The head of an institution is a guardian of its interests and is responsible for it religiously and worldly. His duty is to advise the workers and guide them to good and prevent them from evil. He must take the necessary measures to prevent the appearance of immodestly dressed women on channels affiliated with his ministry, and strive to prevent channels that broadcast atheism and immorality. He should also provide female employees with work that allows them to preserve their religion.
