Amazon has removed bathroom mats and toilet seat covers featuring scripture from the Quran and references to Islam.

This comes after the hashtag #AmazonDisrespectingMuslims went viral following complaints to the e-commerce site from an American-Muslim civil rights group.

The products, which were being sold by an independent seller, were deemed ‘unacceptable’ by the rights group.

The images are disrepectful to Islam

The Quranic verses and references to Islam would be disrespected in this form

Amazon, which acquired Dubai-based e-commerce site Souq.com in 2017, responded quickly and the products have been removed. But the hashtag is now trending in the Middle East and the internet is demanding an apology.

Some deem it unacceptable

#Amazon_Disrespecting_Muslims You have to respect all religions before everything and also you have to apologize to all Muslims .As we know Muslims praise your stuff in contrast you didn’t respect their religion,it’s a shame on your website and this unacceptable ????????????????????????
