Learn Arabic calligraphy at home

Five scripts. Start with any of them.
Each has forty lessons, and the first level is free.
Ruq'ah
The quick everyday hand. Most people start with this one.
The basics
Naskh
The hand of printed books, and the way into the classical scripts.

Farsi
The slanting hand of Persian poetry.

This is Mashq Studio. It's free, it runs in your browser, and in two minutes you'll make your first piece of Arabic calligraphy. Start in the Text box. Write any word, name or phrase in Arabic. Here, we'll write the name Maryam. Make it bigger: type a size in the Size box at the top. Now choose a script. Each one is a classical style of Arabic calligraphy. This is Ruq'ah, the clear hand of everyday Arabic writing. And this is Thuluth, the grand script of mosque walls. Switch as often as you like. Your text stays. Pick an ink colour from the bar at the top. In the corner, you can see your design on a finished piece, with its price. When you're happy, open Export. PDF is ready for any print shop. SVG and DXF are there for laser cutting. Your first four downloads are free, with a small Mashq mark. Or click Order a piece, and we'll make it for you in the UAE and deliver it to your door.
