I've always kind of wondered how readable islamic calligraphy actually is. Like, can your average reader of Arabic look at that and immediately grok what the writing is, or do you have to stare at it for five minutes while you puzzle it out.

I'm not that good at arabic so hard to say how representative it is, but for me it's definitely the latter even if I can read Arabic normally fine (that said it's a normal alphabet, nothing like chinese or even the korean/japanese syllabic characters, it's about as difficult as reading cursive english text).

e: Though that's a particularly bad example, I've seen calligraphy that's perfectly legible - usually the spiral kind, which is effectively the same thing as a spiralling cursive latin character text.

e2: Basically think something like this (gets points as an example for the religious theme too):
