I didn’t watch the recording in full because there is a cultural difference that is not often explained and not easy to understand by non-nationals or non-orientals. However, like any society there are social classes that wouldn’t generalize behaviors on ranks.

Regarding education in Islam, not only females are not forbidden from receiving education, they can teach what they learn and examples for us were the wives of the prophet Mohamed peace be upon him.

The first word delivered from the Quran to the prophet Mohamed is “Read” (to recommend seeking knowledge, best book to learn for guidance in life is the Quran; words of God).

I hope that soon all girls can have the same opportunities to learn everywhere around the world; sadly this issue doesn’t regard only Afghanistan and it’s still traditionally kept in other parts of the world.
