This silk textile has a design that was traditionally used for tomb covers. The religious inscriptions are worked in white and arranged in a zigzag pattern on a red ground. The denser text within each V-shape of the zigzag quotes the Muslim creed, or statement of belief. This states, 'There is no god but God. Muhammad is the messenger of God'. Further inscriptions make up the narrower bands.
Örnek Metin
The denser text within each V-shape of the zigzag quotes the Muslim declaration of faith: 'There is no God but God. Mohammed is the messenger of God'. In the narrower bands are alternating verses from the Qur'an: surat al-Baqara (2:144) and Al Imran (3:96). In the intercises the flask shaped cartouches have two of the ninety-nine names of God (sympathetic one, benefactor) with a third (possessor of glory and generosity) in the roundels.
