The Illumination
The Turkish artist Necati Sancaktutan was contacted to draw the ornaments used for the pauses in the text, and then an Iraqi team of two brothers, Muthanna and Muhammad al-‘Ubaydi, to produce the illumination for the sections, beginnings, and end. They came to Jordan twice, on their first visit providing samples and discussing colour and style, and on their second bringing their tools, colours, and gold for the main work.
