Who made this Page from the Qur'an?
Scribes and calligraphers were highly skilled and trained individuals responsible for transcribing the Qur'anic text. Calligraphers were revered for their mastery of Arabic calligraphy, particularly for their ability to write in the specific scripts that had been developed and standardized for Qur'anic texts, such as Kufic. Their work required a deep knowledge of the Qur'an, precision, and a steady hand to ensure that each letter and word was accurately and beautifully rendered. The role of a calligrapher was highly respected, as they were tasked with the sacred duty of copying the word of God.
