Lots of middle eastern countries used to be more free until traditional Islam reared its ugly head and put them back centuries.
Come to think of it; Islam and the lib-progs have a lot in common that way. They are so one way or the highway they can’t be reasoned with. Funny thing is the libs side with Islam most of the time but in the end Islam will throw their bodies to the dogs when they have outlived their usefulness to sharia.

“Lots” never applied to Saudi Arabia - women have always been under full hijab covering their face, and head to toe.
But you’re right about other countries like Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, even Pakistan.
BTW, I think this picture, if it was taken in SA (looks like it was taken in an M.E. country, probably one of the more socially ‘liberal’ Gulf states) is a bit of a push on the back of a more recent news from a Saudi Prince to let women drive in Saudi Arabia.
A Muslim country that has very gradually gone backward, i.e. Islamic is Turkey. Erdogan’s wife wears a complete hijab (full headscarf covering ALL of her hair and a long coat), the same goes for Binali Yildirim, Turkish Prime Minister’s wife.
