Al-Azhar Seminar to Discuss ‘Crime of Quran Burning’ in West
It is part of the center’s weekly seminars held at Al-Azhar Mosque in Cairo to provide answers to questions and doubts about Islamic issues.
The seminar will be held under the supervision of Al-Azhar chief Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayyeb, according to Vetogate website.
Egyptian scholars and academic figures Abdul Munim Fuad, Abdul Fattah al-Awari, Jamil Taaleeb and Majdi Abdulghaffar will be among the event’s speakers.
Abdul Munim Fuad, who is the general supervisor of Al-Azhar’s scholarly activities, said the weekly seminars aim to remove doubts and answer questions about different aspects of the religion.
In recent weeks, a new wave of Islamophobic acts of Quran desecration have started in Sweden and Denmark.
The Nordic countries allow the blasphemies to happen under the guise of the so-called freedom of speech despite wide condemnations from Muslim and non-Muslim states and even in the face of a UN Human Rights Council resolution adopted earlier this month.
