Acrylic Painting on Canvas, 90x90 cm by Art Noor
An abstract expressionistic work with One of the 99 divine names of Allah:

Al Nur - The Light                                                                                                            This divine attribute and the name means:

He who provides divine light to the entire universe; to the faces, minds, and hearts of His servants.

“ALLAH IS THE LIGHT OF THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH. The parable of His Light is as if there were a Niche and within it a Lamp: the Lamp enclosed in Glass; the glass as it were a brilliant star: lit from a blessed Tree, an Olive, neither of the East nor of the West, whose Oil is well-nigh luminous, though fire scarce touched it: Light upon Light! Allah doth set forth Parables for men: and Allah doth know all things.”
(24:35) The Holy Quran

Allah is the divine light of all the world. His light illuminates the heart.
He is the light of wisdom and guidance. His light clarifies, manifests, and reveals.
The One light by which the obscure is made clear. He clears away all darkness and directs right.

“Al Nur is the visible One by means of whom all visibility exists. For that which itself is visible and makes others visible is called light.” Ghazali

Quran tells us: "He it is Who made the sun a shining brightness and the moon a light (a reflection)".|The Holy Quran (10:5)
