Description
This powerful calligraphic painting by Sadequain fuses Qur’anic revelation with his signature modern expressionism, transforming divine words into living, pulsating forms. The verses inscribed are from Surah Al-Rahman (55:56–57) — “In them will be maidens of modest gaze, untouched before by man or jinn. Then which of the favors of your Lord will you deny?”
Rendered in bold strokes of black, white, and crimson, the composition captures a spiritual tension between purity and human ingratitude. The upper verse evokes innocence and divine perfection, while the recurring declaration below challenges humanity to acknowledge the countless blessings of the Creator.
Sadequain’s swirling background, alive with radiant energy, symbolizes divine illumination emerging from chaos. Through the interplay of color, movement, and sacred text, he transforms scripture into an experience of revelation — a visual symphony of faith, reflection, and transcendence.
