German orientalist Reeves Hoenke.

Arabic Calligraphy

The Arabs excelled in drawing Arabic calligraphy until they reached the level of arts. Arabic calligraphy seems to you at first glance to be a painting because Arabic writes its letters connected, which makes it capable of acquiring different geometric shapes.

The best thing that Arabs have mastered is the Holy Qur’an, where it was written in many fonts. Here are some pictures that highlight the beauty of Arabic calligraphy.
