Imam Claims Quran Was Hung On Power Lines In Iran To Prevent Coronavirus

Coronavirus continues to cause a stir in countries where cases have been recorded while those that have not had any case of the viral have been kept on their toes.

Just recently, GIOTV sighted a photo on the microblogging platform, Twitter, which was shared by a controversial Islamic cleric, Imam Tawhidi.

Tawhidi had taken to his verified page on the social media platform with a photo that captured the alleged precautionary method clerics in Iran are taking against coronavirus.

The image captured a bag that contained some items which were hanging across power-lines on a street.

Tawhidi claimed that the bag contained the holy Quran, and it is the preventive measure that clergymen in Iran are taking to block and prevent the entry of coronavirus.

“Clerics in Iran hung a Quran high on power lines so that it could block and prevent Coronavirus from entering the area,” his post read.

“It may work for the people who believe it will,” one follower tweeted.

Another follower also noted that fear makes people do weird thing.
