B I S M I L L A H
These monoprints read the inscription 'bismillah al rahman al rahem', which translates to 'in the name of Allah, the most gracious, most merciful'. This phrase is recited before each chapter of the Qur'an. The style of Arabic script used is known as 'square kufic'. The square kufic style is derived from an architectural tradition where it was applied as a pattern on to buildings with a square grid.
