Khat Opens a Road, from Pastime to the MKQ Stage

The Decoration Branch (Mushaf Ornament)
Weaving writing together with ornament and color, which calls for mature handling of space and aesthetic balance.

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.

FAQ
Questions About the Arabic Calligraphy Course in Sorong
Arabi teaches three core styles in order. Naskhi comes first because its forms are clear, easy to read, and act as the parent of the others. Once Naskhi is steady, you meet the compact Riq'ah for quick writing, then the majestic Thuluth with its broad curves for ornament and wall pieces. Each style carries its own rule of measure, trained gradually.
What is the nuqthah rule in Arabic calligraphy?
The nuqthah is a rhombus-shaped dot stamped from the tip of the qalam, used as the unit to size each letter. The height of the alif, the width of the ba, and the sweep of a curve are all counted in a number of dots. With this measure, your writing turns balanced and true to the same rules of khat the masters have carried for generations.
