This is the 14th year of the world wide khutbah campaign on Disability. Masjids from all over of the world usually join to educate Muslims about disability and how Islam sees it.

Allah orders us to never look down, label, or ridicule others – such as people with disabilities.

Allah says, “perhaps they may be better than them”. (49:11)

According to Islam, integrating disabled people into the society is crucial in regards to their emotional and mental well-being.
