The theme of “Al Noor (Divine Light)” inspired by the 49th verse of Al Busiri’s Qasidat Al Burda (Ode of the Mantle), celebrates the Prophet Muhammad as a source of divine light and guidance. The journey unfolds through a meditative and immersive progression of artworks across multiple mediums – including interpretations of Qur’anic verses, the Qasidat Al Burda and Ahmed Shawqi’s Nahj Al Burda. The exhibition culminates in works inspired by the Muhammad ‘s Farewell Sermon – an eternal call to compassion, unity and enlightenment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9789948713753.
