People protesting against the desecration of the Holy Quran in Sweden across Pakistan on July 7, 2023. JUI-F Central Deputy Secretary General Maulana Amjad Khan said the officially patronized desecration of the Holy Quran in Sweden was open terrorism and result of state support of Islamophobia in Europe. Addressing the protesters, Qari Zawar Bahadur said desecration of the Holy Quran and Holy Prophet (SAW) was intolerable as the Muslims would rather die than remain silent. The OIC secretary general echoed Pakistan’s condemnation and concerns about the despicable incidents of the public desecration of the Holy Quran. The resolution further stated that the Holy Quran held immense significance to millions of Muslims around the world as a source of spiritual guidance, moral teaching, and divine revelation.
