Dubai, Feb 5 (Reuters)--A Prominent Muslim Scholar Sheikh Youssef Al-Qaraqdawi condemned on Sunday the torching of Danish and Norwegian Embassies in Arab capitals by Muslims angry over cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad.

Qaradawi, who is based in Qatar, told Arabic television Al Jazeera,
"We call on Muslims to show their fury in a logical and controlled manner..."

"We didn't ask people to burn embassies as some have done in Damascus and Beirut..."

"We don't sanction destruction and torching because this is not in line with morality or Muslim behaviour," he said.
