A very painful incident took place in Stockholm, Sweden. So the incident happened that it was the time of Bakra Eid and a man stood behind the police officers outside the central mosque of Stockholm. The poor man's name was Salwan Momika and he had white earpods in his ears, he had a cigarette and he was burning the Holy Quran with his lighter, he martyred the Holy Quran and dropped it on the ground and desecrated it.

Background of Salwan Momika

Readers this disgusting man was an Iraqi citizen who was a refugee in Sweden.. But one thing to consider here is that he did not speak Swedish but he was speaking in Arabic.

About 200 people present at the venue made fun of him and ignored him completely. Some people complained to the police not to defend such people to discourage them.


Earlier in Sweden

 Readers this is not the first incident of desecration of Islam in Sweden Earlier, Rasmus Plouden, a member of the Far-Religious Danish People's Party, had desecrated the Holy Quran in September 2020 .and He uploaded the video of the incident on his Facebook page. 

These people know how much Muslims are detached from their religion, That is why they want to provoke Muslims by doing such depraved actions.


Response Of Muslims


Now let's talk about what Muslims can do in response to such incidents.

Apparently, these incidents prove that these people want to achieve political goals by defaming Islam. Therefore, we should deal with such people wisely instead of showing anger.

  1. First of all, all the Muslim countries need to be brought together. Despite the bad events, there is no emergency meeting of similar organizations like OIC..Guess where our priorities are going.

  2. Second, we need to advocate to the world that Islam is truly a safe religion and no one can be harmed by it.. But we can only fix ourselves..Because we know that Action speaks louder than words.

  3. Lastly we should not allow these people to succeed in their goal by igniting such events.Damaging property and being angry is forbidden in Islam. We need to show the world as exemplary ambassadors of Islam with the strength of our faith.

Readers: That's it for today's article. Hope this discussion covers the Swedish incident.
