Iran: Tehran’s Friday prayer leader stresses confronting women in cars

Tehran’s Friday prayer leader, Sedighi, stressed on the need to confront women in Iran over their covering and hijab inside their cars. He said, “The issue of hijab is an obligation stated in the Quran. If someone commits a crime in her car, it will be (considered as) an obvious crime. In such cases, not only the culprit must be dealt with based on the ruling of the Quran, but she must also be dealt with according to the law passed by the parliament.” (The state-run Qurannews agency, August 8, 2017)
