Sister Mouhammadiyya asked me to put that post here on her behalf as she was unable to do so a few hours earlier:

Barakallahu feekum for warning us, and we urge anyone who is in Lyon, or as a matter of fact anywhere in France to go see these stores.
According to their logo, I think this is a "Carrefour" store, and it is a
very large chain of supermarkets. Their main website is:
http://www.carrefour.comAnd this is the French one:
http://www.carrefour.frPlease visit it and look for contact information and:
- email (
customers@carrefour.com), or

- or even go show your outrage and demand that the flag be removed.
If someone could contact the Saudi Embassy in France and let them know of the sad news, maybe they can use their influence as well.
Please do not forget to make your sincere intention, and may Allah reward you for your efforts.

PS: this is the message I sent them today (please feel free to use it).
Certains de vos magazins, nottament a Lyon, ont un affichage publicitaire concernant le Mondial de foot colle au sol, au niveau de l'entree.
Malheureusement, l'un des drapeaux presents est celui de l'Arabie Saoudite, ou sont inscrits le nom de Dieu et de son Prophete. C'est un outrage pour tout Musulman de voir une telle chose, et la pensee que, chaque jours, des centaines de gents pietinnent le nom de Dieu et du Prophete, est horifiante.
Je vous demande de remedier a cela immediatement en suppriment ce drapeaux de votre affichage, car ceci est une insulte a l'Islam et a tous les Musulmans...
