Shahada Mihrab Arch — Acrylic Islamic Wall Art

The panel is drawn as a mihrab — the arched prayer niche of a mosque — with its whole face filled by an interlacing girih star pattern. At the centre of the arch sits a round medallion carrying the Shahada, لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله, cut in classical Thuluth so the letters lock together into a single circle. Two smaller roundels sit in the upper corners: Allah on the right, Muhammad on the left. A band of eight-petal rosettes runs down the sides and along the foot, closing the frame.

It is a tall, upright piece — at 80 cm wide it stands roughly 104 cm high — so check your drop before choosing a size. It suits a prayer corner, a hallway above a console, or the wall behind a majlis seating group, where the open cut-work lets the wall colour read through the pattern. Gloss piano black holds a crisp silhouette against a pale wall. Mirror gold warms under lamplight and picks up the room around it. Mirror chrome silver stays cooler and more architectural, and sits well with grey or stone finishes.
