Arabic Calligraphy


Arabic Calligraphy by Zak

Today in Philosophy class I saw Arabic writings on the board. I wonder what it means until the teacher noticed me that I was staring at it for almost five minutes! I was amazed and studied the writings carefully. I wonder how the person wrote it. Or maybe he or she is already used to it. It inspires me a lot. I got to know more of their practices and traditions in the internet albeit I'm not one of them. But two days ago, my friends and I went to a Syrian coffeeshop along Ponciano Street and there were books and small maps of different countries which majority of the people practice Islam. Indeed, Muslims are rich in customs and traditions.
