A highly controversial evangelical preacher, Terry Johns, along with his companions, has burnt a copy of the Holy Quran today.
The burning act, according to AFP, took place inside a small Church in the US state of Florida.
A copy of the Quran, the divine book revealed on Prophet Mohammad (Peace Be Upon Him) was "soaked for hours in Kerosene" before being put on fire with a babecue lighter by "pastor Wayne Sapp under the supervision of Terry JonesTerry Jones", the AFP report says.
Terry Johns has, reportedly, said that the burning amounts to "execution" of the holy book, because it has been found "guilty of crimes".
The unfortunate burning inicident, which might put the Islamic world on fire, was open to the public but only around two dozen people attended it, as reported by several online news sources.
Earlier, in 2010, Terry Johns had announced his plan to burn a pile of the copies of Holy Quran. President Obama, Secretary Hillary ClintonHillary Clinton and other top US leaders had discouraged Terry from carrying out the controversial action.
Terry Johns has, however, triggered a fresh wave of mistrust and hatred by disrespecting the Holy Quran, a book the 1.3 billion Muslims of the world consider to be holy and divine.
