Milkyroad. Qalam - making calligraphy reed pen for Arabic, Perisan, Urdu

The traditional tool used by professional calligraphers in the Middle East and by artists worldwide. Van Gogh created some of his drawings using a reed pen. Talmud says the Bible was written using a reed pen! Qalam was also used in Europe during the Middle Ages, brought by the crusaders from the Holy Lands. In the end of this video I wrote in Judaeo-Persian (aka ’Bukhari or Bukharian or jewish-tajik) ’bokhara-ye sharif’ meaning ’the Noble Bukhara’. Then I wrote Arabic letters Alif, Ba, Jim, Dal and words Salam (peace) and Qalam (pen). Arabic Alphabet is the second most widely spread after Latin. It is used - apart from Arabic in these languages: Persian (aka Farsi, Dari, Tajik) Pashto Urdu Azeri Kurdish Uyghur Kazakh Kyrghyz Turkman Uzbek (The last four only outside of the former USSR) Baluchi Punjabi Kashmiri Sindhi Salar Hebrew alphabet today is used by Hebrew and Yiddish and Ladino languages.
