183-Year-Old Quran Highlights Mecca’s Reverence
The Holy Quran Museum in Mecca displays a rare manuscript dating back to 1843 AD (1259 AH). It is considered one of the most important witnesses to the art of its writing and decoration across the ages. The manuscript exhibits a high level of artistic precision, with gold embellishments and vegetal engravings, as well as careful divisions of the Quranic text to facilitate recitation and memorization. It has later undergone restoration efforts to preserve it. This manuscript represents a part of the historic efforts to serve Islamic heritage and reflects the development of calligraphy and decorative arts in the nineteenth century.
