Labbayk Allahumma Labbayk (Here I am, O Allah, Here I am)

The first ten days of Dhul Hijjah are the most sacred of all, even more than Ramadan. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "No good deeds are better than those done on these days" (Sahih al-Bukhari 926).

This Dhul Hijjah, support Al Isharah. Al Isharah is the UK’s leading Islamic Deaf services charity. We are a deaf services provider whose focus is to provide education, overall inclusion and equality through a number of services. 

The Prophet (saw) said, '"Islam is based on five. Both declarations of faith (shahada that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad is his Messenger), to establish prayer, to give zakah, fast during Ramadan and to make Hajj."

The British Deaf community do not have access to these basic Islamic tenets in British Sign Language (BSL). We want to ensure Deaf people can learn about Allah, pray with comprehension, make dua, understand their obligations of zakat, fast with knowledge, perform Umrah and perform Hajj.  

Our vision is to make the very basic tenets of Islam accessible at the least so Deaf people can adopt a healthy Muslim identity.

Our Services Include:

- The first ever translation of the Quran into British Sign Language

- Islamic Weekend School for Deaf Children

- Weekly Friday translation of the Jummuah Khutbah (sermon)

- Friday Islamic Classes for adults

- Monthly Islamic lectures

- Weekly Deaf social club

- British Sign Language Courses for the public

- Kids Corner

- Deaf Marriage service

- Deaf Umrah/Hajj
