In a statement on Saturday, IRGC commanders said the Muslims will soon take revenge on all those involved and responsible for the latest sacrilege against the Holy Quran.
“We will not allow those who insult the Koran to be safe,” Major General Salami said, Press TV reported.
On Thursday, Salwan Momika, a Sweden-based Iraqi refugee, desecrated the Muslim holy book during a demonstration outside the Iraqi embassy in Stockholm under strict protection from Swedish police.
This was the second time Momika respected the holy book with the approval of Sweden’s authorities. He set fire to a copy of the Koran on June 28, sparking furious protests across the Muslim world.
Later on Friday, members of an Islamophobic group called Danske Patrioter burned the Muslim holy book in front of the Iraqi embassy in the Danish capital Copenhagen to protest the attack on the Swedish embassy in Baghdad.
They also carried a banner with insulting slogans against Islam, before stamping the Iraqi flag and a copy of the Koran under police protection, as seen in the videos they shared on social media.
The IRGC commander urged Muslim countries to take all necessary measures and strategies to prevent and end the evil policies of Islamophobia and insult the Holy Quran and the sanctity of Muslims, stressing the need for international support in this regard.
He said such blasphemous acts would only create unity and cohesion among Muslims and incite more hatred against all those who violate Islamic sanctities.
