A senior Taliban leader has said that the role of women in Afghanistan, including their right to work and education and how they should dress, would ultimately be decided by a council of Islamic scholars.

"They will decide whether they should wear hijab, burqa, or only veil plus abaya or something, or not. That is up to them." On Tuesday, the Taliban's main spokesman, Zabihullah Mujahid, told a news conference in Kabul that women would be allowed to work and study and"will be very active in society but within the framework of Islam."During their 1996-2001 rule, also guided by Islamic law, the Taliban stopped women from working. Girls were not allowed to go to school and women had to wear burqas to go out, and then only when accompanied by a male relative.

Western leaders have said they will judge the new Taliban by their actions, including how they treats girls and women.
