I figured

When I hear these horrible stories about blown-up girls' schools and stonings I assume that the perpetrators are twisting basic guidelines for domestic roles and morals but then I really have no idea. I guess I'm asking: what are the basic tenets that inspire the extremists against education and equality for women?

And, surely there are some positive passages about the role or status of women in the basic tenets but we never hear them. What are they?
