The core of the Taliban was its rule of law and its particularly brutal justice system. It imposed a strict version of sharia law, outlawing things like television and music and even imprisoning men who did not have proper facial hair. Its treatment of women was particularly severe, requiring that women wear a head-to-toe burqa and permitting the abuse of women who did not abide by their laws. The Afghanistan Taliban also did not provide any social services or complete any other state functions that a different government would.
