karbala to help you.” Say this sincerely, not the way I said it. Weep and say it. I swear to God if you say this sincerely, they’ll write your name among Husayn’s (‘a) helpers on Ashura! Say, “Secondly, I’ve come to help the Imam of my Time. Imam accept this from me!” Women, when you reach Karbala, say Salam (send greetings) to the Imam and Hazrat Zaynab. Then say, “We feel ashamed. We were respected when coming. No one took off our veil. No one whipped us for mourning for Husayn (‘a). We only saw respect.” Some of you have probably come with your families, and the women are listening too. It’s fine if some stand with their families and take a photo. Fine. Have fun. But, remember there was a man who fell to the ground here, and his family was taken captive. Remember this! I don’t know how some people can put their arm on their brother’s shoulders Bayn al-Haramayn (between the shrines) facing the shrine of Abu al-Fazl and say, “I want to take a photo here.” Fine. Have fun! But, in this place a brother lost his brother and said, “Now, my back has broken!” Remember this too. Women, when you reach Karbala, say Salam to Hazrat Zaynab. Then say, “We feel ashamed. We were respected when coming. No one took off our veil.” Cry on the way. When you reach Karbala, these tears will have given dignity to you. When you are there, be drowned in thinking of helping God’s religion and ask Imam Mahdi (‘a.j.) to accept your help.

What was \"Mahsa Amini\'s Case & The Media Onslaught Against Iran\" all about? What is the only way that most people are able to know about what is going on inside Iran? What is one of the underlying principles of the Zio-western media empire? Who was 21-year old Shaheed Arman Aliverdi, and why haven\'t you heard about him? And how does the story of Shaheed Arman Aliverdi prove that the world\'s media outlets control the information that you receive? What is \'media terrorism\' and how does it apply to the situation of Shaheed Arman Aliverdi, the martyrs of the Shah Cheragh terrorist attacks, and ultimately, Shaheed Haj Qasem Soleimani (R)? Who was 6-year-old Shaheed Arsham Seraydaran, and again, why don\'t you know about him? Does this controlling of the information that you receive, not an absolutely clear example of the shameless hypocrisy of the mass media and even social media? How many people know about the terrorist bomb blast that occurred on Sept. 30, 2020, in the city of Kabul, Afghanistan, which killed at least 53 people, of whom 46 were young girls and women, and wounded more than 110 others? Is this blatant hypocrisy not infuriating, when so-called defenders of women\'s rights have so much to say over the death of one Ms. Mahsa Amini, but completely overlook the murder of 46 innocent young girls and women? Why does Islamic Pulse not have an official \'Youtube\' channel? Despite the safety within the Islamic Republic of Iran, why is it that many common people in the world think that the Islamic Republic of Iran is about to collapse due to riots, and what role does the mass media play in this? How do the terms \'shadow banning\', \'click farms\', \'click bots\', and \'algorithms\' play in social media platforms and in the promotion or censoring of content? What is the connection between \'Albania\', the \'MEK/MKO\', and \"The Massive Media Onslaught Against Iran\"? What are some other examples of instances where the stances in opposition to the stances of the Zio-Western empire are censored and silenced? Apart from the international propaganda and lies pushed forth by the Zio-Western media empire against the Islamic Republic of Iran, what do they do domestically, within the Islamic Republic of Iran? What are the names of just a few of the news outlets that are funded, sponsored, and hosted by the Arrogant Powers that broadcast in the Persian language? Approximately, how much is the annual budget of these news outlets that are funded by the Arrogant Powers, and how much does this official investment total per year? If the forces of evil can use social media and mass media for the promotion of falsehood, why can\'t the forces of Truth use social media and mass media to promote Truth? And finally, why was there such a massive media onslaught against the Islamic Republic of Iran as regards to the Ms. Mahsa Amini case? To answers these questions and more, we humbly invited Shaykh Ali Qomi from the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, to sit down with us and speak a little bit about, \"Mahsa Amini\'s Case & The Media Onslaught Against Iran\". #IslamicPulse #IPTalkShow #Islam #Allah #Quran #AhlulBayt #Media #Propanda #MahsaAmini #Mahsa #Iran #Arsham #ShahCheragh #Wilayah #Imamate #Truth #Justice #Rghteousness #Freedom #Independence #StopHazaraGenocide #Revolution #IslamicRevolution #IslamicAwakening #ImamKhomeini #Khomeini #ImamKhamenei #Khamenei #Honor #Falsehood #Evil #Taghut

India has the worst record of crimes against women in the world even though many people do not report it to avoid public disgrace.
