Arabic calligraphy is a unique form of expression and has been a major part of Arab and Islamic culture for centuries. Its use has spread from inscriptions adorning mosques, to private residences and monuments, to modern graphic design, and digital media elements.

 

It is a craft that has been valued for its beauty and ability to communicate spiritual messages through its visual representation and interpretation of the written word. The various forms of Arabic calligraphy have been influenced by different eras, cultures, and regions and have evolved through the history of Islamic Art.

The earliest Islamic calligraphic works were inspired by the Kufic script, the oldest script known in the Arab world. Kufic is an angular script with a predominantly vertical direction and is characterized by simple and thick strokes. Other forms of Arabic calligraphy evolved from this script, such as semi-Kufic, Thuluth, Naskh, Ta’liq, and others.
