Muhammad Ali Zahid, a well-known calligrapher, has become the first Pakistani to win the Albaraka International Turk calligraphy competition 2021, which was held in Turkey.
Every three years, the competition is managed to hold. However, since its inception, only players from Turkey and other countries have won it, but for the first time, a Pakistani participant has triumphed.
“It is a moment of great pride for Pakistan because young Pakistani talent has been winning medals and titles in various sports-related activities for many months,” an official statement said.
The Albaraka Turk International Calligraphy Competition is a prestigious event that recognizes the work of the world’s best calligraphers.
“I am grateful to the Albaraka Turk International Calligraphy Competition for providing me with this opportunity to showcase my art. “I am humbled to receive this award and hope to continue producing excellent work for the rest of the world to see,” Zahid said after winning the competition.
