Officials from the Taliban administration have reportedly agreed to the teaching of Jaʽfari jurisprudence in schools located in Shia-populated areas of Bamyan province, Afghanistan.

Following a coordination meeting between education officials and Shia religious scholars in Bamyan, it was announced that the inclusion of Jaʽfari fiqh in the curriculum for schools in these areas had been approved as part of local educational and religious coordination efforts.

According to a report published on the Telegram channel “Khabar-e Taza Afghanistan,” Seyyed Nasrullah Waizi, head of the Bamyan Shia Ulema Council, said the agreement was reached during a meeting attended by representatives from the provincial education department, the Shia Ulema Council, school principals, and local Taliban authorities.

The discussions reportedly focused on incorporating religious subjects aligned with the needs of students in Shia communities.

Waizi stated that the decision could help improve the organization of educational content and better respond to the religious requirements of students in these areas.

Local sources also emphasized that implementing the program would require further coordination and the provision of necessary infrastructure in schools.
