Hezbollah condemns the tearing and burning of a copy of the Holy Quran in Sweden

Hezbollah in Lebanon strongly condemned the tearing and burning of a copy of the Holy Quran in front of a mosque in the Swedish capital, Stockholm.

Hezbollah said in a statement: “The repetition of the infringement of the Holy Quran in this country and others cannot be tolerated, as the Swedish government gave permission to the demonstrators, knowing their prior intention to carry out this dangerous act, while it should have stopped this unacceptable behavior.”

Hezbollah called on the supreme Islamic authorities and institutions and Arab and Islamic governments to “take all appropriate steps that prompt these countries to prevent the recurrence of these follies on their soil, and to stop spreading the culture of hatred and loathing.”

Yesterday and today, many popular and official positions of condemnation and denunciation were issued in Arab and Islamic countries, after an extremist burned a copy of the Quran in front of the Stockholm Central Mosque in Sweden after the blessed Eid al-Adha prayer on Wednesday.
