Arabic calligraphy is the artistic practice of handwriting and calligraphy based on the Arabic alphabet. It is known in Arabic as khatt (Arabic: خَطّ), derived from the words 'line', 'design', or 'construction'. Kufic is the oldest form of the Arabic script. Arabic calligraphy is known and appreciated for its diversity and potential for development. It is linked in Arabic culture to fields including religion, art, architecture, education, and craftsmanship, which in turn have played an important role in its advancement. Although most Islamic calligraphy is in Arabic and most Arabic calligraphy is Islamic, the two are not identical. Coptic and other Christian manuscripts in Arabic have made use of Arabic calligraphy. Similarly, there is Islamic calligraphy in Persian and Ottoman Turkish.
