Countering negative perceptions of Muslims and the religion of Islam is at the heart of a newly established campaign in Wellington.
For the past few weeks, Karori resident and Muslim Mohamed Anas Raheem has been gathering those in his community to hear firsthand what Islam's true teachings are over a fresh brew and a slice of cake.
The Coffee, Cake and True Islam initiative is about getting people to ask questions about Muslims and Islam to those in the community who know it best and can dispel the many myths that exist.
The exhibition will feature translations of the Quran in more than 70 languages.
