From Türkiye to Uganda: Qur'an Light for the Visually Impaired

The journey initiated by devoted hearts driven by love for humanity and the Qur’an has gained a new milestone at our İsar Çare Complex.

From the 1980s to Today: The Great Passion of Two Dedicated Souls

In the late 1980s, Halis and Mustafa envisioned a dream: to unite visually impaired brothers and sisters with the Qur’an. For these brothers and sisters, whose eyes cannot see but whose hearts are filled with light, they prepared a Braille Qur’an weighing one ton and set off toward Kampala. This blessed journey they began is now bearing new fruits at the İsar Çare Complex.

Institutions Joining Hands: Support from TİKA for Our Project

The International Braille Qur’an Services Union, TİKA, Çare Association, and Uganda İsar Education Complex have become part of this great endeavor. With TİKA’s support, Braille Qur’ans and educational materials have been provided, and through the contributions of the Çare Association, these resources are reaching 40 visually impaired brothers and sisters.

New Hopes Blossoming at Our Complex

The three-week educational program that began last week at our complex brought immeasurable joy to our participants. Our instructors and volunteers are meticulously working with each attendee, accompanying them on this spiritual journey.

Life Stories That Stir the Heart

The words of one of our students attending the program reveal that this initiative is not just an educational activity but also a balm for lonely hearts:

“My family became Christian, but I didn’t change my religion. My family rejected me, and only my grandmother cared for me, but now she is ill. I thought I had no one left to hold on to, but Allah brought you to me.”

Hearts United in the Light of the Qur’an

This project is not just about teaching the Qur’an; it is about embodying the meaning of humanity, brotherhood, and mutual support. With daily lessons, shared meals, and meaningful conversations, we will strengthen our bond of brotherhood. May our Lord bless this beautiful service and pave the way for all the devoted hearts contributing to it.
