Describe the importance of calligraphy and the Koran.

History
1 answer:
Alenkinab [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Inspired by and following the Koran, calligraphy became the main feature of Islamic art.

Explanation:

The Koran, or Qur'an, is the sacred book of Islam, which according to tradition was written by prophet Muhammad between 609-632 following divine inspiration by God. The Korean establishes that there's only one God, and that he is indivisible. This idea of the oneness of God is known as the tawhid, and it's the single most important principle of Islam. Following this concept, Islam forbids any and all representations of God or Muhammad, because creating an image of any of them could lead to idolatry, which runs contrary to the principle of the oneness of God. This led Islamic artists to focus on calligraphy as a form of art. From the beginning, the first versions of the Koran were written in highly stylized Arabic calligraphy. Soon this style spread, and Islamic art became renowned for its intricate calligraphy in paintings, pottery, architecture, and many more.

What are mapmakers referring to when they talk about balance?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

When mapmakers talk about balance it is about element placing. They need to make a map that is not crowded but also not full of blank space or any blank space at all. This leads to them excluding many elements of a given region just because there is not enough space on the paper to put it on. In order to put more elements on a map, map creators create maps of different scales and regions so that more details could be incorporated into a map.
