Mawlavi Haibatullah Akhundzada, the supreme leader of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, said in a meeting with the provincial heads of the Ministry for the Propagation of Virtue and Prevention of Vice (MPVPV) that the implementation of virtue and vice will strengthen the Islamic system in the country, which is the religious responsibility of every Muslim.

The IEA’s supreme leader expressed his satisfaction with the functions of the morality ministry in all parts of the country and said that they should be patient in carrying out their duties.

The leader of the Islamic Emirate has also assured the virtue and vice ministry that he would provide them with all necessary facilities.

“The leader of Islamic Emirate instructed the provincial heads of MPVPV to exercise patience and perseverance in carrying out their affairs,” said Akef Mohajer, a spokesman for the MPVPV.

“The leader of the Islamic Emirate addressed the provincial heads and said that Propagation of Virtue and Prevention of Vice is one of the important goals of the Islamic Emirate, which strengthens the system,” he added.

According to him, the Interior Minister Sirajuddin Haqqani was also present in the meeting.

Religious scholars meanwhile consider the implementation of virtue and vice to be the responsibility of every Islamic government, and its implementation in the society will lead to the rule of fairness and justice.

“Enjoining virtue and forbidding vice is a divine command and every Islamic system is obliged to implement it,” said Dawood Abidi, a religious scholar.

The virtue and vice ministry is one of the important departments of the Islamic Emirate, which plays a major role in Islamic education and encouraging people to do good deeds.

The ministry has an independent directorate in all the provinces of the country and its virtue promoters are also active in all the districts of the country.
