Damascus, SANA- The Union of Scholars of the Levant Friday condemned the act of burning copies of the holy book of Qur’an at the hands of extreme right groups in Sweden, denouncing all these abuses that come within the frenzied hostility campaigns towards it.
“That shameful act which doesn’t usually come as a single event, rather it comes as a link in a chain of the hatred towards the Qur’an and the Prophet Muhammed, PBUH, ranging from offensive cartoons, satirical films, racism statements, reaching to desecration of sanctities and storming the worship places as the Zionists do in the Al-Aqsa Mosque in al-Quds.” the Union said in a statement.
The Union added that those successive abuses in the Holy month of Ramadan reveal to the world that the freedom mottos claimed by the West are nothing but lies whose effect stops when they don’t serve its interests revealing its real face hostile to goodness, mercy and humanity.
It concluded by asserting the deeply- rooted truth that is stable in the hearts of all believers that the Holy Qur’an is preserved by God, saying that the fire they set into Qur’an copies will only increase the Muslims faith and glory to the holy book.
