Typically, though not entirely, Islamic art has focused on the depiction of patterns, whether purely geometric or floral, and Arabic calligraphy, rather than on figures, because it is feared by many Muslims that the depiction of the human form is idolatry and thereby a sin against God, forbidden in the Qur'an.

I hope this helps!!!

Answer:

  Forms such as sculpture and painting, the two most important mediums in Western art, have less importance to the Islamic artist. They are more likely to favor textiles, ceramics, metal wares, and glass.Typically, though not entirely, Islamic art has focused on the depiction of patterns, whether purely geometric or floral, and Arabic calligraphy, rather than on figures, because it is feared by many Muslims that the depiction of the human form is idolatry. Religious Islamic art values essence and meaning above physical representation. Stylized interpretations of the sacred are both practical and beautiful, seeking to fulfill religious inspiration and necessities of the faith. Not all Islamic art is religious, however, and secular examples do not shun physical forms. At its most basic level, Islamic art seeks to show the meaning and essence of things, not just their physical forms.
