ITREB Thought of the Day
A qalam is a type of pen made from a cut, dried reed or bamboo, used for calligraphy. The concepts of knowledge and writing are very important in Muslim societies, and thus the qalam is revered as a symbol of wisdom and education. The Arabic language and the subsequent art of calligraphy, is held in great esteem by Muslims, because Arabic was the language in which the Qur’an was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). Because of this, a large variety of accessories exist to accompany the qalam and its user, such as pen boxes, ink wells, and knives for cutting the reeds. These tools were often very ornamented and cherished objects themselves and reflected countless hours of meticulous artwork.
