[Six years ago, at least four women were targeted by acid attacks in Isfahan after Yousef Tabatabaei-Nejad, a representative of the Supreme Leader and Isfahan’s Friday Imam, made public remarks about women’s non-adherence to hijab at an event to mark Ashura. “Giving a warning is not enough anymore,” he said. “We should raise the stick and use force to combat bad hijab.” The lives of the women attacked in the aftermath were changed forever.
“I never saw them. I don’t know what they look like. I don’t know how old they are. I don’t know if they had a problem with me or with my hijab. But I do know one thing very well: I want to talk with them. I want to see them, and stare into their eyes, and ask them, ‘Why? Why an acid attack? Why me?’”](https://iranwire.com/en/features/67918/)
Such a beautiful woman. How could the attacker live with himself. Look at himself ? Horrific
This atrocity is incomprehensible to me.
Terrible regardless of how attractive she was… but this is like smashing a stained glass window.
This breaks my heart…. 
What’s a “bad hijab”?
Still beautiful x
Religion is truly evil.
The attack against her was part of a series of acid attacks on women at Isfahan in 2014, incited by a local imam Yousef Tabatabaei-Nejad. You can read the story from the link op posted
Acid attacks are sadly too common in west and South Asia. Buying the acid is cheap and the effects immediate and pronounced. It’s never to kill, and always to maim. A terroristic act
Ah fuck those people. Really tragic
If there is a God he should be fired
I’ve never thought about what acid to the face must feel like. Geeze. Poor woman.
me genera un disgusto y rechazo la gente que utiliza acido
ಠ╭╮ಠ
Still beautiful
Not even acid can strip the strength and beauty in this person. She stands strong.
It’s stuff like this that makes me want to say really stupid things about the barbaric Middle East and it’s existence.
When is an acid attacked provoked ffs.
Where do these people even get all those vats of acid for these attacks?
Man, they do some fuckwd up shit over there. Hopefully they can create some change with the current peotests.
Wow, she is still beautiful. Hope she’s doing well.
Absolutely terrible. But a beautiful radiant face and I hope she has a happy wholesome life
I know this is not a good take away, but the whole Two-Face thing she has going on is super badass.
More hate towards women. But she is full of Grace and class, unlike the critter rodents who have nothing worthwhile to do.
1. That’s evil.
2. She’s still beautiful.
Wow she is still stunning
So fucked up. She is still very beautiful though. People can be so damn awful
Still beautiful
“You got away good. You only lost half of your face. What happened to the attacker?”
What the fuck? An elected representative from her city said this to her when she went to talk to him about passing laws to make buying & selling acids more difficult. And didn’t even bother doing any due diligence before the meeting, like reading an incredibly short bio that points out that her attackers were never caught or even identified. What a rancid piece of shit.
Even with the attack, she is still quite beautiful. Screw assholes that take religion so seriously that they would cause, support, or wish harm on another.
She is beautiful.
Do men in Iran normally walk around with acid in their pocket just in case they need to oppress women?
If the attack was to make her unattractive, it was an epic fail. Beautiful dont do her justice.
What a beautiful and strong woman. I can see the pain and the perseverance in her face. I want to weep for her because this is so horrible but I have a suspicion she would not want us to cry for her but rather fight to make sure this does not happen to one more woman.
I am so blessed and spoiled and a picture like this reminds me I need to count my blessings more often.
“unprovoked”???? She EXISTED with a FACE
Fuck all religion. This is so shameful. Bronze age morals don’t belong on this planet anymore, and they haven’t for centuries.
It’s crazy how beautiful she is.
She’s still beautiful
But guys listen, its a CHOICE!! /s
She looks like a badass
Today I learned the meaning to resilience
She’s not merely pretty, she’s beautiful! I’m glad she hasn’t let this defeat her—she’s able to look directly into the camera and still exhibit an enormous amount of poise and grace.
Religion causes so much harm
She is so gorgeous.
The hatred of women some people have is incomprehensible to me. Unbelievable.
