THA Wonderful Visit from PERTIS at The Learners' League✨Part 2/2
Apart from Mr Zamzuri sharing his experiences and insights, one of the humbling moments was when the children had the opportunity to experience firsthand how the Braille Qur'an looks and feels. They listened to Ustadh Firdaus reciting a few ayahs from Surah Al-Mulk using the Braille Qur'an. The Learners' League children were truly amazed SubhanAllah- they each had a chance to run their fingers on the pages of a Braille Qur'an.
Ustadh Firdaus also shared about the process of printing the Braille Qur'an - there are many steps to go through to produce one volume of the Braille Qur'an - the complete Braille Qur'an when printed has a total of 6 volumes, and one complete Qur'an weighs quite a lot, about 8kgs! This made the children reflect on how blessed they are to be able to read and easily carry the Qur'an in their hands with us, or even read it on our phones- SubhanaAllah what a humbling reminder!❤️
Additionally, the children learned practical ways to assist the visually impaired, such as helping them cross the road or dine at a restaurant. Mr Zamzuri, Ustadh Firdaus and Mr Ahmad demonstrated the correct way to assist the visually impaired. Two students Musa and Yusuff, volunteered to practice guiding Mr. Zamzuri and Ustadh Firdaus using the necessary steps shared. During the session, the children also pointed out recognising braille letters on everyday things such as in elevators or the drink dispenser in the school canteen.☺️
The visit from PERTIS provided valuable insights into the challenges faced by visually impaired individuals, fostering inclusivity and understanding within the Learners' League community. It served as a reminder of the significance of approaching interactions with sincerity and empathy when supporting individuals with disabilities.😊 We hope this experience helps cultivate empathy and raise awareness among the children about differences in others.❤️
Alhamdulillah for the wonderful visit from Mr Zamzuri Ghani, Ustadh Firdaus and Mr Ahmad from PERTIS, May Allah accept all their efforts, Aameen!🌷
