The giant retailer Best Buy wants to appeal to Muslim shoppers this holiday season. Best Buy has been printing circulars in parts of the country with the greeting: Happy Eid al-Adha. This Muslim holiday is tomorrow, and it marks the end of the pilgrimage to Mecca. Some people have complained on blogs that Best Buy is paying attention to a Muslim holiday instead of Christmas. Some Muslims are delighted.
Mr. IBRAHIM HOOPER (Council on American-Islamic Relations): People have said that they're going to shop at Best Buy just because of this.
INSKEEP: That's Ibrahim Hooper. He's with the Council on American-Islamic Relations and he has our Last Word in Business today.
