Sedigheh Vasmaghi: "No convincing evidence supports the obligation for women to cover their hair in Islam."
In this video message, which she published on her Instagram account without a hijab, she says: 'We cannot and should not sit quietly while each day one of our loved ones, like Armita, Mahsa, or another child, becomes a victim for not wearing a hijab.
This religious scholar adds: "I believe that religious individuals committed to conscience, ethics, humanity, and justice should be the first to protest against the government's insane behavior in persecuting women and must not remain indifferent." She continues: 'We see that even stricter laws cannot and will not achieve the government's desired situation.'
