More than 300 rioters threw stones at police and burned tyres in the southern Swedish city on Friday night after a video circulated of
followers of the far-right Danish politician Rasmus Paludan burning a copy of the Qur’an near one of the city’s mosques.
During the riot, Samir Muric, a prominent Malmö imam, paced up and down in the space between the police and the rioters,
imploring the rioters to stop and accusing them of shaming their own religion. Muric, who was dressed in a jubbah, has also condemned the rioters on his Facebook page.
“Those who are acting in this way have nothing to do with Islam,” he wrote.
“Their shouts filled with ‘la ilaha ill Allah’ and ‘Allahu Akbar’, are just outbursts that they do not mean, because if they really meant them, they wouldn’t have acted like this.”

Jabir bin 'Abdullah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:'A slave (of Allah) shall not believe until he believes in Al-Qadar, its good and its bad, such that he knows that what struck him would not have missed him, and that what missed him would not have struck him."

Re: Riots in Sweden triggered by the burning of Qur'an by far-right activists
And We have certainly diversified [the contents] in this Qur'an that mankind may be reminded, but it does not increase the disbelievers except in aversion. (Al-Israa 41)
And We send down of the Qur'an that which is healing and mercy for the believers, but it does not increase the wrongdoers except in loss. (Al-Israa 82)
And if there was any qur'an by which the mountains would be removed or the earth would be broken apart or the dead would be made to speak, [it would be this Qur'an], but to Allah belongs the affair entirely.
Then have those who believed not accepted that had Allah willed, He would have guided the people, all of them?
And those who disbelieve do not cease to be struck, for what they have done, by calamity - or it will descend near their home - until there comes the promise of Allah.
Indeed, Allah does not fail in [His] promise. (Ar-Ra'd 31)

Pages of the Quran were torn apart and spat at during an anti-Muslim rally in the Norwegian capital of Oslo. Similar scenes were witnessed in the Swedish city of Malmo on Friday when far-right activists held a Quran-burning rally.
The OIC Islamophobia Observatory, the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC), Turkey and Pakistan condemned the rallies
