REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- The Ministry of Religious Affairs has compiled a Quran for disable. For this purpose, the National Zakat Board (Baznas) cooperates with the Institute of Quran Science (IIQ), conducts Training of Trainers (ToT) or special training for prospective teachers.

Rector of IIQ Nadjematul Faizah expressed his gratitude for this opportunity, involved in providing the benefit of Quran teaching to the disabled. According to Faizah, all human beings have an equal position before Allah, except the handicapped. What distinguishes the position of men from one another, he said, is only the degree of their devotion to Allah.

“So this event is certainly very useful, the disabled also have the same opportunity (with us), thank God with this new technology or science, it is an opportunity to give Quran lessons to our deaf brothers,” said Faizah at Pondok Pesantren Takhassus IIQ Jakarta, in Pamulang, South Tangerang, Wednesday (20/12/2023).

The training of teachers and educators for people with sensory-impaired speech hearing, is planned to be held for two days. Which, in fact, Faizah thinks is sorely lacking, because in IIQ itself, he said, this teaching required 16 meetings.
