The Ministry for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice (Pashto: د امربالمعروف، نهی عن المنکر او شکایتونو اورېدلو وزارت; Dari: وزارت امر بالمعروف، نهی عن المنکر وسمع شکایات) is the state agency in charge of implementing Islamic law in the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan as defined by the Taliban. It was first instituted in 1992 by the Rabbani government of the Islamic State of Afghanistan and adopted in 1996 by the Taliban government of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan of 1996–2001.^[2] The ministry was restored in the reinstated Islamic Emirate in September 2021 after the August fall of Kabul.
