AhlulBayt World Assembly denounced desecration of holy Quran in Sweden
The AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly called on all the freedom-seeking, informed and conscientious people of the world to confront the offensive actions against the religious sanctities of others, as well as the anti-Islamic and Islamophobic groups that ignorantly are introduced as a manifestation of freedom of expression – an issue that is unfortunately considered normal in many European countries – and also emphasize the necessity of confronting decisively the abuse of the value of freedom of speech and not rest until this demand is achieved.
ABWA Official Website – Following the insulting action of Rasmus Paludan, the Danish-Swedish extremist politician, in burning the Holy Quran, the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly issued a statement and while denouncing this hateful act, considered it a move to promote Islamophobia, spreading hatred and division between societies and people.
The statement reads in part, “This heinous move is the continuation of the dark history of insulting Muslims, and it is due to their evil thinking and approach to remove the moral, spiritual, and legal values and standards of humanity, which is supported and incited by global arrogance and criminal international Zionism.”
The statement of the AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly is as follows:
In the name of God Almighty
The cowardly insult to the Holy Quran, the holy book of about one billion Muslims in the world, caused the disgust, anger and rebellion of the followers of the last divine religion, Islam, and the Quran. Unfortunately, this is the umptieth time that this illogical and anti-human rights act has taken place in Sweden, which claims to respect human rights.
This heinous act was after the recent shameless insult of the infamous and mercenary French magazine in insulting the Leader of the Muslims of the world and the Supreme authority of the Shia, which indicates the desperation of global arrogance and criminal international Zionism against Islam and the Muslims of the world.
The West, which claims to respect human rights, under the pretext of freedom of expression and with its sense of supremacism, allows insulting the sanctities and religious values of others, especially Muslims. This heinous move is the continuation of the dark history of insulting Muslims, and it is due to their evil thinking and approach to remove the moral, spiritual, and legal values and standards of humanity, which is supported and incited by global arrogance and criminal international Zionism.
The AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly while denouncing this hateful act, considered it a move to promote Islamophobia, spreading hatred and division between societies and people.
The AhlulBayt (a.s.) World Assembly condemns the use of the high concept of freedom of speech for anti-cultural actions and desecration of the sanctity and values of the followers of religions, including Muslims, human dignity and high moral and religious values of other countries and nations of the world. The Assembly also warns the Swedish authorities to prevent the emergence and continuation of such anti-cultural and inhumane actions, and to fulfill their duty in confronting anti-human movements and spread of racist hatred.

The government and state officials of different countries of the world, as well as the scholars of different religions and denominations, have to be aware of their serious responsibility in preventing any offensive action against others, developing and strengthening the basis for peaceful coexistence, respecting the rights of others, respecting the sanctities and religious values of others, the promotion of spirituality and respect for religious concepts, ethics and humanity in human societies, and try to realize them.
