Description
{و هو الذي جعل لكم النجوم لتهتدوا بها في ظلمات البر و البحر قد فصلنا الآيات لقوم يعلمون }
سورة الانعام آية 6

Alternate translation of the verse in the drawing:

"It is He Who has set the stars for you ,so that you may guide your course with their help through the darkness of the land and the sea .We have (indeed) explained in Our Ayat (proofs ,evidences ,verses ,lessons ,signs ,Revelations ,etc.) for people who know "

The Holy Quran 6:97



An entry for #Islam-Seeker contest .The theme was " Draw an Islam inspired pictured that has purple as its main color " .

What that guy holding is an astrolabe ,which is an ancient tool to locate positions with the help of stars .

I love how this ended ,even though it still have some unprofessional look but I don't know how to improve that .

I hope that you'll like it .

Wish me luck

The Quran, nevers, NEVERS ceases to amaze me Hiba, and this is so inspiring to how muslims in the past pioneered Astromony to what we have today.

Well done!

Good luck for the contest, it's very beautiful. I love astrolabes, I think it's one of the most beautiful objects ever created by humans. I would like to have one and learn to use it...
