Title: Req: Help with Arabic wall decoration
Post by: mhmd on July 19, 2017, 01:48:34 AM

I have a decorative wall-hanging with Arabic writing which was apparently imported from Iraq.

There's some concern about displaying it in my home since I can't yet read Arabic and don't know what is written on it  other than the Name of Allah.

I'm not asking for a complete translation. I'd just like to be sure it doesn't reflect a  Rafidi/Twelver point of view (or anything else in opposition to Islam).

Thanks very much in advance.

Salam Alaikum,

Nothing problematic! First one says "Allah" (and on top of it "Allah" and "Muhammad" in small size).

The second image is "La ilaha illallah Muhammad Rasoulallah".

Third one is Surah Ikhlas.

Fourth is a verse of the Quran (21:87)

Fifth image is also a verse of the Quran (62:11)

The last one says "Muhammad" (with "Allah" and "Muhammad" in small text over it).
