Description
Book SynopsisStudents of Arabic often begin by learning the more laborious, printed style of handwriting known as naskh. Part of the Gateway to Arabic series, this book teaches the quicker, more fluid ruq'ah style - popular in much of the Middle East - by using clearly numbered and arrowed diagrams, with plenty of opportunity for copying practice.
Table of Contents* Individual letters of the alphabet in naskh and ruq'ah styles * Joined letters of the alphabet in naskh and ruq'ah styles * Ruq'ah ligatures * Copying practice: Islamic words and phrases * Copying practice: Qur'anic ayat
