Empowering Deaf and Hard of Hearing Muslims

Breaking Barriers, Building Bridges

Welcome to ISDHH, where we strive to uplift and support deaf and hard-of-hearing Muslims. Join us in making a difference through our services and initiatives.

Mission

Islamic Services for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (ISDHH) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization as well as a community that promotes and empowers Leaders for the deaf through leadership, education advocacy, determination, excellence and servitude.

ISDHH was established in 2015 as a Non-Profit organization to advocate and empower the Muslim deaf community, and facilitate their understanding of Islam and their integration within the Muslim community. Due to lack of understanding of the needs of the deaf both intellectually and spiritually, they are always excluded from the learning process including Jummah Khutbah and religious education by Muslim scholars, or even a Du’a in Ramadan which made deaf Muslims feel disenfranchised and not cared for by their brothers and sisters in faith. Due to lack of resources, deaf Muslims have minimal to no knowledge of what the Holy Qur’an contains or what the different narrations of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) teach us. They are very eager to learn Islam and they need and want to feel inclusive in our hearing Muslim community.

Our Journey of Compassion and Hope

Islamic Services for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (ISDHH) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to empowering Muslim Deaf leaders through education, advocacy, and community support. Founded in 2015, ISDHH works to bridge the gap in Islamic learning, ensuring Deaf Muslims have access to religious education, Jummah Khutbah, and spiritual resources. By promoting inclusion and understanding, we strive to create a community where Deaf Muslims feel valued and connected in their faith.
