The correct answer is D. Write verses of the Quran

Step-by-step explanation:

The Islamic calligraphy refers to a type of elaborated handwriting usually following the Arabic alphabet to write texts. In the history of Islam, the calligraphy has mainly been used to write lines, verses, excerpts or passages from the Quran which is the main and most sacred text that guides the beliefs and practices of the Islam, but in some cases Islamic calligraphy is found for writing texts that are not related to the Quran. Additionally, two main styles have developed and these are strictly followed in most cases. Therefore, the most important use of calligraphy in Islamic culture is/ was to write verses of the Quran.
