THE WORD, THE ROCK, THE CAMEL

90 years of handcrafting products brings to you a teak wood box, graced with an abstract Islamic geometrical pattern on its cover, which holds within it

The Word:

We begin in the name of Allah most gracious most merciful.

The Rock:

Each piece of an agate is unique as it is distinguished by impressive shades of natural colours and contrast in the band patterns it contains. In Islam, the agate stone, or "Aqiq" in Arabic, holds a significant place in tradition and spirituality. Agate is regarded as a blessed gemstone with benefits and virtues. It is especially associated with protection, health, and strengthening faith. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is said to have worn a ring with a red agate (Aqiq), which has made the stone even more valued among Muslims.

The Camel:

For Arabia nothing is more essential than the camel, used for centuries for food, transport, as a war machine and companion. It also carries with it the spirit & stories of the desert. Their significance is reflected in Arabic poetry and literature, where they are often praised for their loyalty and strength. In Islam, camels are mentioned in the Quran as a sign of God's creation, emphasizing their unique design and functionality.
