"The more experienced you are, the more diplomatic you are with letters." The man is a true master. Arabic calligraphy is incredibly difficult, yet he does it was such peace and grace.

Not when you get used on it
Besides not many can write the beautiful way he does😅😅😅😅
Arabic writing is the most elegant in the world.
It looks surreal, like something out of a fantasy novel, but is very much real and used by hundreds of millions of people.
Our language is art! :)
Middle eastern Sarah our prayers are art, also our architecture, our traditional clothes, our Style of life is pure art... the life as muslim. Salamualaikum sister (and salamualaikum is art... because peace is into the art..)

Mr One very beautiful words
هذا من فضل الله علينا، له الحمد وحده سبحانه في الاولي و الاخرة. تبارك الله أحسن الخالقين.
Gotta admit arabic language is the king of calligraphy. Once saw someone wrote an arabic calligraphy in front of me and i just fell in love.
Arabic is the most beautiful language on earth
and its grammar is one of the worst on earth
Windows Sucks 😂
Windows Sucks not that it's the worst it's just so hard, even the grammar is beautiful but it's very hard even for arabic speakers, I've been trying to learn it for years but couldn't
@@aflamrecab1 who are you? Why are you wise in the way of understanding us?
@@aflamrecab1 I mean... even us arabs struggle with the grammer.
The way he explained this art made me love it more
Happens alot to me, especially with Japanese arts
I'm a big fan of Arabic
Haven't ya become a مكيف yet ?
@oliver dreyer it is a play on the words both Arabic and English
fan other meaning is the cooling device with fins.
مكيف in Arabic is short for Air=هواء Conditioner (A/C), the other meaning is something like becoming happy/cool/content; the state of mind when things go as you wish(ed).
I remember a little practice in Arabic class as a kid we had to draw words and I still can't forget it I found it so fun. Arabic even to us Arabs is very fascinating and complicated. I loved learning the weights of poem and reading the poems of Arabs in the class. Trully our language in itself is art. And that is a bother blessing from God.
Arabic certainly has an allure, which is very sophisticated.
It's a writing system developed from writing with sticks in sand, which is why when you look at it, you can't help but to be reminded of Arabia.
God bless you.
Beautiful how he explained about letters and words
Allah (SWT) preserved the Glorious Quran
﷽
That's bism Allah alrahman alrahim in arabic
How you did it
@@kokonuts9701 you have to use the additional keys on an arabic keyboard or download arabic as a writing language on your phone then go to the third page and thereyou will find even more than only this, likeﷺ.

Hi there,
I like the way you describe the art . I need your help as well. I see the ink you using is different. Would you please advice me how to make it or where to get it.
Thanks
Very Beautiful...
I also like to do arabic calligraphy... Please guide me which kind of the ink is to be used for bamboo qalam.
He is Iraqi that's obvious his Name is Taha Al-Hiti and Hit is a city in Al-Anbar district in the west of Iraq💁♂️🇮🇶
Love his calligraphy🖤
He is writing very beautiful
His approach is very technical that's why he emphasizes laboring
But there is a more flowed method that's more artistic and easier to practice by amateurs
Arabic writing is so beautiful
Very nice
Arabic ❤️
the best kind of calligraphy
Beautiful
Great indeed
inspirative art work without sin.
অনুপ্রেরণামূলক
Mashallah very nice
Amazing
I really wish I could buy some arabic calligraphy supplies, but they're so expensive!
Hey man,
PLEASE would you tell me what are your tools? I'm in Australia and know nothing of art tools much
Arabic calligraphy mainly uses
' qalam' which is a wooden pen made of bamboo and other wood material. The ideal qalam for Arabic calligraphy would be bamboo qalam, as the calligrapher is using in this video, there are many more qalam too , such as celi or Turkish, bali, handam qalam . You also need an inkwell ( glass jar 20ml ) and likka( silk thread) to preserve the ink. Paper used by calligrapher are called ' ahar' paper they're handmade and can be maintained upto 100 years. All of this tools are available online . I hope this helps you.
Super
Fantastic
ما شاء الله
Subhaanallah Mashallah
تحياتي لك من تطوان المغرب
i love the relation of it with the human body!
my favourite.
hmmm, what kind of ink does he use? and where can I get an ink container like his one?
Thanh Huy Tran any water based ink you can use, mix with 2:1 with water or rose water. And put some raw silk in a pot and make the raw silk soak the ink in it and you are done. If you can't find raw silk you can use wool or cotton
From store
Arabic calligraphy is ........ oohhh my dear
أحب فن الخط العربي
Awsome....👍🤘
Super 👌
may i know the name of this Master, and if he have a Facebook or Instagram or any other platform, thank you
sorry but to be truth arabic is the most beautiful language in design and most accurate in grammar and description
Beautiiifulll
Meanwhile my writing in arabic looks like it was written by a kid
most Arabic native people write like kids even if they are adults.. it is an art to write Arabic nicely..
Old textbooks for learning Qur'anic writting in other countries look like they were written by high school juniors.
And these are non-native masters of Arabic language who had written it.
It is definetly not easy.
