MosqueMeToo

#MosqueMeToo is predominantly a Muslim women's movement where female pilgrims speak up about sexual abuse, such as being groped, inappropriately touched or having someone rub against them in the crowd,[1] experienced on the Hajj, the Islamic pilgrimage to one of Islam's holiest places, Mecca, Saudi Arabia.[2][3] The movement spread to Muslim women sharing sexual abuse experiences at other Muslim religious centers and holy places across the world such as at Jama Masjid, New Delhi, India.[4] The usage of the 'Me Too' in the movement stems from the Me Too movement, which gained worldwide prominence in October 2017.
