Melaka first state to introduce 'lafaz taklik' document in Braille


MELAKA: Melaka has become the first state in the country to provide the "lafaz taklik” document in Braille for the visually impaired (PwD) community, as part of efforts to facilitate the process of declaring marriage agreement during their solemnisation.

Chief Minister Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusof said the initiative marks a significant step towards inclusive empowerment in Syariah legislation, as it not only allows PwD couples to fully understand their marriage vows, but also reflects the commitment of religious authorities and marriage institutions to ensure justice and inclusivity for all segments of society.
