Muhammad and Rumi on Sexual Harassment [View all]

From the article:

The Prophet said, “Woman
prevails over the wise man,
while the raw and ignorant prevail over her.”
Those men who lack tenderness and affection

From Rumi:

She is not that kind of beloved most imagine;
she is a ray of God.
She is not just a created,
she is creative.
