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.
