Why Women in Afghanistan are scared of Sharia law?

Sachin
In an attempt to soothe a cautious populace and suspicious international powers, a Taliban spokesperson pledged on tuesday that the militants who just overthrew afghanistan will respect women's rights as well as would not pursue retribution. Zabihullah Mujahid said in his inaugural press event on tuesday that all Afghans should live "within the framework of Islam." "War has finished. "We are dedicated to allowing women to function in line with Islamic principles." Activists worry that if the Taliban retake control in afghanistan, Sharia law would be reinstated, restricting women's rights.
Sharia is an Arabic word that meaning "the way,"  and not "the law." It is a collection of moral as well as broad ethical concepts derived from the Koran as well as Prophet Muhammad's actions and sayings. Taliban adheres to a strict and severe interpretation of Sharia law, which includes public execution and mutilations. Men who do not pray five times a day are beaten by the Taliban, who have prohibited music, tv, and films.
Individual Muslims and mostly Muslim countries have adopted Sharia at various levels and with significant variation in practice. Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Iran, for example, pay considerably greater attention to it.
Women in afghanistan have been placed behind house detention and were not permitted to work or attend school under this same Taliban's rule. Any girl above the age of eight should wear a burqa and be followed by a male relative if she wished to leave her home during Taliban control. women who violated the laws under the Taliban's prior regime were subjected to public embarrassment, including public beatings, stoning, or even open executions.
Sharia law divides crimes into 3 groups:
Tazir crimes are the least severe and are up to the judge's decision.
Qisas offences lead to the perpetrator suffering from the same illness as the victim.
The most serious crimes that are deemed offences toward god are known as hudud.
