“we certainly know that their statements sorely grieve you”

My first post here.

Hello and Assalamualaikum everyone. I’m starting a course in some weeks and the assignment the teacher has me doing in Rabbi Yassir and I’m surprised that I would be starting here rather than individual letters. I just feel like me writing this is going to look completely alien to the script and frankly, embarrassing. The proportions are going to look very off, the strokes won’t be smooth etc.

Though writing this, I’m just reading my post and replying in my head like “well duh” lol.

I don’t have any previous artistic strengths so I am going into this completely fresh, heck my handwriting in English is bad too lol. Is feelings like this normal?

You are always in my heart.

i tried to copy this off pinterest

I think I’m holding the pencil slightly wrong, does anyone have any tutorials, and any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Hey! So, I've been trying to teach myself the Tuluth script for almost two years now, but I feel quite lost with my practice. I started out in the traditional way of learning the "Rabbi Yasir," then I moved onto learning letters individually, then in letter pairings. However, I don't feel like there has been much improvement, especially because I do not have a teacher who could critique my work. Now, I just copy off ayahs from a mesk I have of Mehmed Sevki Efendi's work. Can someone please tell me how they learned the script on their own, and what a good learning process/pathway would be? Also, how do I know when I can move on from learning a specific letter or letter pairing? How do I go about learning without a teacher? Some resources I already use are: 1)The mesk of Mehmed Sevki Efendi 2)Calligrapher Hakan Arsalan's Youtube channel

Are there any reference materials/resources on the internet for Arabic scripts invented (a) after the early-to-mid-19th century (when Rik'a was codified), (b) as an attempt to "simplify" Arabic or (c) that do not fall into the previous categories but -- for whatever reason -- are still rarely used?

i find that whole ayah can be intimidating and overwhelming to learn and write, so i love to write parts of ayahs to practice certain letters. open to all suggestions on how to improve!

I got gold transfer sheet to do the surah title and verse end marks. The gold sheet is not sticking to the transfer paper well. The whole sheet ended up on the ahar paper and got crumpled :( can I save this? How do I buy gold sheet that will be sticking to the transfer paper well enough? I dont want to use the rest of the sheets if they will end up like this

i love seeing everyone’s work on here, thinking i might start doing the same!

so this is my first time doing arabic calligraphy and i know it does not look neat, it’s cz i held paint brushes for the first time and i do not have stable hands so professional artists pls teach me ur ways lol. i was thinking to cover the written ayat in gold flakes, i tried doing it too but when i applied glue over the pencil sketches the gold flakes became messy and lost their gold shine idk why?

i decided to paint it black to make it a bit neater and then decided i would use glue on top of the paint, but idk again would that work? i have zero knowledge whatsoever so i really need help on how i can apply gold flakes without them loosing their shine also how much time do i let the glue dry before applying the flakes PS i have flakes not sheets

Except for the لهن i literally have no idea how to do it any differently :/ any links for what will benefit me to learn would be appreciated

can anyone recommend sheets I can practice with as a beginner

Hi, I previously had a post on a similar question. I've just received an inkpot with likka in it I'm wondering how much I should take out. The inkpot is 30ml Should I remove any? Or once I add ink will the wet likka properly fit the ink pot?

Sorry for the constant questions 🙁

u/Fabulous_Network8243 Here is what you have asked last time. It is in Maghribi script, you you would expect one nuqta under for ف and one nuqta above for the ق

Let me know what are your thoughts about it
