Nikah: The Islamic Solution to Modern Problems

In Islam, we have a concept called Nikah, which is an Islamic marriage. This concept of Nikah, for all intents and purposes, actually solves a lot of the problems which are happening nowadays relating to sexual assault allegations and so on, or at least to a great extent, it facilitates some kind of, I would say, alleviation of the problem.

Why? Because when the Nikah actually takes place in Islam, it's a very simple process, by the way, where the man and the woman get married, and there are two witnesses, and then consent is given and taken in that context. It's documented and it's known that after this, intercourse becomes a legitimate course of action.

Then, I would say, if someone were to say that this was unwanted sexual attention in certain contexts, then I would say legally it would probably make sense in most countries' laws that the defense would be stronger if the person has consent being given in front of two people. Islam is a solution for a lot of these issues.
