Rasmus Paludan, the leader of the Danish group Stram Kurs (Hard Line), set fire to the Holy Quran in front of the Turkish Embassy in Stockholm.

Several Muslim nations have condemned the terrible conduct, including Pakistan, Turkey, Jordan, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia.

The Pakistani prime minister, Shehbaz Sharif, denounced the offensive behavior on Twitter, stating that "the garb of freedom of expression can't be utilized to damage the sensibilities of Muslims."

Prior to this, Pakistan's Foreign Office also condemned the action, highlighting how it wounded the feelings of the world's 1.5 billion Muslims.

The ministry asserted that such actions are not protected by any appropriate exercise of the right to freedom of expression or of opinion, which is subject to obligations under international human rights law, including the prohibition against using hate speech and inciting others to violence.
