Iranian academic Dr Farhang Jahanpour analyses the extraordinary protests that have been sweeping Iran for the past month.
Since the protests were triggered by the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old Iranian woman who died while in the custody of the morality police for being “inappropriately” dressed – an incident that highlighted the status of women in the Islamic Republic of Iran – Dr Jahanpour talks about what Islam actually says about women and the hijab, and how this compares with the status of women in other religions and cultures.
