While the preceding verses of Surah Ar-Rahman enumerate numerous worldly blessings, this noble verse strikingly teaches us the reality that all of them are transient. It emphasizes that the Everlasting is solely God Almighty, highlighting the necessity of turning towards Him.
This noble verse was frequently inscribed by our ancestors—possessors of exquisite taste and profound wisdom—on wall shelves known as kavukluk, which were specifically designed to hold the headgear worn by statesmen. Through this, the transience of worldly blessings and ranks was particularly reminded to those holding wealth and high office.
This majestic verse, repeatedly inscribed by numerous calligraphers throughout history, was penned by the Calligrapher Osman Özçay in the jali thuluth script in 2017. This magnificent work was crafted using the zerendûd (gold applied) technique on a burgundy background. The calligraphy tableau of Surah Ar-Rahman, Verse 26, is produced in our workshop with fine art printing quality and presented to art lovers.
