This artwork features Arabic calligraphy of a Quranic verse — a deeply spiritual phrase that expresses complete trust in God and which translates to: “Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs. The best Protector and the best Helper.”

This verse (from Surah Al Imran 3:173 and also echoed in Surah Al-Anfal 8:40) is recited by Muslims when facing fear, adversity, or uncertainty. 

The large sweeping strokes and balanced symmetry in the calligraphy mirror the spiritual message — trust, balance, and divine order. The script style appears to be a fusion of Thuluth and Diwani calligraphic traditions — elegant, flowing, and designed to inspire contemplation.
Owning this artwork can serve as a spiritual reminder of faith and trust — that no matter the circumstances, divine guidance and protection are sufficient. It brings a sense of serenity, strength, and assurance to any space, especially one meant for reflection or prayer.

Calligraphy 7 - Arabic

This painting features Arabic calligraphy—executed in a fluid, semi-cursive style that combines elements of Thuluth and Diwani script traditions.  The contrast between the bold, sweeping ascenders and the fine, looping descenders showcases the artist’s control over balance and proportion.

The white ink of the script stands out vividly against the layered background of indigo, crimson, amber, and gold, suggesting both light emerging from darkness and the spiritual beauty of divine expression. Arabic calligraphy, often considered a sacred art in Islamic culture, transforms language into a visual embodiment of rhythm and devotion—where the written word itself becomes an act of reverence.

The overlapping strokes and interconnected letterforms give the impression that the verses are not just written but woven, reinforcing the unity between word, art, and meaning. This work demonstrates spiritual depth—inviting contemplation on how form and faith converge through language.

Calligraphy 6 - Arabic

These are two of the Beautiful Names of Allah (Asma’ul Husna):
Al-Kāfī (ٱلكَافِي) – The Sufficient One, the One whose support is enough for all creation & Al-Fattāḥ (ٱلفَتَّاح) – The Opener, the One who opens all that is closed — hearts, minds, paths, and opportunities.
This invocation expresses trust, hope, and surrender. It is a prayer for relief, guidance, and divine openings when one faces obstacles or uncertainty. it’s a reminder that divine sufficiency and grace are boundless — that every door closed by circumstance can be opened by faith.

The circular seal at the top right bears the phrase بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيم (Bismillāh ir-Raḥmān ir-Raḥīm, “In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate”).
