Arabic Calligraphy captures the following wisdom from Ali Ibn Abi Talib:

  • English
Truth cannot be credited to those whom claim to have it.
Rather, it is people who are measured by standards of virtue.
To find Truth, you must first seek its sovereignty.
Only then will you find its rightful owners.

Or,

"The truth is not known by men, Rather, men are known by the truth. So, know the truth and you will know its people."

-Ali Ibn Abi Talib
  • Arabic:
الحق لا يعرف بالرجال
وإنما يعرف الرجال بالحق
فاعرف الحق تعرف أهله

علي بن أبي طالب-


This phrase indicates that genuine values, principles, and true truths distinguish individuals and reveal their authentic natures and ethics. This signifies that values and ethics form our true identity and manifest in the way we live our lives and carry out our actions.

This phrase also expresses the significance of seeking truth, knowledge, and deep contemplation to comprehend matters as they are, rather than as we believe or desire them to be. This phrase encourages us to be cautious and mindful in choosing what is true, honest, and upright, and to avoid deception, falsehood, and pretense of truth and integrity.

This idea from wisdom aligns with religious and ethical values in numerous cultures, reflecting the principles of honesty, sincerity, and profound thought behind our actions and decisions.

The print is available in two sizes, 11x14" and 12x16".

Each print is signed and shipped directly from the artist. A description card is also included with each print, which has the Arabic/Farsi and English translations, as well as a preview of the selected piece.

The Gold Frame package includes a double matting of Cream and Gold that beautifully compliments the tan background.
