Mothana Alobaydi

Iraq, b. 1972

Mothanna Al-Obaidi, born in 1972 in Ramadi, Iraq, is a distinguished calligrapher renowned for his mastery of Arabic script. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from the University of Baghdad in 1995 and pursued his passion for calligraphy under the tutelage of Abbas Al-Baghdadi at the Iraqi Calligraphers Association, obtaining a high-level certification. In 2016, he was awarded an honorary Ph.D. in Islamic Art from Dar Assalam College in Istanbul. ([mkm.qurancomplex.gov.sa](https://mkm.qurancomplex.gov.sa/mothana-alobaidi/?utm_source=openai))

Al-Obaidi's artistic journey is marked by a harmonious blend of traditional and contemporary styles, often employing the Thuluth and Naskh scripts. His notable works include the calligraphy for the 'Mushaf Al-Faisal' completed in 2017 for the King Faisal Center for Research and Islamic Studies in Riyadh. He has showcased his art in solo exhibitions, such as the 2009 exhibition in Sharjah, invited by HRH Prince Sultan Al-Qasimi, and the 2017 exhibition in Luxembourg.

Throughout his career, Al-Obaidi has received numerous accolades, including first prize in Thuluth script at the Fourth International Competition (Hamad Allah Al-Amasi) in Istanbul in 1998, the Iraqi Innovation Award for Art in 1999, the Burda Prize for Arabic Calligraphy in Abu Dhabi in 2009, and the Okaz Prize for Islamic Art in 2010. His contributions extend beyond personal creations; he has served as a jury member for the Islamic Art Forum in Muscat in 2011 and participated in the Sharjah International Forum in 2010.
