Bismillah ir-Rahman ir- Rahim

This painting reads as magnificent words of Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim.

The common translation for Bismillah ir- Rahman ir –Rahim stands for
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.

So I wanted to start my blog is this beautiful word Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim

I made this Islamic Calligraphy painting,with my daughter’s crayons within 10 mins
But I love how beautiful this painting turned out.

That’s all for now friends
