Reviews
Stories from Arabi Calligraphy Students
5.0From 34 parent reviews
My child, once so restless, now traces lines and dots with real care. The calligrapher draws in front of him, so he can see exactly how the hand should move.
I began from zero in my thirties. Learning Naskhi by the nuqthah rule tidied my writing, and I have already framed my first basmalah.
Through the naskah branch I came to grasp the required and chosen styles. Correction on every sheet made my strokes more exact heading into the MKQ.
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 Mark of Arabi Khat
What Sets Learning Khat at Arabi Apart
A few things that help your strokes reach their beauty sooner.
Sizing by the Nuqthah Dot
You measure the height and width of each letter with the rhombus dot from the qalam tip. From this, your strokes turn balanced, readable, and true to the correct rules of khat.
Drawing Before Your Eyes
The calligrapher shows the hand movements words cannot carry, from the tilt of the qalam to the weight of each stroke, so you can copy them exactly.
Rising Once You Are Steady
One style is settled first, beginning with Naskhi as the parent, before Riq'ah and Thuluth follow, so the foundation holds firm.

FAQ
Questions About the Arabic Calligraphy Course in Sorong
Can I learn Arabic calligraphy from scratch even if I cannot draw?
Yes. Arabic calligraphy rests on care and practice under correct rule, and anyone can train for that. You begin by holding the qalam, work on lines and dots, then size letters by the nuqthah unit. Arabi's calligraphers in Sorong guide you step by step, so even someone who has never held a qalam can reach a piece worthy of framing.
What khat styles are taught at Arabi?
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.
What is the youngest age a child can join the calligraphy course?
A child who can hold a pen with a steady hand and knows the hijaiyah letters is usually ready to start, most often around 5 years and above. For children in Sorong, the guidance follows the steadiness of their hand and their span of focus, beginning with simple lines and dots. A free chat via WhatsApp 628164896943 helps us read your child's readiness.
Can the calligraphy course be done online from Sorong?
Yes. Whether you are in the heart of Sorong or the outer neighborhoods, Arabi offers khat at your home or online across the screen. In an online class, the calligrapher draws the example live and you send photos of your practice to be corrected on the spot. Online learning is also backed by the Arabi App, and you register through daftar.arabi.id.
Does Arabi prepare students for calligraphy contests such as the MKQ?
Yes, for students who wish to. The Musabaqah Khattil Quran (MKQ) weighs the beauty and the rules of the writing across the naskah, decoration, and contemporary branches. Arabi's calligraphers guide those rules closely and lay out what each branch demands. This preparation grows step by step with practice, and we guide it honestly by each student's own ability.
How long does it take before I can make a calligraphy piece?
The time varies from person to person because khat is measured by strokes that keep improving. What counts is diligent practice and a steady footing at each milestone, from controlled lines, to Naskhi letters, to joins, to composition. With regular practice and periodic correction, many students have made a first basmalah piece worth framing within a few levels.
Can Arabic Calligraphy in Sorong be learned at home?
Yes. Arabi offers Arabic Calligraphy with an ustadz or ustadzah who can come to your home in various areas of Sorong such as Remu, Klademak, Klaurung, or Tanjung Kasuari, and there is also an online learning option to keep learning regular even though distances between areas in Sorong are quite far apart.
