The New Indian Express

March 31, 2025

THE Taliban leader said on Sunday there was no need for Western laws in Afghanistan and that democracy was dead as long as sharia laws are in effect.

Hibatullah Akhundzada made the comments in a sermon marking the Islamic holiday of Eid Al-Fitr, in the southern city of Kandahar's Eidgah Mosque. The 50-minute audio of his message was published on X by the Taliban government's chief spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.

"There is no need for laws that originate from the West.

We will create our own laws," Akhundzada said, speaking in Pashto, while emphasizing the importance of Islamic laws.
