India: Ayat al-Kursi ('The Throne Verse') from the Qur'an, Sura 2 'Al-Baqqara' presented in the form of a calligraphic horse. Deccan, c.1600

The Throne Verse (Arabic: آية الكرسي ‎ ʾāyatu-l-kursī), or Ayatul Kursi, is 255th verse (ayah) of the second chapter (sura) Al-Baqara.

It is perhaps the most celebrated verse of the Qur'an and is widely memorised and displayed across the Muslim World due to its emphatic description of God's power over the entire universe.
