In response to the desecration of the Holy Quran in Sweden, the leader of the world's Catholics, Pope Francis, expressed his disgust at this action and stressed that the permission of this act is rejected and condemned.

According to the AAA news agency, Pope Francis said that any book that believers consider sacred should be respected towards the believers of this book.The leader of the world's Catholics added that free speech should never be used as an excuse to humiliate others, and this is rejected and condemned.After the Swedish police issued a permit last Wednesday to burn a Quran near a mosque in Stockholm, on the first day of the Eid al-Adha weekend, an extremist named Salvan Momika tore up a copy of the Holy Quran and set it on fire in the city's central mosque.

Following this action, which caused a wave of anger and disgust in the Islamic world, the Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation announced an emergency meeting of this organization following the insult to the Holy Koran.
