A thousands splendid suns.
When the Talibans invaded Afghanistan, here it started the tragedy.
Everywhere there were shouts “ Allah-u-Akbar!’ . The same message played from loudspeakers perched atop mosques, and on the radio ,which was known as the Voice of the Shari’a .

‘ It is now known as the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. These are the laws that we will enforce and you will obey : ‘

1. All citizens must pray five times a day. If it is a prayer time and you are caught doing something other,you will be BEATEN.

2. All men will grow their beards (yes the freaking beards). The correct length is at least one clenched fist beneath the chin. If you do not abide by this , you will be BEATEN.

3.All boys will wear turbans.boys in grade one through six will wear black turbans, higher grades will wear white. All boys will wear Islamic clothes. Shirts collars will be buttoned.
