People in Bahrain will have the opportunity to usher in the New Year with images of stunning Islamic calligraphy as part of an annual calendar being sold to support a Bahraini museum dedicated to preserving ancient Islamic texts.
The highly-anticipated Beit Al Quran Calendar for 2026 will feature 12 artworks celebrating Arabic letters by artists from Bahrain and abroad.
As always, they were all contributions from Dr Abdul Latif Kanoo’s private collection, which he has graciously offered to the museum to make the popular calendars.
Beit Al Quran director Ashraf Al Ansari said that this year’s edition aims to celebrate the beauty, diversity and elegance of the Arabic letter.
“The Arabic letter carries within it a long history of civilisation and creativity,” said Mr Al Ansari.
