 The Rojhlat uprising in Kurdistan has been led by women since mid-September, after the Iranian authorities committed a heinous crime against the young Kurdish woman, Jina Amini, under the pretext of implementing laws that oblige women to wear a certain dress, which lacks consideration on the basis of ethnic and cultural diversity.

 In this context, the Syrian social researcher Shefaa Sawan pointed out that killing people on the basis of religious affiliation, dress or a certain belief is in and of itself contrary to human values.

 “Man in his nature tends to justice.”

 Shefaa noted that any extremism anywhere in the world will result in extremism in the same place with something else, saying: "Just as the Shah of Iran worked to impose laws by forcing the removal of the veil, we saw the birth of another extremism, which is the adherence to the veil during the era of Khamenei, and the repetition of the same error of generalization in  the imposition of the veil as a law, the idea in any place where there is extremism or aggression towards something or a particular idea becomes later the idea creator of aggression.

 In her interview with our agency, she added: "The whole issue is setbacks and repercussions. These revolutions always come to create a balance. In sociology, it is natural for a revolution to explode in Iran, because man, in his nature, tends to justice, not coercion."

 The demands of the women's revolution must be met

 Shefaa pointed to the need to take into account religious and ethnic diversity, and added, "Every person is free to wear the dress that he wears and which expresses his conviction."

She also said, "We saw when the terrorist organization ISIS took control of the regions, how blackness settled in them. Today in Iran and Saudi Arabia, blackness prevails. This pressure, if given the opportunity, will happen what we can call more intrusion than expected, to create a balance."

 While Shefaa finds that the greatest harm for any government that exploits religion by imposing its form, belief, dress, etc., later leads to a completely opposite reaction, so the Iranian authorities must accept the issue and admit the mistake by compensating all the women who were subjected to violence because of this imposition, in response  the demands of the declared women's revolution.

 Ideas cannot be imposed by political or patriarchal authority.

 As for the economic situation in Iran, Shefaa referred to it as a very deteriorating situation, in addition to the intellectual situation.

 She said that the revolution that erupted in Iran appeared at the right time, as all indicators of psychological, political and economic pressure are reflected in the reactions.

 At the end of her talk, the Syrian social researcher, Shefa Sawan, highlighted that the issue is not about a girl who wore the veil incorrectly, but rather the idea of ​​freedom that is granted to a person who is convinced of freedom in many issues, whether by putting on the veil or removing it, so ideas cannot be imposed either.  With political or patriarchal authority.
