A man allegedly swore at a Muslim woman before throwing a beer bottle at her and running off with her headscarf in Perth's south.

The two argued outside a shopping centre in Beeliar last Friday night and their verbal exchange turned physical when the man allegedly called her a 'f***ing Muslim' and hit her with the bottle.

The woman's headscarf came off during the fight and the man then allegedly ran off with it, dumping it near the shopping centre.

The man is described as between 25 to 35 years old, about 175-180cm tall, with a slim build and short, blond hair.
