Ankara, The Gulf Observer: If we act as one heart and one wrist, no one in the world would dare to attack sanctities of Muslims, Turkish President Erdogan tells a gathering of Pakistani expats in US.
“The vile attack on our sacred book, the Quran, in Sweden on the first day of Eid al Adha reveals the terrifying dimensions of Islamophobia,” he said in a video sent to 46th Annual Convention of the Association of Physicians of Pakistani Descent of North America on Saturday.
Erdogan stressed on the responsibility of all Muslims to prevent a recurrence.
“All of us, all Muslims, have a great responsibility to ensure that such acts, to which we react very strongly in Türkiye, do not recur. If we act as one heart and one wrist, no one in the world would dare to attack the sanctities of Muslims,” he said.
