About the work
Set against a textured background of mustard yellow and dark charcoal, this painting features bold, white Diwani-style script. The paint appears layered and distressed, giving the work a gritty, contemporary industrial feel. The Meaning: This painting features the iconic refrain from Surah Ar-Rahman: "Fabi-ayyi ala-i Rabbikuma tukadhdhiban" ("Then which of the favors of your Lord will you deny?"). It serves as a rhythmic reminder of the countless physical and spiritual blessings bestowed upon humanity and jinn.
Tradition and subject
This is an oil painting on canvas, painted by a Pakistani artist. The subject is islamic centric and intended to serve as a reminder to recite the script for protection. The art is valued as a meaningful reminder, not as an object with independent spiritual power.
Care
Gently dust with a soft, dry brush and display in a dry, shaded spot away from moisture and chemicals.
