The “Proportioned Script” of Ibn Muqla--renowned scribe of 10th-century Baghdad--has governed the practice of Arabic scribal art up to the present day. In this richly illustrated study, Moustafa and Sperl analyze each letter form of Ibn Muqla’s perfected penmanship revealing the history, linguistics, philosophy, theology, and sacred geometry that underlie this spiritual art form.
