Amshaq of the Muhaqqaq Font

​Amshaq of the Muhaqqaq Font.

The Royal Hashemite Documentation Center in Jordan holds a deep interest in the art of Arabic calligraphy, considering it one of the most significant aspects of Islamic civilization and an important means of preserving and documenting the heritage of the Arab and Islamic nation in all its details.

The Center presents a unique collection of "Amshaq of the Muhaqqaq Font" prepared by the skilled Arab calligrapher, Dr. Nassar Mansour. This collection is rare in the field of Arabic calligraphy and is unprecedented in institutions dedicated to preserving Arab and Islamic heritage.

These Amshaq are part of a comprehensive effort to revive the Muhaqqaq font. They cover the study of the Muhaqqaq font in terms of its origins, developmental stages, and stylistic schools. This version of the Muhaqqaq Amshaq allows enthusiasts of Arabic calligraphy to familiarize themselves with one of the most important and fundamental styles of Arabic font, a font that has held a high status among calligraphers, writers, and various societal groups for its sacred role in writing the Holy Quran.

The publications from the Hashemite Documentation Center are not translated into English. Institutions and publishing houses interested in publishing a translated version should contact the center at the following email address: Info@rhdc.jo. This offers an opportunity for broader access to these valuable historical resources for non-Arabic speaking audiences and researchers.
