Calligraphic muraqqaʿs are important examples of Iranian-Islamic book arts, in which calligraphy, illumination, color, and page composition interact to create a unified visual experience. This study examines the principal aesthetic components of the muraqqaʿ known as Sultan Ali al-Katib, preserved at the Museum of Islamic Art in Doha, and investigates how they are manifested in its calligraphic arrangements and decorative features. A descriptive-analytical approach was adopted, combining documentary research with direct visual observation of high-quality images of the muraqqaʿ’s pages. To examine its attribution, the calligraphic features were also compared with recognized examples of Sultan Ali Mashhadi’s work. The aesthetic analysis focused on compositional proportion and balance, symmetry, color harmony, visual rhythm, and the relationship between calligraphy and illumination. The findings indicate that the muraqqaʿ’s visual coherence derives from the consistent use of calligraphy, restrained illumination, harmonious color relationships, and varied arrangements of written pieces. Calligraphy remains the dominant visual element, while decorative features enhance its prominence without overwhelming the written text. These findings demonstrate how the integration of calligraphy, illumination, and page design contributes to the aesthetic character of Safavid-period calligraphic muraqqaʿs.
