TEHRAN – Iranians across the country took to the streets on Friday to condemns the desecration of the Holy Quran in some European countries.
The rallies were held after the Coordinative Council of Islamic Propagation called on Iranians all over the country to rally after the Friday Prayer to denounce the desecration of the Holy Quran.
Thousands of Iranians held demonstrations across the country to condemn the desecration of the Holy Quran, Tasnim reported.
Following the Friday prayers, worshipers gathered across Iran, marched in rallies, and chanted slogans, condemning the insult to the divine book, Tasnim said.
On Monday, a Dutch politician tore apart a copy of the Holy Quran in the city of The Hague. It followed an incident in Sweden where a politician burned a copy of the Quran outside the Turkish embassy.
The politician committed the scandalous act after receiving permission from Swedish authorities who provided police guards to ensure nobody prevented it.
The outrageous acts have drawn strong condemnation from Muslims, with many states such as Iran, Pakistan, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates denouncing the provocative and Islamophobic move.
