Earlier this month, four men were publicly executed in Afghanistan by order of the Taliban-run Supreme Court, accused of murder and robbery. Officials claimed the executions upheld Islamic justice, but human rights groups strongly condemned them, citing unclear trials and fear-driven governance. Public executions, nearly absent under the previous government, are making a troubling comeback under Taliban rule, sparking international concern over eroding justice and human rights. Nehemiah of FMI highlights the oppressive conditions Afghans now face, yet also points to stories of quiet resilience and faith among underground Christians. Despite the dangers, these believers continue their mission, offering hope and spiritual support amid growing oppression.
Pray for a just legal system in Afghanistan. Pray for fair, transparent, and unbiased trials in all cases. Pray for justice to prevail in the nation (The Holy Bible, Deuteronomy 27:19).
Pray for the Taliban authorities to stop the public executions in Afghanistan. Pray for the right to live and other rights and freedom of civilians to be defended by the Afghan government (The Holy Bible, Psalm 12:5).
Praise GOD for the mission workers in Afghanistan. Pray for divine protection upon all the Afghan Christians. Pray for more religious tolerance in the country (The Holy Bible, Matthew 28:18-20).
