Abstract :
Afghanistan since 1979 has been facing acute political, social and cultural developments such as the invasion of the Soviet army, the establishment of Soviet-backed Communist Quadrants, the sacred jihad against aliens and their expulsion from Afghanistan, the start of civil wars, the emergence of radical groups such as the Taliban, the Haqqani network, and al-Qaeda, Housing women and girls and closing school doors to them, migration, suicide and explosions have had profound and negative effects on the minds of the Afghan people, especially women.One of the highlights in today's Afghan poetry is the female character and issues of Afghan women. In this article, the type of social look at women, the female personality, the impact of people's lives, customs, contemporary government behavior and developments on the fate of women and the like reflected in contemporary Afghan poetry is analyzed. One of the unfortunate effects of this instability in Afghanistan was to marginalize women in society and politics and to disregard their rights and thus to victimize women in various ways. In addition to reflecting women's suffering oppression, poets emphasize women's emancipation and respect for their rights and they have rejected violence and humiliation against women and ridiculous views of the mass and sexism.
