In the verses preceding this passage of Surah Ar-Rahman, numerous worldly blessings are enumerated, after which this noble verse strikingly teaches us the truth that all of them are transient. It emphasizes that Almighty Allah alone is Eternal and that one must turn unto Him. This noble verse was frequently inscribed by our ancestors of high refinement and wisdom on wall shelves—commonly referred to as "kavukluk"—which were reserved for the headgear of statesmen, thereby reminding property and office holders in particular of the impermanence of rank and worldly blessings.
Penned repeatedly by many calligraphers, this sublime verse was prepared in the Jali Thuluth script style in 2017 by Calligrapher Osman Özçay. This magnificent artwork was executed as gold calligraphy (zerendûd) on a burgundy background. The Surah Ar-Rahman Verse 26 calligraphic frame is produced in our workshop with fine art print quality and presented to art lovers.
