Verses from the Qur’an in Arabic

 
 

The Arabic language can be written beautifully to make different shapes and patterns.  This is called ‘calligraphy’.  Mosques walls often contain words or verses from the Qur’an to decorate the building.  Also it helps the Muslims to think carefully about the meaning of the writing.  Here is some calligraphy written in the Cardiff mosque.
