Apparently, women visitors to Iran must now cover themselves just like the slaves of Allah or risk being arrested by the Morality Police

As Iran heats up this summer, the morality police are cracking down harder than ever on those who disobey the Islamic dress code. If you happen to be in Tehran as a tourist or on business, you had best comply with the code, or the morality police will throw you in jail, where you can count on being raped, beaten, and tortured.

 Downtown Express In Iran, when a woman steps outside her house, she has two choices: She can wear the chador — a long usually black cloak worn over the head and body, which, covering several layers of clothing, is kept in place by clutching it in one’s hands or holding the loose ends in one’s teeth.

Or she can chose the manteau — a shoulder-padded, dark coloured, shapeless trench coat worn over long pants. Her hair must be entirely covered either with a scarf firmly tied or a maghneh, a hooded head covering, often worn by students.

The Islamic dress code, imposed by the 1979 revolution, mandates that from the start of menstruation, a woman outside of her home or in the presence of an unrelated man must completely cover her hair and neck and wear long, loose-fitting clothing to hide the contours of her body, as well as her arms and legs. Any woman found to be “badly veiled” can by arrested and jailed by the morality police.Checkpoints run by the morality police have mushroomed all over Tehran and, residents say, it’s not uncommon to see women getting violently stuffed into one of their ubiquitous vans.

The Daily Beast  In summer, the morality police come out in droves to make sure the citizenry isn’t flashing too much skin or acting in other inappropriate ways. Since June, 2011, 70,000 morality police have been sent out into the streets of Tehran alone.

The red line on what is deemed acceptable can seem arbitrary at times, and over the years the morality police have disproportionately targeted women since they’re required by law to cover themselves from head to toe. Chalk one up for gender equality last year when the morality police issued new guidelines for men’s haircuts. No more mullets, ponytails, or a popular hairstyle called the rooster, which swoops up in a faux-hawk in the front and flares out at the back. And there’s a new restriction for men this summer: no necklaces.

The government has not only spelled out the crackdown in legal terms, but has also tried to make the case that inappropriate clothing can be directly linked to damnation. Last week, an analyst named Ali Akbar Raefipour, appeared on state television and claimed that the word “jeans” actually comes from the word “jinn,” which are supernatural beings that can fly and take the form of animals. He took it a step further by comparing women’s high heels to the hooves of demons.

Still, if the spiritual warnings didn’t grab the attention of miscreants, the heavy fines just might. A list of common fines for women, posted on some opposition websites, include: wearing sunglasses above your headscarf ($15), wearing a tunic covering that’s too short ($30), wearing a tunic with bright colors ($30), wearing nail polish ($5 per finger), having tan skin ($23) and having hair that’s been lightened ($15 to $45).

This is what happens to a woman in jail for refusing to cover her head:

For ordinary Iranians, the evidence of the crackdown is in plain sight. Checkpoints run by the morality police have mushroomed all over Tehran and, residents say, it’s not uncommon to see women getting man-handled and stuffed into one of their ubiquitous vans.

Soheila, a 28-year old Tehran resident, has had enough. “I was even with my husband one time when a policewoman gave me a warning about bad hijab,” she says. “I’m going to start wearing the chador [a head-to-toe cloth covering] because I’m afraid of the morality police.”

As Iranians sweat it out in the summer heat, another season of harassment continues. But at least one courageous young Iranian woman (below) fought back…she WON. Hopefully she is not in jail now.

  1. That young woman is amazing to stand in the face of the evil they did to her. They not only damaged her physically, but also mentally!!!! I hope and pray that she is no longer living in the hellhole they call “Iran!.”

  2. The question to me is WHY in hell would anyone WANT to go to that festering pit of excrement? I would re-route through five countries if need be, rather than defile my shoes by stepping into a muslim place.
    Now, if I were a young man, I MIGHT defile a pair of combat boots to clean up a place like that…

  3. Only an idiot would go to iran for a holiday, it’s not exactly a tourist destination anyway. You’d have more fun and freedom watching the penguins at the south pole, even with the cute and cuddly polar bears nearby.

  4. The religion of peace? Now you know why they want to control the net. This video needs to be shown to women that are thinking about becoming a mohommedist. Whenever a gathering of these low life’s, start talking, about peace show this for justice for women.
    By the way where are all the women Libbers screaming about all the nasty things men do to them in the USA and elsewhere except in the mohommedist countries. What a bunch of hypocrites. The lies and cover-ups are mounting higher and higher. Time for things to move on. So create a new problem so our eyes are deflected from the real problem. Mohommedism.
    BEWARE.

  5. Who in they their right mind would want to go there? I feel terrible about what those adherents to the “Religion of Peace” did to that woman in the fourth video…disgusting, vile creatures these muzztard men!

  6. These people are so completely off their heads! So now jeans and high heels would be jinns & demon hooves?! Coming from evil worshipers? Would be funny if not so pathetically idiotic!

  7. Right on ICE!

    The video of the raped woman. Its to bad that that woman had to see the inside of a prison to realize how bad islam is. The good part is she can tell her story, and hopefully others will wake up too.

  8. That Muslim “expert” doesn’t know what he is talking about as to the origin of the word “jeans.” According to Wikipedia, the word “jeans” comes from “genuese” meaning from Genoa, Italy, where the cloth denim was first manufactured. It was intended as an imitation of corduroy (which itself comes from the French, “cord du roi” = literally, the “cloth of kings”)

    Etymology aside, my guess though is that during the hot summer, the jinns will be out in force seducing both men and women to bare their legs and cool off in the hot summer weather. Shaitan, a jinn himself, likes to get people naked.

    For those who want to know, a jinn is rather like a demon or a faerie in Western folklore. They are said to be made of the primal element of fire. (Angels are said to be made of light.) Sometimes jinns are said to be able to possess people, but mostly they are like faeries. They have human characteristics and can assume physical forms. Like faeries, which can be both good and evil, there are good and evil jinns. They are able to interact with the physical world and with humans. They are said to be capable of reproduction. They are said to be responsible for all sorts of mischief.

    Shaitan is said to be an evil jinn and one of the oldest jinns. He is considered synonymous with the Biblical Satan. And he is described as a michief maker who distracts Muslims from the devout life by tying knots in their hair and beards while they sleep, molesting people sexually while they sleep, sending distracting thoughts to Muslims while they pray, playing with their behinds while they are in the toilet, farting during Muslim prayers, pulling hairs from their butt cracks during prayers, etc.

    And there are many Shaitans too, not just one.

    According to the Quran, (17:61-65) when God created Adam, he ordered all the angels (and presumably jinns too) to bow and do homage to Adam, but Shaitan refused saying that his love to God was greater, so God banished him. So Shaitan has been at enmity with the human race ever since.

    Shaitan also has an unusual method of reproduction. According to one commentary of the Quran, Shaitan has the male member in his right thigh, and the female member in his left thigh, and he places his thighs together and couples them and thus lays eggs and produces more jinns and Shaitans.

    • This is supposed to be a world class religion. More like the speculations of sex obcessed retarded 12 year boys.

  9. How long can it be until the longsuffering Persians overthrow this foreign-imposed death cult?

    There will be rivers of blood when it boils over. The mullahs will not be spared for what they have done. The mullahs are betraying their own people.

  10. I remember one of the first targets when the northern alliance took Kabul was the Vice and Virtue Police. A lot of them were lynched from the nearest available power pylon or electrolier and left for birds to eat.

  11. Watching the bitch in the first video was more than I could stand.
    Instructions from a retard on how to wear a body bag is beyond ridiculous.

    Mankind is doomed. Unless these vermin start outlawing video games,movies,tv,music our dolts will never wake up and smell the coffee.

  12. what’s good for the goose is good for the gander. the men should wear the exact same outfit. From head to toe.
