In the aftermath of a hard-line President Ebrahim Raisi's intensified efforts to enforce Iran’s Islamic laws, even more protests have taken place, this time in the streets of Tehran. The issue at hand is one that has been simmering for decades, but previous reformist leaders’ promises to make changes have done nothing to stop it: women are tired of being subjugated by religious law.

In Iran, the most fundamental questions about what makes a society work continue to be debated. While core human rights are being violated, many Iranians want to see change to their government's Islamic policies. --- The Islamic Republic of Iran is a country in Western Asia that is governed by a theocratic Islamic republic. The government is based on the principles of the 1979 revolution, which overthrew the previous monarchy and established an Islamic republic. The supreme leader of Iran is Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who holds ultimate political and religious authority in the country. The President of Iran is responsible for the administration of the country and is elected by the people.

The legal system in Iran is based on Islamic law, also known as Shariah law, which is derived from the teachings of the Qur'an and the traditions of the Prophet Muhammad. The constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran states that all laws and regulations must be consistent with Islamic principles.

The government of Iran is known for its strict adherence to Islamic principles and its strict control over many aspects of society, including the media, education, and personal behavior. The government has been criticized by some for its human rights record, including its treatment of women, minorities, and political dissidents. However, it is supported by many others, who view it as a guardian of the country's Islamic identity and values.
