⚠️ STATEMENT ON AMAZON MATS:
"Yesterday, we received numerous complaints about bath and floor mats featuring Quranic verses and Islamic text being sold on Amazon.com – which is offensive to Muslims because their sacred religious texts would stepped-on, used in bathrooms, or otherwise disrespected by customers.
Thanks to the response of CAIR-Washington State, CAIR National, AND Muslim employees at Amazon, most of these items have been removed.
It was great to learn that, while we at CAIR were working on having these products removed and educating Amazon on the importance of doing so, Muslim employees within Amazon were advocating for the same.
Amazon's legal counsel and their PR team did a great job being responsive to our input and are working with us to *manually remove other offensive items from the website*.
We are also working on contacting the companies who produce these products so that we can provide them with proper religious and cultural education so that this isn't a reoccurring issue." - CAIR-WA Executive Director Masih Fouladi
