In this video, Sh. Dr. Yasir Qadhi covers the important topic of sexual harassment and crimes in our society. Some topics covered include:
1) Such crimes are indeed crimes and sins in the sight of Allah SWT.
-any person committing such a sin must seek forgiveness from Allah and try to right a wrong with the victim (if possible)
-a person in power or authority committing such is a heavier sin
2) Parents should recognize, pay attention to signs of trouble and protect their children
-vast majority of molestation occurs in hand of friends and relatives
3) If friends and family come to us for emotional support, this is not the time for blame, rather compassion should be shown
-legal authorities should be involved if necessary
Some lessons from the Quran & Seerah:
-Evil existed even at time of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)
-The Prophet did not question harshly or reprimand the woman
-Mistaken identity is possible
-Yusuf (a.s) was a victim of power differential, but he passed the test
-One should repel the test as much as possible, but coercion (forced) situation is forgiven
4) We should, as a society, reflect upon the rise of promiscuity, immorality, free-mixing, pornography, objectifying the female (or male) body and instead encourage intimacy strictly within marriage, limiting time alone with opposite gender, modest dress-code, etc, in order to uplift the principles of Islam.
5) Anytime harm is being done to others, this should be dealt with swiftly, publicly and may involve authorities. If adults are involved in private sins, they should be advised privately first.

How I wish the leaders in this country might listen to this khutbah. Look what has just occurred in Washington... giving honor to the perpetrator of an alleged crime against a lady. She has been ignored by those who are charged to protect the vulnerable while the wrong doer has been put on a pedestal. Where is our society headed? May Almighty Allah (SWT) have mercy on us all.

Ma shaa Allah really good topic, topics should also include indepth lectures about false sexual allegations and its consequences.

[@danoneall4013]

Sadly, in Egypt, what sheikh has said, is true. I see it everyday. It's disgusting. Sadly, the mothers are responsible for this along with fathers.

Satan threatens you with poverty and orders you to immorality, while Allah promises you forgiveness from Him and bounty. And Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing. (Quran:2:268)
My opinion: regarding women who give in to the sexual desires of men for fear of poverty

[@misssimmi2]

What about a father raping his daughter? What about the mother knowing this but persecuting the daughter for speaking the truth? Is the daughter sinful for not trying to fight because she was only 5 yrs old?

[@adamdeste7761]

Zina is the only way. I can’t get married because of my shit culture and parents. I don’t feel bad.
