Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Nauruz in Afghanistan. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20100202150044/http://www.usembassy-israel.org.il/publish/peace/archives/2002/march/032109.html to http://usembassy-israel.org.il/publish/peace/archives/2002/march/032109.html

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Nowruz again banned in Afghanistan?

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

During the earlier Taliban rule in Afghanistan (1996-2001), celebrating Nowruz was banned in the "Islamic Emirate". However, this page claims that "During the Taliban rule (1996–2001, 2021-present), Nauruz was [sic!] banned and considered an 'ancient pagan holiday centered on fire worship'.", which seems to be the result of an (probably unintentional) "updating" concerning the new Taliban rule from last summer. But the text does not cite any source for this assertation; therefore, one could ask: has the new Taliban rulers again banned celebration of Nowruz in Afghanistan? And if so, have they also banned the use of the Afghan solar Hegira calendar (very similar to the Iranian one), and reverted to the use of only the Islamic lunar Hegira calendar? /Erik Ljungstrand (Sweden) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.241.158.202 (talk) 10:00, 26 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
