Decorating Walls With Bismillah Art
Begin the
day with ‘Bismillah’. Take your first bite with ‘Bismillah’. Going for a
medical surgery or embarking on a long haul flight? Remember to say
‘Bismillah’. What is the meaning and significance of ‘Bismillah’ or its complete
form ‘Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Raheem’? ‘Bismillah’ in English means ‘In the Name
of Allah’ whereas ‘Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Raheem’ is Arabic for ‘In the Name of
Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful’. When a Muslim starts his day or
any work – big or small, routine or special -- he recites or remembesthe Beautiful
Name of Allah. It would not be a wonder thus to see the verse framed on the
walls of Muslim homes. On the Internet, it is likely many people look up ‘Bismillah art online’ and ‘Best Bismillah art’.
‘Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Raheem’is
the first verse of the Holy Quran. It is also the first verse of all 114 surahs
(chapters) of the Quran, except one. This very fact itself signifies the importance
of this verse. Since the Word of Allah starts with this verse, then why should
not the mere humble and mortal human being also begin his every day and his every
taskwith ‘Bismillah’?
Apart
from the above-mentioned scriptural significance of ‘Bismillah’, following are
the reasons for the benefits of saying the verse.
Scholar Sheikh
Maududi, in his commentary (tafseer) of the Holy Quran, has said:
1) (Saying Bismillah) allows one to
restrain oneself from any misdeeds, since the habit of pronouncing the name of
God is bound to make one wonder when about to commit some offence and how such
an act can be reconciled with the saying of God’s holy name.
2)
When a
person begins something by pronouncing Allah’s (God’s) name (with sincerity in
his heart), he will enjoy Allah’s support and succour; Allah will bless his
efforts and protect him from the machinations and temptation of Satan. For
whenever man turns to Allah (God), Allah turns to him as well.
According to Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid, when
one says ‘Bismillaah’ before starting anything, it means, “I start this action
accompanied by the Name of Allah or seeking help through the Name of Allah,
seeking blessing thereby. Allah is God, the beloved and worshipped, to Whom
hearts turn in love, veneration and obedience (worship). He is al-Rahman (the
Most Gracious) Whose attribute is vast mercy; and al-Raheem (the Most Merciful)
Who causes that mercy to reach His creation.’
Most certainly and without a shred of doubt thus,
the verse ‘Bismillah’ holds a lot of spiritual significance in the life of each
and every Muslim. It thus comes as no surprise that several Muslims look up the
Internet for ‘Bismillah
art online’ and ‘Best Bismillah
art’so that they can purchase beautiful calligraphic artworks of this verse
in order to frame them and decorate the walls of their homes with them. It is a
much sought-after artwork in the field of Islamic wall art and is available
across mediums – canvas prints, wall decals, metal frames et al.
