A Muslim’s perspective on deaf congregates

Sheikh Abdullah Sikacha
The religion of Islam preaches about equality and fairness. No human being is superior to another, all men are created equal and every individual born to the same rights as any other person.
As Muslims we treat deaf people with special care. We train them sign language so that they fully participate in all our activities.
We also teach them to follow what the congregation is doing especially during prayers because they have eyes and can see.
The Quran hold specific instructions and information about the rights of the disabled.
We make sure that Muslims who have physical disabilities, but are of sound mind, participate in all aspects of Islamic life.
Adaptations may be made for prayer. Islamic resources have been made available in alternative forms and many different Islamic resources are available to help.
Sheikh Sikacha is from the Majlisul Ulama Zimbabwe, Council of Islamic Scholars
