A Visit to Almaty — By Al Fitrah Foundation's Founder, Puan Sri Norma Hashim

Here is Yasin, a 16 year old orphan, you can hear how beautifully he reads surah Yasin in the video using a braille book we gifted him. Click here.

Ustaz Askar told me In Ramadan Yasin completed recitation of the whole Quran in his late father’s memory.

Yasin is on the Paralympic team, as the Kazakh champion for wrestling.

I started AlFitrah Foundation in 2014 because I wanted the blind to have access to the Quran and islamic books like I did. We have now distributed over 5,000 braille books around the world Alhamdulillah.

I went to Almaty bringing some books for the students at the 5th summer braille Quran program at Nur Mubarak Islamic University by Ustaz Askar Sakhirov. Click here.

Eid in Motion. Walk, Talk & Stories!

Our festive walk at Titiwangsa Lake Park brought warm‑ups under the trees, light steps around the lake, and plenty of Raya chatter. The “Guess the Raya Song” game sparked confident vocals and laughter, followed by heartfelt stories that made the morning special. We cherished the little moments — the “lucky” kampung guest, a first warm family Eid, last‑minute baju Raya success, childhood duit Raya memories, loved ones remembered, and Majid watching his visually impaired kids enjoy the same carefree Raya magic.
