Description

Nasta'liq is considered the most beautiful modern Arabic/Islamic calligraphy script. Indeed, it is called the "bride" of Arabic calligraphy. Its name is a combination of the words "Naskh" and "Taliq", two Arabic calligraphy scripts whose most important qualities were fused into one. It is highly elegant and legible, and can be written quickly and compactly. This book will cover the methods of designing letters in Nasta'liq.
