The five young women who were killed when an allegedly speeding SUV struck their car Friday night in Minneapolis were remembered as shining stars of hope.

They were identified as Sabiriin Ali, a 17-year-old who had just graduated from high school, and college students Sagal Hersi and Siham Adam, both 19; and Sahra Gesaade and Salma Abdikadir, both 20. The five were close friends who had been at a shopping center preparing for a wedding planned for Saturday, according to CBS News Minnesota . They were all pronounced dead at the scene.

Thousands of people gathered Monday for prayer services at the Dar Al Farooq Center, the mosque where they volunteered and taught, before all five were buried at the Garden of Eden Islamic Cemetery in Burnsville, south of Minneapolis.
