Do Muslims respect freedom of expression of non Muslims in Muslim countries?

"Quran is not a holly book" Read it with translation twice then u will understand, who read quran they are muslim but who understand quran they became exmuslim

[control]

Full support for the freedom of expression.

[fisf.]

The point of freedom of expression is the freedom to offend. It’s the opposite of being politically correct as long as you’re not calling for violence.

[kkpat]

the only religion which spread with help of sword not peace.

[Ameya]

And if you try to burn the pride plag you are harrased and bullied maybe even arrested by police officers

[shazybear]

if the lgbt flag was burnt instead, everyone would be crying in the comments

[puspakumalasuci]

They call it "the freedom of the expression" 😒
Everything has a limit guys
Our age has the limit
Our food has the limit
And evrything has the limit
SO, YOUR "FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION" HAS THE LIMIT

Why outside the Iraqi embassy and not the Saudi Arabia. And Turkish people don't really care, they are only Muslim in name...

[coryman]

Freedom of expression has its moral limits, I know Islamic countries refuse freedom of expression to other religions and that’s why this happened in Denmark as a Pay back, not the best choice
I don’t support rolling in the mud with Islam to teach them anything,
Freedom to worship according to belief and conscience should always be welcomed as long as they don’t harm anyone physically or morally

[anni-mate]

So finally world is realizing the beauty of Islam

[windamor]

Not so long ago a person burned the Bible, a cross, the Danish, Swedish and LGBT flag in the middle of Copenhagen. He was met with very few people: a couple of journalists and the police who were there to protect him and maintain order.

Love from india🖤 and i stand with denmark and sweden😊islomophobia is dengeros for hole world

[RafikKhan-olzk]

you never find a muslim burning a
bible

[myo]

yeah but its not "freedom of expression" when we burn pride flags.

[FilmaticMedia]

Even the most staunchest critic of islam would agree that while it is your right to do so the burning of Qurans should be discouraged, are we really trying to propagate the idea that if it were any of our holy books being burned we wouldn't be outraged as well?

[Yaseen_Khandoker]

Burning a flag doesn’t burn a country. Same way burning a book doesn’t remove its teachings. Two reasons why Sweden doing this I guess: 1. They found something so powerful which might intimidate their future existence 2. They want Muslims to be even more religious by creating anger in their minds

[sherahblackberry]

I cant belive people really burning the religion's things. maybe religions dont mean anything anything for you but it is for some people

[muslimresponse]

hate speech or incitement to hate is NOT freedom of speech or expression.

[Zeemama]

They can burn the Quran, they can’t burn memorization of the Quran
