- Rare behind-the-scenes access to the Taliban spokesman as local Afghans confront him about the failed economy and broken promises of women’s and minority rights.
With unprecedented access from Kandahar to Kabul, the Taliban’s main spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid opens the doors to the presidential palace. He takes us to the centre of the Taliban’s transition from rebel fighters to the nation’s leaders.
Charged with orders from the Taliban’s reclusive supreme leader, Mullah Haibatullah Akhunzada, Mujahid faces the stresses that come with governing a divided and traumatised country of 40 million people. In Afghanistan, human rights are under attack and the economy is crumbling.
Powerful businessmen, bold Hazara leaders and a fearless woman activist confront Mujahid about the Taliban’s many unfulfilled promises. He knows the stakes are high for an administration which is not formally recognised by the rest of the world.
Taliban Palace is a documentary film by Michael Healy and Najibullah Quraishi.

Whoever is translating for subtitles of this documentry is not honest and against the taliban, thats why he/she doesnt translate most of the stuff, specially regarding women what the talib was saying. I request aljazeera to look into it.
Happy Independence Day to India and Afghanistan.
I think? I know Al Jazeera is nothing more than qutari state-affiliated propaganda who shares office space with the Hamas terror organization and promotes lies for other terrorists such as taliban
I actually was Deployed to Afghanistan from 07-09 with the US Army. It is such a beautiful country with hard working people. I lost several friends over there flighting with the Taliban and now I agree.....Peace. There was no reason for us to be over there for that long. Obviously I was there as a soldier and at war but someday I hope to return and travel the country in a peaceful manner and visit where my brothers died.
@KingMeruem-fm1swIdiotic take
I am glad to hear your opinions @mstudios5637, I am muslim from Indonesia, and I hope, after the war is end, everyone can visit Afghanistan, no matter from which countries and religion.

They like to dominate others , so they will never rise with gun and violence against people. Good luck my friend.
Being at war for more than 40 years there could be many issues in their govt but they are settling it out in a humble way.
Loved this 22:27 “May God find more mothers like you who force us to give them their rights”
Wow. That line of his is perfect. You could see he understood exactly where she was coming from. His reasoning made sense. Divisions between the scholars and the government would cause instability, just when the country has finally found stability! Still, I feel very sorry for the woman, and agree with her.
@@TD1237 how would women cause instability by merit of being scholars? Or is it just your extreme predisposition towards sexist beliefs speaking?
@@cooltwittertag he meant the government will collapse if not supported by the religious scholars, nothing about "women scholars".
In 2.5 years, the new Afghan authorities have stopped the war, cleaned garbage in cities and rivers from dirt and smell and stench, installed pipes in cities to supply water to people, kicked out all the lawless thieves, murderers, robbers, smugglers, drug dealers, and warlords and eternal corrupt leaders of national minorities sowing ethnic strife and enmity and hatred. between people, the new Afghan authorities are implementing great national projects, building mosques and schools and roads, hospitals, heavily engaged in the economy of internal lands and waters, opening factories and factories,opening new ways of logistics with countries, drugs have been eradicated,there are no illegal armed groups, no one cares about anyone, murders and robberies have stopped There is no violence, everyone is living peacefully and peacefully, the country has really begun to make progress and develop for the better.

I am Pashtun from Pakistan and I understood the language Zabiullah Mujahid spoke in the documentary. I have noticed that the reporter did not mention exactly what he said, especially in favor of women. For example, at 6:13, he stated, 'First, we need to create a safer environment for women.' He emphasized that there is no hostility against women but rather a focus on the dignity and respect that Islam teaches us towards women. The reporter completely omitted the part regarding women's rights. It appears that Al Jazeera either missed it or deliberately chose not to mention it.
You dont protect women by locking them behind doors and if they go out have to wear cloths from head to toe to cover themselves up,,you wouldnt know your own mother or sister if they were on the street,,If women are educated that gives freedom but women arent allowed to vote a mad country

*_Persian Empire, Mongolian Empire, Safavid Iran, Macedonian Empire, Ottoman Empire, British Empire, Soviet Union, United States of America - the Greatest Nations in the History of Humankind possessing the greatest armies of their time Failed to Conquer Afghanistan! This Mountain Lands truly deserve their Nickname - "The Graveyard of Empires"!_*
As far as I know the Ottomans never tried - they never had a border with Afghanistan itself. There was only a very brief period where some Pashtun dynasty conquered parts of Persia and fought the Ottomans in the south Caucasus.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the Achaemenid, Mongol, Safavid, and Macedonian Empires all conquered and ruled Afghanistan. And the Soviet Union had control over urban Afghanistan, whereas the Mujahideen had control over the rural areas.
If you haven't realized the US wants the Taliban to run wild so they can justify putting people in camps
i thought greeks (macedonians) managed to conquer it
Greeks conquered and colonised it successfully, they just mixed over time

As a court registered official interpreter, let me advise you, it is against the professional code to intentionally substitute words for what is said, and you do it throughout the video. The speakers clearly say Islamic Emirate of AFG and you substitute Taliban for political reasons. Those words have different meanings. As an interpreter, you need to interpret accurately, even if you don't like to hear what the speaker says.
Also, what is with the annoying music?
Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan = Taliban
What’s the difference? Please explain to us.

Oh my god fiiiiiiinally I find someone who noticed these details
Thank you bro for the comment,

You totally picked up on that, and yeah, I think folks at Al Jazeera are just regular humans with feelings and their own political takes. And those views can sway how they do their job, you know? Al Jazeera better check into this, and if the higher-ups didn't sign off on it, they might wanna consider giving the boot to those employees who are showing clear biases.
Education is the most important thing whether boys or girls if you really want to grow faster and recover from long suffering.

I lost a cousin in Afghanistan serving for the war we should have never been in with them. At the time, I hated the taliban for what they did to my cousin, but as I’ve gotten older, and really understood more, they had every right to hate us. If ANYONE or entity evaded the United States we would want them dead to protect our country. But in reality, the government manipulated my family after my cousin died saying terrorists killed them, and not people trying to protect their land.
That's sad to loose a member of family because of a pointless war 😢

I agree. So sad that things turn out this way. If only Afghanistan was left alone and wasn't lnvaded by the US, they would have been allowed grow and learn naturally, as all societies do. But due to the constant interference from Western societies, they're trying to keep their country as stable as possible, even if that means sacrificing the rights of females in order to avoid political/scholarly divisions... I just hope they can continue to live in peace without outside interference. Only then can they change for the better.
@@TD1237 Agree with you but you forget that Afghanistan has a much longer complicated history than just post 9/11 US involvement, the Sovjets left scars that are still visible till this day as well
Sadly Afghanistan, like many places in Africa is one of those countries that never got a break from war and due to the money to be made there global powers were always drawn to it.
@@TD1237i don't see how allowing women's rights can cause external conflicts.

In Islam there is absolutely no difference between men and women as far as their relationship to Allah is concerned, as both are promised the same reward for good conduct and the same punishment for evil conduct. The Qur'an says:
And for women are rights over men similar to those of men over women. (2:226)
The Qur'an, in addressing the believers, often uses the expression,'believing men and women' to emphasize the equality of men and women in regard to their respective duties, rights, virtues and merits. It says:
For Muslim men and women, for believing men and women, for devout men and women, for true men and women, for men and women who are patient and constant, for men and women who humble themselves, for men and women who give in charity, for men and women who fast, for men and women who guard their chastity, and for men and women who engage much in Allah's praise, for them has Allah prepared forgiveness and great reward. (33:35)
This clearly contradicts the assertion of the Christian Fathers that women do not possess souls and that they will exist as sexless beings in the next life. The Qur'an says that women have souls in exactly the same way as men and will enter Paradise if they do good :
Enter into Paradise, you and your wives, with delight. (43:70)
Who so does that which is right, and believes, whether male or female, him or her will We quicken to happy life. (16:97)
It takes time to normalize things from what we're going through, but some people don't think the right way and always want to prove us terrorists and don't think about what America did to us. Things are going great and afghani currency is the fastest growing currency in the world currently.

Yup. And they are brutal, particularly with women. Not to mention they sell off girls as young as 12 for marriage
The line about being able to enjoy being inside of an airplane as opposed to being hunted by them was DEEP!
so is it just me or does anyone else also feel that zabiullah is a humble and handsome young man?
And intelligent and articulate
Handsome? depends on your taste I guess but he does seem like a humble and a calm mannered individual. I could not last two days doing what he is doing, in all of the three meetings he was basically being barked at. The way they were talking to him was as if they were talking to one of their employees.
I would recommend you just to study the Khilafa ( ruling periods) of the first 4 Islamic khalifs especially of "Umar bin Khattaab" who didn't even ate something that poor people couldn't afford.
Yes agreed.vety handsome n well spoken.but some policies are not so shairah.i stand corrected
He is actually very smart too like he is bilingual and when he talks either language you wudnt pick an accent and that is not something easy to achieve.
Hey Al Jazeera, I've observed an omission in the translation of a key part of the Taliban spokesman's speech in one of your recent videos, specifically around the 6:12 mark. At this point, he addresses the respect and protection afforded to women in Islam, but the subtitled translation seems to leave out significant elements of his statement.
As a native Farsi speaker, I can discern that the nuances in this section are not fully represented, which could lead to misunderstandings about the content of the speech. For the sake of accurate and comprehensive reporting, I would kindly suggest a review of this particular segment to ensure that the translation aligns faithfully with the spokesman's words. It would greatly benefit the clarity and reliability of the information presented.
In 2.5 years, the new Afghan authorities have stopped the war, cleaned garbage in cities and rivers from dirt and smell and stench, installed pipes in cities to supply water to people, kicked out all the lawless thieves, murderers, robbers, smugglers, drug dealers, and warlords and eternal corrupt leaders of national minorities sowing ethnic strife and enmity and hatred. between people, the new Afghan authorities are implementing great national projects, building mosques and schools and roads, hospitals, heavily engaged in the economy of internal lands and waters, opening factories and factories,opening new ways of logistics with countries, drugs have been eradicated,there are no illegal armed groups, no one cares about anyone, murders and robberies have stopped There is no violence, everyone is living peacefully and peacefully, the country has really begun to make progress and develop for the better. There are no problems at all for those who want to live peacefully in the country.But it's very far from ideal.
I do not understand the Afghani language completely but I understand a bit as there are nuances of Urdu. At 6:10, he said "We do not have any hostility against women, rather we are there to protect them and their modesty (loosely translated)", I wonder why the subtitles did not show the whole sentence translated.
Sadly even AJ is being influenced to not to portray things objectively.
The dreary bgms are uncalled for as well when they are making progress in bridging people's concern.
I also noticed that!
I didn’t expected that from Al Jazeera! well media is media! You can't ever trust em
Same here.
Not meant to be rude but Urdu has farsi loan words. That is why you might understand some words ( :

And this suffering is not meaningless, it builds your character, and God is going to reward you for every small and big pain and suffering you went through
@jamesg8203 because this world is a test. Allah SWT tests his slave from hunger and fear, and for the steadfast, there are great rewards and eternal gardens.
Sometimes these miseries are punishment of our sins.

This does not show what some of the Taliban have been doing to our brothers and sisters in Christ. This spokesman's face is not the face of every Taliban. Even if this man is not lying, the Taliban have not been able to control their own men. There are many who want it back to the old ways of death and destruction. But our Father in heaven knows His children and brings them safely home as martyrs. May the love of Jesus fill every Afghan's heart. Amen.
Please read about Islam without fanaticism, and I am sure that you will convert to a Muslim. For me, the beliefs of Christians are contradictory. Like the idea of Altalut and that God has children
Great reportage, as always, bravo to AJ and the best wishes to the people of the Afghanistan from Croatia!

I'm afghan and definitely not a Talib but can't thank the Islamic Emirate Of Afghanistan their goal is to serve and protect the people. Since they have taken over we have seen nothing but kindness, love and respect. Never again we'll be fooled to think that these are the bad guys it was such a loss on our part.
Still after two years of rule, the leaders in power are walking in slippers and nothing extra-ordinary, It means that they honest to their people and land, and soon they will be one of the most stable nation. Inshallah

After a thorough defeat on battle ground, *the haters have nothing else but to hate taliban and freeze the afghan money!*
Not yet.
From Morocco 🇲🇦 we're happy that our Afghan brothers are free. And the west media shouldn't be obsessed about girls education and women rights. Those men have hearts and they love their mothers, sisters and daughters, too.
Wow, mad respect to that lady who is fighting for women's right to education. This is the definition of an uphill battle. Her determination and resilience against overwhelming odds are impressive. She is fighting for her fellow women, and ultimately for all the people of Afghanistan, although she might not live long enough to see her goals being achieved. Amazing.
And spokesperson was listening patiently.
Discussion on table is better than fight and protests.
I also learned through the meeting with the women's activist why the Taliban does not want their women to get an education, and I somehow understood their reasons for that.
@@zhar9263oh yeah? Not giving women any education because they're scared of them being intellect and fight?
That sounds like medieval period for me
These men will never give up their right to control and decide the lives of others. Their God is extremely well accommodated to their specifications and giving up rights takes a level of Maturity these Afghans don't have.
unfortunately most of the population in Afghanistan remains very tribal and poorly educated and this reflects in their attitudes towards gender roles in society. Decades of war and poor government has not helped the situation obviously. At least they have some kind of peace and stability now. Even the Taliban will evolve over time to be more progressive. I hope the civil activists in Afghanistan will keep working with the Taliban to win their rights for a better society. They've got to keep chipping away at the block because cultural change takes a lot of time and steady effort by well-meaning groups of people. I wish them well.

A lot of love for Amir of Afghanistan ❤️ Ma sha Allah a great personality.
One day Afghanistan will be one of the strongest country within the entire region. And than America will come to Afghanistan with so many business proposals and opportunities. We wish that we could be able to see that day. Always pray for the Afghan brothers who died against the war with America. And also pray for the Palestinian brothers who are fighting for their own rights and land.
As someone from Africa, I feel the same way. I hope the Middle East, Africa, Asia and the rest of the world can one day be free from lmperiaIism. And I'm happy Afghanistan finally made their dream of freedom a reality.
That country has nothing to,offer economically or natural resources… it’s only use for the world was becoming a base for western nations to be located & that blew up already. Afghanistan is an inhospitable desert mountainous pit of despair and the way it’s run now only makes that 100x worse.

the thing is.... usually it is men who are fighting in wars, and during war time the men are under just as much restrictions as the women are, i'm sure if the women wanted to fight too they could, but for some reason they don't?

Iam a FBA HEBREW ,WOMAN, and I enjoyed this documentary. I hope nothing but the best for Afghanistan and its people. I just want to say that you need to educate your women EDUCATION ,because an educated society is a self sufficient society. Teach your girls and women to be Patriotic and respectful of sharia law that they live under, but Don't stop anyone from Thriving in life. Educated women and men is a progressive society. It can work. In Africa they have sharia, but they allow a full educated society...😊

For me, as an outsider I don't really know whats going on behind the Taliban politic but if there is more people in the organization like him perhaps we will see a more prosperous Afghanistan.
Thank you ALZ for this documentary and showing a human face of their movement.
The world must understand after decades and decades of destruction of a country, its people have become so hardwired that reforms will take time to happen. Let them stabilise the country first.
The people of Afghanistan deserve peace. Now whatever happens there it’s there problems of their making and they alone will fix it for their own benefit.
We mustn’t get fixated on girls education alone. There are hundreds of other issues the country is grappling with.
There are millions of educated people in the country who can’t utilise their education because of poverty.
Safety comes first before everything then other things will follow.
very true
I think it makes sense why other high tech civilizations in the universe don't interfere with our world problems
The Taliban took away women's rights the first time they had power, and they do it again the next time they have power as well as destroying Afghan, arts and intellectual culture.
Such a noble spokesperson and disciplined government style but I wonder how many people who are appreciating would like to live there along with their families
