"This is an exciting opportunity for parents and children of all faiths to learn more about an historic figure like Prophet Muhammad and events that shaped today's world," said CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad. "The release of this film in theaters also offers a chance to interact with American Muslims in a learning environment." Awad also urged Muslims to purchase tickets for distribution to their friends and neighbors. Recent CAIR research has shown that anti-Muslim prejudice decreases when people have access to accurate information about Islam and relate to ordinary Muslims. http://www.cair-net.org/downloads/pollresults.ppt CAIR, America's largest Islamic civil liberties group, has 29 regional offices and chapters nationwide and in Canada. - END - |
