A video circulating online shows an Islamic regime imam delivering a sermon in which he openly dehumanizes women, declaring that women are “animals created by Allah to be used by men.”

In the same speech, he compares women to livestock such as cows, sheep, horses, and mules, and claims that God made women resemble humans only so they would not frighten men.

The remarks, delivered without irony or hesitation, reflect a worldview rooted in radical Islamist ideology that strips women of individuality, dignity, and basic human status. The video has sparked outrage among human rights advocates, who say it exposes the raw misogyny embedded in certain Islamist teachings that are often downplayed or sanitized for Western audiences.
