Islamabad: Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani wrote to Swedish Parliament Speaker Andreas Norlen concerning Quran destruction.
In the letter, the Senate chairman urged the Swedish parliament to promote interfaith tolerance and end Islamophobia.
“As representatives of our people, we must guide and educate our people, fostering an environment that encourages tolerance, respect, and empathy among different faiths, religions, and communities,” the Senate chairman wrote on Tuesday.
Moreover, If you [Swedish speaker] deem fit, I can travel to the Kingdom of Sweden to address the Riksdag and dispel any misconceptions about Islam,” Sanjrani said. Regional and global stability requires interfaith harmony.
In this global village, there is no excuse for abusing and destruction of holy individuals, scriptures, and religious sentiments.
Morover, He complimented Sweden for “making it unequivocally clear that such actions not reflective of Swedish state policies. As well as, are rightly condemned as Islamophobic”.
Moreover, World peace, tolerance, and interfaith concord seem far away. I represent a nation deeply committed to these principles. Legislators and world leaders can do much to prevent such actions that can destabilize world peace,” he added.
While, Sanjrani said Muslims must accept all Abrahamic prophets and their scriptures.
Moreover, This the respect and stature of other religions in Islam, yet frequent Islamophobic incidents prevail and often swept under the rug in the guise of freedom of expression,” he stated.
Disrespecting Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the Quran hurts Muslims, he added.
“We must recognise and prevent such acts.”
