During the Umayyad era, improvements in Quranic writing began, with notable figures like
Ibrahim al-Shajari and Hassan Al-Basri contributing to the development of calligraphy. The
transition to the Abbasid period saw Baghdad emerge as a center for calligraphy,
producing renowned calligraphers like Dahak bin Ajlan and Ishaq bin Hammad. Ibn Muqla, a prominent figure from Baghdad, established rules and measurements for Arabic calligraphy, known as the "golden virtues." Subsequent calligraphers like Yaqut al-Mustasimi and Ibn al-Bawwab further refined calligraphy styles, contributing to the evolution of Islamic calligraphy. The Abbasid era saw the emergence of six primary calligraphy styles, including Naskhi, Thuluth, and Muhaqqaq, with each serving distinct purposes. Following the Abbasid era, the Ottoman period ushered in a golden age of calligraphy, with Ottoman calligraphers excelling in Quranic copying and decorative inscriptions, notably through the Tugra style.
