Some pictures of a project in reviving Andalusian-Maghribi calligraphy in manuscript form. The work is extremely beautiful and I hope to see more like this and will continue to grow, in’shaa’Allah.
The work has been done by calligrapher Ustadh Badr Essaihi (@badr_essaihi), geometric floral design by Ustadh Fouad Blili (@fouad_blili), leather craftsmanship by Furkan Yoldas (@furkanyoldas_), and photographer Khalil SK (@khalil_sk).
I would advise everyone to check out their social media accounts on Instagram and see more pictures of art.

An interesting yet sad story about this book.
It was said that after the author wrote this book he was murdered.
There was a group that was residing in al-Andalus and migrated to Morocco when al-Andalus fell into the hands of the Catholics. This group was against the Maliki Madhab and its Usul.
A Maliki scholar by the name of Abu al-Abbas al-Waryakili as-Saghir wrote a strong rebuttal against this group and defended the Maliki school. This group could not handle this refutation and it was said that it led to Shaykh al-Waryakili being killed.
This book has been published for the first time by Ihya Center For Research and Studies in Cairo.

🔷How a Soldier From Al-Andalus Would of Looked Like
As you can see there is a covering that wraps around soldier similar to a Silham that is worn in North Africa until this day.
A pointy style helmet was also common in Muslim lands in the east.
Helmets without pointy tops was also worn in Al-Andalus such as the helmet of Abu Abdallah Muhammad XII, known in the West as Boabdil, the last Nasrid sultan of Granada (reigned 1482–83 and 1487–92). His helmet is rumored to be in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City. I have personally seen this helmet and took a picture with it.
