The Harassment of Women in the Market by Corrupt Youth

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Another says: I am one of the shop owners in this market in front of the mosque. During the day, corrupt youth are present in the market and they harass Muslim women. We have spoken to the authority, but may Allah reward them, they did not achieve the goal. We ask you, Honorable Shaykh, to point out this matter. We also ask for the appointment of Muslim youth to handle this matter, as they are more capable of deterring these corrupt individuals.

Answer:
It is a good thing, if Allah wills. What I know is that the authority is interested in this matter, and they have informed me of this. They are interested in addressing these issues. Perhaps the matter is beyond the capacity of the appointed personnel, or it is a change in the appointed personnel, so that this matter may be addressed, if Allah wills. We ask Allah to grant the authority success in all good, and to grant the state success in assisting them to fulfill the obligatory duty. Yes.
