Mosque called Qur’an burning as evidence for hostility with the Muslims and noted,” Enemies of Islam currently fight with Muslims, the holy religion or Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) sometimes insult Prophet of Islam and sometime burn a copy of holy Qur’an.”

Senior scholar condemned some countries for authorizing the extremists to burn or tearing the holy Qur’an and said,” It is a shame that some administrations issue permission for such crimes under the pretext of democracy while this is hostility with Muslims rather than democracy.”
