Braille Quran English Translation

What is the Braille Quran?

It is an English translation of the Quran produced in Braille, so it can be read by touch. It makes the meaning of the Quran accessible to visually impaired readers independently.

Who translated it?

The translation is by Maulana Wahiduddin Khan. Full publication detail including the reference code is listed on this page.

Is it the Arabic text or the translation?

This edition carries the English translation in Braille. Its purpose is access to the meaning rather than to the Arabic script.

Who is it for?

Blind and partially sighted Muslims, and the families, madrassahs and institutions supporting them. It fills a gap that very few publishers address.

How many volumes is it?

Braille editions run considerably longer than print, and the format detail is on this page. It is worth checking dimensions if storage or transport matters.

Is it suitable for someone learning Braille?

It assumes Braille literacy rather than teaching it. Someone still learning would usually work through general Braille material first.

Can institutions order several?

Madrassahs and organisations do order it, and availability for larger quantities is worth asking about directly. It is a specialist publication rather than a stock line.

Why is it more expensive than a standard Quran?

Braille production is far more involved than standard printing and the volumes are physically much larger. That is reflected in the price of every Braille publication.

Is it a meaningful gift?

For a visually impaired reader it is among the most meaningful gifts possible, precisely because such editions are hard to find. It is usually bought with a specific person in mind.

Do you stock other accessible Islamic materials?

Availability of large print and audio material varies, and what is in stock shows on our Quran and books pages. It is worth asking if you need something specific.

Can I order it through the store?

Yes. Cii Stores is a physical shop in Ormonde, Johannesburg, and for a specialist title like this it is worth confirming availability before travelling in. You can also order online for delivery across South Africa.
