Message from Hojjatul Islam Imanipour, President ICRO, Tehran I.R Iran Condemning the burning of the Holy Quran in Sweden:
In the name of the most high
Once again, another mischief: dust thrown upon the sun (an abomination)!
From time to time, under false pretenses, with the support of the so-called ‘pro-freedom governments’, the emissaries of Satan desecrate sanctified Islamic artifacts!
This time, we witnessed the burning of the hearts and lives of millions of Muslims in the form of the Holy Quran in front of the Turkish embassy in Sweden.
This is not the first time that Sweden has become the arena of satanic shows against Islam and Muslims.
The Holy Qur’an and its revealed verses are the most sacred, dearest and greatest relic of the Holy Prophet – may the peace and blessings of God be upon him and his pure family – among Muslims.
Muslims live their lives by the Quran, grow by the Quran and return to God by the Quran. The Holy Quran is the book of life, death and resurrection for Muslims. Muslims all over the world, day and night; recite verses from this divine book, pray to God with the Holy Qur’an: sanctify, honor, love it, and spend their lives on earth by it.
Holding such a mischievous public spectacle under the pretext of protecting freedom, angers Muslims who have always respected the holy artifacts, symbols, rituals and temples of other religions from the endless cruelty and darkness of such demonic shows.
It is not a secret that these evil behaviors seriously harm the fabric of a peaceful inter-religious and multicultural coexistence while darkening the atmosphere for inter-religious and intercultural dialogue.
I, as the head of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s Council for Policy Making and Coordination of Religious Dialogue, strongly condemn the burning of the Holy Qur’an, insulting religious holy artifacts, and the wounding of the hearts and souls of millions of Muslims.
The minimum anticipation of the followers of the Holy Quran from religious leaders, intellectuals and free people of the world; especially the residents of Western Europe and North America, which has become the scene of these shameful shows for years, is to declare an unmistakable opposition to these acts of Islamophobia: the burning of Muslim Artifacts, and to expose the false and fraudulent equation of such to freedom. This is sacrilege!
We pray to Almighty God not to take us away from His love, light and pathway.
Hojjat-ul-Islam wal-Muslimeen Mohammad Mahdi Imanipour (the head of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s Council for Religious Dialogue, Policy and Coordination).
