This is no ordinary rock (in Khaleej Times page 6)

ABU DHABI - This is no calligraphy - or any other type of man-made
artwork. It is a nature-made artefact that manifests the magnificence
of Allah in a finely-finished Arabic calligraphy style.
This naturally formed rock,which bears the name of Allah, The Almighty
and Prophet Mohammed (Peace Be Upon Him), was discovered by a Sri
Lankanbusinessman who broughtthe stone to the region so that it can be
kept in a museum or any other safe place.
M. S. Hameed, who is in Abu Dhabi visiting relatives, contacted
Khaleej Times to share, what he describes, as blessed signs of Allah,
withthe largest possible number of people.
"This a miracle of Allah. It is a magnificent artefact. It's beautiful
formation which is nature-made excels the finest decorative arts of
calligraphy," said Mr Hameed, who himself is anartefacts collector.
He claimed that the lettersappearing on the rock are formed in the
same order as in the seal of the Prophet.
"The most significant is the way the letters are written in the same
order as in the seal of Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) which is illustrated
in the encyclopedia of Islam, Letters of the Prophet.
According to a calligraphy expert who studied the piece of rock, the
inscription of the words (Allah), (Mohammed) and (Rasool or Prophet)
were found to be naturally created.
"This is no artificial work of art as no man could make such a genuine
and marvellous work of art," said Masliya Farook, a specialised expert
in art and calligraphy.
"I think this piece of semi-precious stone is of immense historical
and cultural value to the Muslim community throughout the world,"
added Mrs Farook.
The precious stone has also been certified by the Sri Lankan Gem
Testing Laboratory as a natural genuine quartz rough specimen that has
not been tampered in anyway.
