Muslim Group Hands out Roses with Prophet’s Sayings in California

TEHRAN (IQNA) - Fatemeh Nassirian of The Muslim Women Network of Southern California handed out roses to shoppers at South Coast Plaza on Saturday afternoon.

Attached to the roses are cards containing quotes from the prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and Imam Ali Ibn Abi Talib (AS) in hopes of promoting peace, unity, diversity and freedom.

Representatives of the Muslim Women Network of Southern California were at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa on Saturday to hand out free roses.
The idea was to promote peace, unity, diversity and freedom, the group said.
"There are too many misconceptions about Islam," Shalizeh Afatbi, a member of the Muslim Women Network, said in an email. "Unfortunately, usually the media … don't display the life of real Muslims, and mostly they talk about the people that hijacked the name of Islam."
