Taʿlīq script
A Taʿlīq sample
The taʿlīq script is a script style in Islamic calligraphy designed specifically to satisfy the needs of the Persian language. It was widely used, especially in Persianate societies, until being replaced by the Nastaʿlīq script.[1] Taʿlīq (tâlik) is also generally used as the name for the Nastaʿlīq script in the Turkish language[2] and often in the Arabic language.[3]
