The expansion of Naskh, both in terms of its geographical spread and its influence on other art forms, is a testament to its enduring appeal. As Islamic civilization flourished, Naskh calligraphy spread across a vast region, from Spain to India, influencing local art forms and scripts. For instance, the development of Ottoman calligraphy in Turkey owes a significant debt to Naskh, as does the beautiful calligraphy seen in Persian manuscripts.
