The Jamiat-e-Islami party has said that in the 1990s, the Taliban had set a precondition for banning women's education and work to stop the war against the Islamic State led by Burhanuddin Rabbani.
The party wrote that Rabbani had explicitly rejected the Taliban's offer at the time, citing religious reasons.
In a statement on Thursday, on the eve of the 13th anniversary of the assassination of the party's leader, Burhanuddin Rabbani, the Jamiat-e-Islami Party of Afghanistan wrote that Rabbani had rejected the Taliban's proposal, stressing that he would "not succumb to illegitimate and irrational proposals and will remain committed to resistance against this group”.
Currently, anti-moderation is spreading in Afghanistan, and the people are once again under the onslaught of "increasing oppression, ignorance, extremism and criminal bigotry,” the statement said.
The Jamiat-e-Islami Party has emphasised that it remains committed to the programmes and ideals of Burhanuddin Rabbani and considers following political thought and a way of life based on moderation and peaceful coexistence as a serious necessity in the current situation.
Burhanuddin Rabbani, head of the Mujahideen government and head of Afghanistan's High Peace Council, was killed in a suicide attack in Kabul on September 20, 2011. He was assassinated by people who were supposedly carrying a "special message" from the Taliban.
