I’ve been practicing Arabic calligraphy for almost a year and specifically Dewani script for over 5 months now, and it’s become something much deeper than just a writing practice. Each day as I sit down with my Qalam , it’s like I’m diving into a meditative space that helps me reconnect with myself. The rhythmic flow of the script, the concentration it demands—it all feels like a calming reset for my mind.
What I’ve realized through this practice is how much it’s helping me find inner peace. Writing Quranic aya in Dewani isn’t just about getting the strokes right—it’s become a way for me to understand myself better . I’m learning to embrace patience, self-worth, and mindfulness, all while letting go of any pressure or distractions around me and understanding the beauty of Allah’s words !
It’s fascinating how something so simple can have such a profound impact on how I feel about myself. I’m really grateful to Allah for this quiet, personal journey that’s helping me grow every day.
