Islamic artists harness creativity through intricate geometric patterns, arabesques, and calligraphy, all of which symbolize the infinite nature of creation. This approach transcends individualism and highlights a collective aspiration to portray the divine presence in the material world. The repetition and symmetry in their works are not just aesthetic choices but a testament to an unending pursuit of knowledge and the mystical dimensions of the universe.

In essence, creativity in Islamic art is a meditative act, where the artist’s skill and imagination converge to express the unity, beauty, and harmony of existence. This unique blend of spirituality and artistry serves as a bridge, connecting the physical and metaphysical, the finite, and the infinite. Accordingly, this talk will focus on what creativity means from the approach of Asmāʼ al-Ḥusnā, how the sufis justify it, and how Muslim artists cast and express creativeness.
