Turkey: Imam says ‘the streets are like a butcher shop. We’re disgusted by seeing flesh now.’

Halil Konakçı wants women to wear hijab. The hijab symbolizes the subjugation of women in Islam. Women are required to wear the hijab according to Islamic law because it is their responsibility to remove temptation from men. If men are tempted anyway and they end up being sexually assaulted or raped, it’s their fault. Because the hijab is an important part of a woman’s responsibility under Sharia, many women have been brutalized and even killed for not wearing it.
