Madinah : A group of 25 pilgrims with sensory disabilities from India has arrived in Madinah , Saudi Arabia , to begin their spiritual journey to the holy cities. Their first stop was the Prophet’s Mosque on October 25, marking their first-ever visit before travelling to Makkah to perform Umrah .

The pilgrims, supported by the UK-based charity Abdullah Aid, include Huffaz (memorisers of the Quran) and students of Islamic knowledge from rural India. Their visit has gone viral after emotional footage from their first day in Madinah captured global attention.

One video shows a pilgrim reciting verses from a Braille Quran, while another recites through sign language. A separate clip shows volunteers translating the Azaan (call to prayer) for worshippers with hearing disabilities.
