The adhaan, the Islamic call to prayer, is one of the most distinguishable elements of Islamic culture.
Since the time of the Prophet Muhammed (pbuh), the adhaan has remained the same. However, this beautiful call to prayer has not been experienced by the Deaf community, until now.
Under the guidance of a qualified Sheikh, Al Isharah took the initiative to translate and create the adhaan in to British Sign Language (BSL).
In Ramadan 2011, Al Isharah partnered with Mercy Mission to broadcast the first televised adhaan created for the UK’s Deaf Muslim Community.
