Shafaq News/ The Union of Islamic Scholars of Kurdistan called on today, Wednesday, media institutions to "refrain contempt of religion" and respect the "religious people feelings".

In a statement on the day of Kurdish Journalism, the union demanded the media institutions in the region to "prevent media from sliding into erroneous tracks by publishing inappropriate topics and programs that disrespect the people's sentiment, and leads the society to disintegration and decay."

"Many channels, programs, and journalists without any regard to the professional and moral values of journalism disrespect Islam and [Islamic] sanctities and go beyond all red lines."

The statement concluded, "disregarding Islam, Muslims' feelings, and disrupting coexistence is intolerable."
