Sad news

It's disheartening to see students punished for expressing their views. Education should encourage critical thinking, not stifle it.

Elite Iran university expels students over alleged protest roles: local media

TEHRAN: Iran’s top engineering university has expelled six students over their alleged involvement in anti-government protests earlier this year, local media reported. What began in December as cost-of-living protests escalated into anti-establishment demonstrations across the country that peaked in January, though smaller rallies continued on campuses in the weeks that followed. “The Disciplinary Committee of Sharif University of Technology, in separate preliminary rulings, expelled six students for their alleged roles in the unrest of February,” Fars news agency reported.

What exactly happened? Hard to form an opinion without details, but punishing students just for speaking up never sits right with me.

Sad indeed. In many places, they want obedient workers, not thinkers. May Allah guide those in charge to justice.

Bro, I feel you. But we must also remember adab. Expressing views is one thing, disrespect is another. Need to know context.
