The Art of Quranic Calligraphy
Islamic calligraphy (khatt) is the highest form of visual art in the Muslim world because it gives beauty to the Word of Allah. Surah Al-Mulk calligraphy is particularly popular because the opening word "Tabarak" (تبارك) has a natural visual flow that lends itself beautifully to ornamental Thuluth script.
The most commonly rendered phrases from Surah Al-Mulk include the full first verse, the isolated word "Tabarak" (Blessed is He), and the phrase "Al-Mulk" (The Sovereignty) as standalone decorative pieces.
