Islamic Calligraphy — Design 07

The Bismillah, Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Raheem, curls into an elegant circular composition in this wooden wall piece, its letters interlacing so gracefully that the sacred phrase becomes a medallion of pure line. The openwork cutting lets the wall glow through the script, lending lightness to a design of deep significance. Hung above a doorway, in the entrance or majlis, it opens every day in the name of Allah.
