A LIGHT WITHIN II

Intricate mirror-work mosaic jaali screens immersed within the quiet elegance of the Amiri Suite lobby at the Raffles Doha; a sparkling contrast of reflections within the landscape of bookmatched Carrera marble.

A LIGHT WITHIN
The Series
Islamic Art perfectly encapsulates the paradoxical nature of Duality: revealed and secret, simple and complex, process and result, introspection with revelation. This duality is also illustrated in two of Allāh’s 99 Names, Al Bātin, The Hidden and Az-Zāhir, The Manifest.
The title of this ongoing series references a beautiful parable in the Holy Qur'ān, from Sūrah an-Noor, verse 35, which speaks of Spiritual Light, and of which Allāh is the Supreme Source.
