Chinese Calligraphy By Imam Haji Abdul Hakim @ Liu Jing Yi

The Beauty of Chinese Calligraphy

(If you are interested to buy Calligraphy, please email brother Mazlan via email : mazlanzaba@gmail.com )

I have seen this Chinese Calligraphy from internet before I embraced Islam.
I wasn't able to understand the meaning of Arab words, but somehow I can recognize this is drawn with traditional chinese writing brush. One of the most important and artistic calligraphy is chinese word itself. The meaning and structure of every swipe represent different meaning and expression.

Mazlan and his friends who studying at Beijing have form a group named as "Beijing Foreign Studies University". They are active in doing dakwa to China born muslim for strengthen their faith, also known as "Usrah". He informed me that the famous Chinese Calligrapher Liu Jing Yi will be coming to Sungai Siput, Perak at 28-29 January 2012. I feel so surprised with his attendance and spent some moment in visiting him.

Imam Liu Jing Yi was smiling broadly 

As what Mazlan have told me, Surau Al-Islamiyah Sungai Siput is organizing Hijrah Carnival every year. In the will of Allah SWT, Imam Liu Jing Yi also mentioned that he wanted visit Malaysia to promote his Calligraphy, so Beijing Foreign Studies University group and Mazlan was bring him along to this carnival. It would be a very precious effort to promote the beauty of Chinese Calligraphy, also the income they gained will be used for more and more dakwa activity for China born muslim.

• Taken at Hj. Shahrin Low Restaurant that prepare Chinese Muslim dishes
• Malay student who can speak chinese language fluently
• Calligrapher who enjoin the beauty of al-Quran verse with traditional chinese art work. 
• Mysterious blogger that dealing with mixed languages everyday, sometime he even have to click "Menu>Option>Language? > Bahasa Malaysia? > English? > Chinese? " inside his brain before he read and talk.   : p 

Say, "We have believed in Allah and in what was revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, and the Descendants, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus and to the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and we are Muslims [submitting] to Him."  

 ( Surat 'Āli `Imrān (Family of Imran)   3:84 )

I salam and hugged a lot with Muslimin without differ their race and grade since reverted to become Muslim. That's something that I never did before embrace Islam. That's the unity of Islam that bringing us closer, much closer than any friends I have at childhood times. When we smile and greet each other, we are fully understand that we are following the same guide towards Allah SWT, there are nothing are alike Him on earth as indeed He who created universe and mankind.
