Blind.. but with Vision!
It is my pleasure to introduce to you Mohammad Shar'; a specialized computer programmer in adaptive technologies.
 
Mohammed Al-Shar', who was born blind, has exceeded the expectations of his community and today he does what most of his peers with sight might find difficult!
 
While many blind people have gone beyond the odds to succeed, Al-Shar' has even taken his confidence to a new level of challenging his disability by learning and mastering computer programming. Currently, he is working as a technical support and training executive for Nattiq technologies, an international firm that specializes in assistive (also called adaptive) technologies.
 
To know more about Mohammad and his success story I invite you to read my articles @ October's issue of JO magazine. The article title is: "Life is Virtual".
 
 
You may also view the amazing video broadcasted at Al Jazeera channel few months ago.
 
 
If you receive this post by email, you need to accesss: http://mkhawaja.jeeran.comto be able to watch the video.

Very true . I've read the article and I find it so important for those who think that the human is weak.
Honestly, I've a blind cousin who is only a year old, it's sometimes really hard for both my uncle and his wife to deal with it daily but I always tell them that god's mercy is always there and this blindness may bring him something great, something makes him feal capable of doing anything he wants.
You know, every day when I go to the library to read or even when I go to my daily classes or walk around the campus I see these people whom some o us call "deformed", I've this mate who needs more that fifteen minutes to get to class rom a very close area because she here legs aren't normal not even like those who uses the crutches to walk, she actually crawls !! my mother's son is born blind like Muhammad Al-Shar' and now he is a graduate of Sharee'a, gives religious sermonies at masjeds and you know what? he even could recognize you from the sound or the way you walk. I have a blind prof and he is more than a genious. When I see people like that every single day I wander why we faal that we aren't blessed with what we have. When I see them, I really feel their strength and try to be like them in the way they SEE life.
