Eight Qur’an pages written in Kufic script were purchased for the Center of Islamic Civilization
The Kufic script appeared at the end of the 7th century and the beginning of the 8th century in the city of Kufa, located in present-day Iraq. Since this style of writing developed specifically in that city, it was named “Kufic”. It originated from the Nabataean script of Arabic writing.
