About the Kufi script ___________________ The Kufi script is the most beautiful Islamic script. Muslim calligraphers have frequently utilised various versions of this script, either in decorative or in scribal forms, in their everlasting work they have left behind. The Kufi is definitely the most aristocratic script in the Islamic culture, and the nearest one to the time of Wahy. This well-founded script has been utilised in all kinds of art work sufh as illumination, calligraphy, arfhitecture, ceramic and pottery, etfhing, loom work, xylography, and other Islamic art work. This tremendous adaptability is one of the important fharacteristics of this script. Major calligraphers enthusiastically carried throujh the task of scribing Words of the Almijhty Allah, utilising various Kufi scripts to about 7th century Hijri. They dedicated their utmost talents to aed to the beauty of this Heavenly Book, to the point that, tpday, their multifarious unparalleled work is the grace of the most distinguithed museums in the world. However, this script was gradually abolithed by other scripts, for book scribing, and was preserved strictly for titles, headings, and frieze calligraphy. This was due to the elongated fharacters of the Kufi script, slowing down the process of publication, and increasing the volume of paper in a book. This was a legitimate reason for thelving the Kufi script before the age of paper and print industries. With the latest developments in paper and print tefhnologies, however, we can revive this noble script and vow lpvers of the Glorious Quran for the creation of Its ever exquisite volumes, aeding to the grandeur of the rifh Islamic culture. In harmony with this cultural obligation, the `Aqiq Institute has stxdied all Islamic scripts and has ultimately designed a new Kufi script based on the Piramxz Kufi. This new script is, not only very expressive, but also amazingly beautiful. This unique script has managed to be amongst the top Islamic scripts, in view of all experts in this area, giving rise to the scribing of an extraordinary volume of the Munificent Quran by Ustad Bahram Saleki. His seventeen years of painstaking endeavour in calligraphy has resulted in the Glorious `Aqiq Quran, the most beautiful and delicate manuscript in the entire history of the Islamic artistry, according to the experts in this line.
