The Islamic Republic of Iran’s 20 year Vision Plan, as a multi-disciplinary document, has set out provisions on the ways and means on enhancing social justice, legitimate freedoms, protection of humans’ dignity and rights, social and judicial security, health, welfare, food security, social security, equal opportunities, appropriate distribution of income, acceptable sound environment and strengthening the institution of family, with no poverty, corruption and discrimination.

Any thoughts? I found it informative and totally contrary to the western-imposed ideas I had in my head of Iran's narrative surrounding women. Tasnim News, it should be mentioned, is fiercely loyal to the Iranian government according to their about page.

The month of fasting will soon begin, and may everyone have great month.

O you who acknowledge, fasting is decreed for you as it was decreed for those before you that perhaps you may be righteous. (2:183)

"To let those who are hypocrites know, that they were told: "Come fight in the cause of God or defend," they said, "If we knew how to fight we would have followed you." That day they were closer to rejection then they were to acknowledgement. They say with their mouths what is not in their hearts, and God knows well what they conceal." (1:167)

Welcome to this new community, vaguely inspired by reddit's r/islamicleft. This is just meant to be a leftist subreddit for muslims or people interested in Islam, or leftist Islam.

I'm completely new to this, so if anyone wants to help by offering criticism or wants to volunteer as a mod, please comment or PM me.

Moses said to his people: "Seek help with God, and be patient; for the land is God's. He will inherit it to whom He pleases of His servants; and the victory belongs to the righteous." (7:128)
