While visiting a mosque in Dagestan, Russian President Vladimir Putin clutched the Quran gifted to his chest.
According to a foreign media report, yesterday the Russian President visited the oldest mosque in Russia. President Putin made this visit to Sweden on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, the day after the desecration of the Holy Quran. On this occasion, he met the Muslim representatives of Dagestan.
During this visit, the Russian President said that ‘desecration of the Holy Quran is a crime in Russia. In some countries desecration of Holy Quran is not seen as a crime but not at all in Russia. It is a crime in our country according to the constitution.’
“The Quran is sacred for Muslims and should be sacred for others.”
