The First Piece

The Phrase a Calligrapher Often Writes First

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Bismillahir-rahmanir-rahim

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
QS Al-Fatihah: 1

The basmalah is the phrase most often written in Arabic calligraphy, opening a piece and a practice in composition. Within it gather varied letter shapes, curves, joins, and spaces that call for balance, which is why it is often chosen as a student's first framed work.

The Path of Achievement

Khat Opens a Road, from a Home Hobby to the MKQ Stage

For those who wish to reach further, Arabic calligraphy holds a real road of achievement through the Musabaqah Khattil Quran. This grows step by step with practice, and Arabi guides it honestly according to each student's ability.

The Naskah (Manuscript) Branch

Writing verses in the required and chosen styles neatly and correctly within a set time, sharpening the speed and accuracy of your strokes.

The Decoration Branch (Mushaf Ornament)

Bringing writing together with ornament and color, which asks for mature handling of space and aesthetic balance.

The Contemporary Branch

Exploring khat styles in free composition that still rests on the correct rules of the letters.

Arabi introduces the demands of each branch and guides its rules strictly for students who wish to take part.
