Flame of Allāh, by Sunflower Central. The background piece is a water color layer of different oranges. In the foreground is a paper with the Calligraphy cut from it to give a view to the background piece. The foreground ground is a rounded kufic style caligraphy that is actually in English. It is done in pen and ink with a dark blue ink to contrast with the fluid style of the orange water colors in the background.

The watercolour and ink piece is really beautiful! mA! I love how the ink work is so calligraphic in English (: very cool!
HAHHAHAHA I’m surprised no one caught onto ‘falanadimkana’
I know what ‘falana’ means… but what does ‘dimkana’ mean? It’s not something dodgy, I hope?! I also asked my parents, and they didn’t know, so I’m guessing it’s not Hindi/Urdu?
All of these are great, mA! The first two are really beautiful.
subahan Allaah. i liked commute home very much.
