Answer:

D. It uses natural motifs in religious art.

Step-by-step explanation:

Figurative images are avoided in Islamic art to prevent them from becoming objects of worship, due to aniconism the Islamic artists used in figurative art and shifted to geometrical decoration. Islamic geometric patterns evolved from the simple designs that were used in Greek, Sassanian and Roman art. Geometric patterns, Arabesque and Islamic Calligraphy are three forms of decoration in Islamic arts, Interlace pattern is also widely used.
