The lessons were difficult at first, one student remembers. With help from her teacher, Şule, she learned to read the Quran by touch and can now move confidently through its pages.

Turkey's A Haber reports that two blind women, identified as siblings in the video's title, have completed a reading of the entire Quran using Braille. The classroom footage shows their fingertips following the raised dots as they recite, with other women taking part in the lesson.

The first student describes her hands as her eyes and credits Şule with helping her learn. The second explains how touch serves the function of sight when she reads, and describes the strong spiritual excitement she feels while reading the Quran.

Completing a full reading is known as a hatim. It is a milestone of reading, rather than a statement that the text has been memorized.

Şule says the women attend lessons twice a week without missing classes. She points to their effort and determination, saying their commitment also sets an example for the other women learning alongside them.
