as you know .. may be ? :p
but God has according with Muslims ninety nine terms, as well as;
Great, Faithful, Beauty, Generous, Merciful, and so

on the pic, possible to read two of these terms;
- Al Rafa'a (the Hight)
- Al Rahman (the Clement)

the inlaid was practiced every where,
for the countries using arabic alphabet the religion is often the subject,
indeed none speaking arabic, as well as; Turkey, Persia (Iran), Pakistan, even India, Spain (Moorish) and may be China

Hi
certainly "Malaysia" (sorry to have forget it in the list) :o
huge Muslim country (biggest than Arabic countries all together)
where arabic alphabet is in use, for religious purpose
even if the population doesn't speak at all that language, as native

.... are you able to translate?
under all reserves, because
- sentence seems incomplet
- calligraphy average

sense of reading <------
(?)A'Ali(?) Al wa ??????? (missing part ??)
(?)High(?) The and ??????
religious dedicace including God qualification "The High"

sorry if I cannot be more acute :shrug:

Hi, good day
two comments;
- at left side possible to read the date ; 1287 either 1870 Gregorian calendar :p

- at right side, the quality of the macro is too weak, and the sentence seems cut ?? :confused:

not persian, neither indian
but real arabic, possible to read a part of religious inscription .. as usual
"The High, The Merciful, God" (green pic)

the flash with the camera, prevent possibilities of exposure correction :shrug:
better a picture too dark, I may correct it, if uniform, tks

either, she may read, and she translated to me, that is enough for me as prove, that's it's arabic :D
