Angels Among Us
A Set of Two Fine Art Prints

Angels Among Us is a cherished two-piece set of fine art prints—faithful replicas of original paintings from Mariam Rajput’s 2018 collection, which sold out shortly after release. Inspired by the sacred beauty of Surah Al-Fatiha, these works offer a contemplative and spiritual presence for any space.

Originally created using pure silver leaf over acrylic and textured gel mediums on stretched cotton canvas, each piece captures the elegance of Arabic calligraphy and the depth of devotion embedded in the Holy Quran.

On the first canvas is written:

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Rahim
"In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful."

The second features the full Surah Al-Fatiha, written in a graceful circular formation of calligraphy, encircling the viewer in divine remembrance:

1. "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful."

2. "All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the Worlds."

3. "The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful."

4. "Master of the Day of Judgment."

5. "You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help."

6. "Guide us to the straight path."

7. "The path of those You have blessed—not those who have earned Your anger or gone astray."

The power and significance of this Surah are further illuminated by the narration of Ibn ‘Abbas (ra), who said:

“While Jibril was with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), he heard a sound from above. Lifting his gaze, he said, ‘A door has opened in the heavens today that has never been opened before.’ An angel descended and said, ‘Rejoice in the good news of two lights given uniquely to you: the Opening of the Book (Surah Al-Fatiha) and the last verses of Surah Al-Baqarah. You will not recite a single letter from them without receiving their reward.’”
— Sahih Muslim

This set is a tribute to the divine presence felt in sacred words—a reminder of the angels that walk among us, and the unseen beauty they carry.
