Here is Yasin, a 16 year old orphan, you can hear how beautifully he reads surah Yasin in the video using a braille book we gifted him. Click here.
Ustaz Askar told me In Ramadan Yasin completed recitation of the whole Quran in his late father’s memory.
Yasin is on the Paralympic team, as the Kazakh champion for wrestling.
I started AlFitrah Foundation in 2014 because I wanted the blind to have access to the Quran and islamic books like I did. We have now distributed over 5,000 braille books around the world Alhamdulillah.
I went to Almaty bringing some books for the students at the 5th summer braille Quran program at Nur Mubarak Islamic University by Ustaz Askar Sakhirov. Click here.
I first met Askar maybe 12 years ago, this young man who came to us to learn arabic braille and how to make braille books, so he could teach the blind in his own country.
