Sweden: Request filed to burn Torah, Bible outside Israeli embassy
The request follows the burning on a Quran outside a mosque in Stockholm, sparking backlash across the Muslim world

Police in Stockholm received a request on Wednesday to burn a Torah scroll and the Bible in front of the Israeli embassy, following the burning of a Quran outside a mosque in the Swedish capital that prompted harsh condemnation across the Muslim world.
Authorities told Sweden’s national public broadcaster SVT that behind the request to burn the Jewish and Christian holy books on July 15 was a man in his 30s, who said it would be in response to the Quran burning last week and meant “as a symbolic statement for freedom of expression.”
“I am shocked and horrified by the prospect of the burning of more books in Sweden, be it the Quran, the Torah, or any other holy book,” Israel’s Ambassador to Sweden, Ziv Nebo Coleman, tweeted.
“This is clearly an act of hatred that must be stopped.”
Another request to burn a Quran “as soon as possible” in Stockholm was submitted by a woman in her 50s. Police do not immediately rule out either request, saying any application is reviewed on an individual basis.

Turkey burned a lot of books they did not like since the failed coup.
Apparently Turkey thinks it is OK to burn some books, but not other books.

I am not talking about Turkey - Islam forbids... PEROID.....

 

[Ali_Baba]

I find the burning of any religious text, objectionable .. this is a bit sad to me..

 

[waz]

Not filed by a Muslim. We accept the bible and Torah as holy text.

 

[A.P. Richelieu]

I am not talking about Turkey - Islam forbids... PEROID.....

So when is the Islamic Council going to sanction the Turkey government for actually ordering burning books?
The Swedish government has not ordered the burning of books, but still Sweden is punished for allowing burning books.

Irrelevant - What Turkey does or does not have anything to do with what Quran says just like 30K homicides in the US have nothing to do with their constitution.

 

[Cheepek]

So they did allow burning Torah, now what's next?

it certainly reeks of double standards.

 

[Finer]

Burning Quran doesn't stop people from converting to Islam so calm down and leave it to ALLAAH. Indeed ALLAAH is best planner of all, Alhamdulillah.

 

[K_Bin_W]

it certainly reeks of double standards.

Like the Western world condemns the US for global terrorism - It definitely is.

 

[ProudThamizhan]

As a Muslim we wouldn't support harm to any religious text book including idol worshipers. Islam respects everyone and everyone's religious books. Insult is not a tool of influence in my toolkit.

You cannot convert a Non-Muslim by insulting their deities. Allah has forbidden you from insulting false deities, lest they would do the to your True God.

But in the process of delivering this message you have yourself insulted the deities by calling them false. You were probably repeating the adjective as you heard or read but if you really meant this msg you should repair that language

We are living probably the end of the times... World must respect believers, and must not be tolerated this aggression to people that has faith,being muslims, cristians or jews.

Burning holy books is haram, and Sweden and Denmark must understand this, this is not civilized and cannot be tolerated as a freedom act. Not anything is permissible.

 

[ReasonableStar75]

They should let Muslims burn Torah.

No, this is what they want. Don t be foolish, muslims respect believers.

Why do you think this same couple of people try to get public attention burning the quran?

 

[A.P. Richelieu]

Like the Western world condemns the US for global terrorism - It definitely is.

State do not do terrorism by definition.
They work within a legal framework.
US actions are widely criticized by the West when they are wrong
so you are simply trying to deflect the issue with whataboutism.

”Holyness” is not an absolute thing. You may believe something is holy, and other people may not believe that they are holy.
The Christians believe the cross is holy. Yet Muslims burn a flag with this ”holy” symbol. How will Muslim countries punish those that insult Christianity by burning Christian symbols?

Calling someone false is not an insult but the stance and the statement becomes complete when the Quran also tells us what's the right path instead. Its a foundation upon which monotheism is based: One True God, Who's Unique, Matchless, Incomparable Supreme.

Before a judge or in any debate that's how you approach with the evidence of your Truth and evidence of falsehood of other side. But if you'd say you are right and other side is right too... what's left to convince the other side to?

Do you see the point?
