Hibatullah Akhundzada, Taliban leader, emphasized in a meeting with religious scholars and judges that all Islamic countries should follow the Taliban’s Islamic model.
He called for allegiance from all Islamic nations to the Islamic Emirate, presenting this position as a model for the Islamic world.
Akhundzada, who has led the Taliban group since May 2016, made these statements in line with his ultra-conservative policies.
He has previously emphasized complete implementation of Sharia law and shown resistance against international pressures regarding human rights violations and women’s restrictions.
These statements come while the Taliban group faces widespread international criticism due to restrictions imposed on women and human rights violations.
The Taliban leader continues to govern the country from Kandahar and rarely appears in public, maintaining his reclusive leadership style since taking power in August 2021.
