JAKARTA - The Regional Police of South Kalimantan (Kalsel) is helping to provide a braille Qur'an for blind people in the area in learning to read the Koran.

"On behalf of our leadership, we handed over this braille Qur'an assistance to our friends who are members of the Indonesian Blind Association (Pertuni) of South Kalimantan," said Head of Watpers of the South Kalimantan Regional Police's HR Bureau, AKBP Dani Humardani in Banjarmasin reported by Antara, Monday, February 15.

With the provision of the Braille Qur'an, it is hoped that it can further motivate Pertuni members who are Muslim to study the holy book of Muslims.

"We also facilitate recitation at the Masjid Al Muhtadin Polda South Kalimantan. Please for braille Quran teachers who are willing to help to join," said Dani.

Chairman of the DPD Pertuni South Kalimantan, Agus Hidayat, expressed his gratitude to the South Kalimantan Regional Police for caring for an inclusive society like them.

"Hopefully the Head of South Kalimantan Regional Police, Inspector General Rikwanto and Deputy Chief of Regional Police, Brigadier General Mohamad Agung Budijono, who spearheaded this assistance, will always be given health and blessings from Allah SWT," he said.

Agus admits that the high cost of providing a braille Koran has caused many Muslim blind people to be unable to learn it, let alone own the Quran.

With a special form of braille letters, namely a writing and print system for the visually impaired in the form of a code that is highlighted on the paper so that it can be felt.
