Today we had a visit from Sheikh Mahmoud Samhoun from the NGO Imam Al shatiby in Lebanon. The organisation specialises in Quran teaching and memorisation . The sheikh has experience teaching the blind and knows Arabic braille.

We gave them some copies of our Quraanic books and inshaa Allah will work with them in the future to educate blind Muslims in the Middle East.

This is Dias, he's 10 years old from Aktau in West Kazakhstan and has been learning Arabic braille from Askar Sakhirov. He has completed the Quraanic primer as well as Juz 30 of the Quran so we rewarded him with his own set of the Braille Quran.

Recently he started attending a new school in his home town.

His ambition is to be a Hafiz of the Quran as well as an Olympic champion in wrestling

Alhamdulillah in the 3 years since Alfitrah foundation was established, we have sent over 1,000 Braille Qurans and Islamic texts to the blind in 35 countries and 5 continents.

To enable more people to read the Quran we are training teachers from different countries.

If you would like to help us do more , please send a donation to:
