Desecration of the Holy Quran Declared Illegal in Denmark

Copenhagen: Desecration of the Holy Quran and other religious scriptures has been declared illegal in Denmark.

According to international news agencies, following widespread protests at the global level against Islamophobia, blasphemy against Islam, and desecration of the Holy Quran, Denmark has officially made desecration of the Holy Quran and other religious scriptures illegal.

The Danish Parliament has formally approved the bill against the desecration of the Holy Quran. Subsequently, any act of blasphemy or desecration of the Holy Quran in public places has been deemed illegal. Those found guilty of such a crime may face penalties, including imprisonment for one to two years.

The legislation makes it a criminal offense “to inappropriately treat, publicly or with the intention of dissemination in a wider circle, a writing with significant religious significance for a religious community or an object that appears as such.”

It is worth noting that Denmark, along with several other countries like Sweden, witnessed a series of robust demonstrations worldwide, especially after incidents of blasphemy against the Holy Quran and a rise in anti-Islam activities. Participants in these protests highlighted their opposition to the anti-Islam campaigns protected under the guise of freedom of expression.
