Calligraphy, the art of writing beautifully, became one of the main methods of artistic expression and moreover, the one of the visual arts produced in the Islamic lands that was widely appreciated within its own culture, with treatises devoted to its history and artistic merits written from medieval times onwards. The Arabic inscriptions found on buildings and objects were produced in many media throughout the Islamic lands from the earliest times to the present. The first example of Islamic architecture, the Dome of the Rock built by the Umayyad caliph al-Malik in Jerusalem in 72/692, is decorated with a long band mainly consisting of Qur'anic verses. Therefore, of many contemporary buildings in Qatar, such as Menaratien building and other buildings will be covered and study in detail in this research.
