Catholic Cardinal, Archbishop of Vienna and Primate of Austria Christoph Schönborn believes that Muslims should submit the whole world to the Quran on God's demand.

In an interview with the German Catholic publication Dis Tagespost, Cardinal Schönborn, when asked about the relationship between Christianity and Islam, said that both religions have felt a “call to the absolute”.

“From Muslims, God has demanded that the whole world be subject to Him and the Koran,” the cardinal said.

“As for Christ,” the Catholic hierarch continued, "He has entrusted us with a universal mission: ’Make all nations my disciples,' to follow Christ in every dimension of our lives.”

“We do not take up arms, but trust in the work of grace!” Schönborn said.

Earlier the UOJ wrote that in Pakistan, a Christian is executed for a video in TikTok of torn out pages of the Koran.
