he first of those to gain popularity was known as the Kufic script, which was angular, made of square and short horizontal strokes, long verticals, and bold, compact circles .....for example
Naskh was one of the earliest scripts to evolve. It gained popularity only after being redesigned by Ibn Muqlah in the 10th century AD.......for example
The Diwani script is a cursive style of Arabic calligraphy developed during the reign of the early Ottoman Turks (16th and early 17th centuries). It was invented by Housam Roumi and reached its height of popularity under Süleyman I the Magnificent (1520–66)......for example
and
the easiest script called Ruqah (small sheet), is rounded and densely structured with short horizontal stems. Req'aa has a close affinity with Thuluth. But Req'aa developed in a different direction from Thuluth -- Req'aa became simplified..... for example
