The Tajik parliament’s upper chamber, the Majlisi Milli, approved a bill on June 19 banning "alien garments" and children’s celebrations for two major Islamic holidays — Eid al-Fitr and Eid Al-Adha, known as idgardak. The bill, approved on May 8 by the lower chamber, the Majlisi Namoyandagon, mostly targets the hijab, or Islamic head scarf, and other traditional items of Islamic clothing, which started coming to the Central Asian nation in recent years from the Middle East and have been associated with Islamic extremists by officials. The bill sparked controversy among the mostly Muslim population of the tightly controlled former Soviet republic, which borders Afghanistan.
Why haven’t we banned it yet? They border Tajikistan and we border Iran.

because that shit tends to backfire
So, you are saying that government should decide women’s clothing? Aren’t you guys the same ones who condemn muslim countries for making women wear hijab?
Well done 👍
