The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.
On July 6, Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi ordered government agencies to enforce the country's mandatory hijab laws more strictly, signaling the nation's move towards a religious crackdown. Esmail Rahmani, a deputy prosecutor in the city of Mashhad, ordered a ban on women not wearing proper hijab from public transport. In Shiraz, southern Iran, "morality police" have been patrolling with a van that serves as mobile detention facilities for women caught not wearing hijab in public. Iran also declared July 12 as Hijab and Chastity Day to promote the "Islamic notion of the hijab for women." But the pushbacks are strong, both from citizens and activists. In response to the increasingly harsher implementation of hijab compliance, many women have posted videos of themselves not wearing hijab. Women's rights activists called the hijab enforcement a "violation of their human rights" and organized #NO2Hijab campaign. Masih Alinejad, an Iranian-American journalist and activist, tweeted numerous videos of women not wearing hijab in public as part of the ongoing movement. More than a hundred activists, including prominent journalists and actresses, signed a joint statement declaring the "damage done to society by 43 years of enforced veiling in Iran."
