Islamic Wall Clocks — Quranic Calligraphy and Arabic Art in Metal
An Islamic wall clock does more than tell time — it brings the words of the Quran and the symbols of faith into the daily life of a home. Every clock in this collection is built on a metal frame with Quranic calligraphy, Arabic numerals, or Islamic geometric patterns laser-cut or engraved into the surface. Gold and black finishes. Sizes from 15 inches to 24 inches. Prices from ₹1,799.
These are the designs most commonly placed in the drawing room, the dining wall, and the main entrance of Muslim homes in India — visible, meaningful, and crafted to last.

The 24-inch Alhamdulillah and Alif Waw designs are our most popular large Islamic wall clocks. At 24 inches, the calligraphy is readable from across a standard Indian living room — the words of the Quran are not decoration at this size, they are a statement. For smaller rooms and hallways, the 18-inch designs provide the same visual impact in proportion to the wall space available.
Ayatul Kursi Wall Clocks — The Most Requested Design
Ayatul Kursi (Verse 2:255, Surah Al-Baqarah) is the most widely placed Quranic verse in Muslim homes in India. The verse describes the sovereignty of Allah over all creation and is considered one of the most powerful verses in the Quran for protection of the home. Placing Ayatul Kursi at the main entrance or in the drawing room is a practice common across Indian Muslim households regardless of regional background or sect.
Two Ayatul Kursi wall clock designs are available in this collection: the Ayatul Kursi Written Islamic Wall Clock (18–20 inch, black or gold finish, from ₹2,489) and the Ayatul Kursi with Allah in Centre Circular design (24 inch, full black or gold finish). Both use laser-engraved Arabic calligraphy on a metal clock face with standard quartz AA battery movement.
Why Metal for Islamic Wall Art
-
Durability — metal holds calligraphy detail sharply for years. Wood cracks and MDF warps in Indian humidity. Metal does not.
-
Finish quality — gold and black PVD finishes do not tarnish or chip the way spray-painted or lacquered metal does. The finish you see on delivery day is the finish you see in year five.
-
Legibility — laser-cut and engraved Arabic calligraphy on metal is sharper and more readable than printed or embossed equivalents. The words of the Quran deserve precision craftsmanship.
-
Weight and presence — a metal Islamic wall clock has a physical weight that communicates permanence. These are not disposable décor items — they are pieces meant to stay on the wall for decades.
Care
Dust with a dry microfibre cloth weekly. For gold-finish pieces in coastal cities (Mumbai, Chennai, Kochi, Vizag), wipe with a slightly damp cloth monthly to remove salt deposits from sea air. Do not use abrasive cleaners or metal polish on calligraphy detail — they can dull the engraved lines. Battery replacement: standard AA, changed annually or when the clock slows.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Islamic wall clock design is best for the main entrance of a home?
- Ayatul Kursi and Assalamu Alaikum are the most traditional choices for a main entrance. Ayatul Kursi is placed for protection of the home. Assalamu Alaikum (the Islamic greeting) is placed to greet all who enter. Both are available in gold and black finishes in 18–20 inch sizes suited to standard Indian entryways.
- What is the price of an Islamic wall clock in India?
- DecoraHub Islamic wall clocks start at ₹1,799 for 15–16 inch designs and go up to ₹6,199 for large Allah Muhammad pieces. The most popular range is ₹2,399–₹3,199 for standard 18–20 inch designs. All prices include free pan-India delivery.
- Do you have large Islamic wall clocks above 20 inches?
- Yes. The Alhamdulillah Islamic Wall Clock, Alif Waw Large Islamic Wall Clock, Decorative Arabic Metal Islamic Wall Clock, and several other designs are available in 24-inch size — our largest standard size. These are suited to large drawing rooms, dining walls, and double-height living spaces in villas and 3BHK apartments. For sizes above 24 inches, contact us for a custom order.
- Which wall should an Islamic clock be placed on as per Vastu and Islamic tradition?
- In Islamic tradition, placing Quranic verses on the north or east walls of the home is common practice, as these directions are associated with auspiciousness in both Islamic and Vastu frameworks. The main entrance wall is considered the most powerful placement for protective verses like Ayatul Kursi. Avoid placing Quranic calligraphy in bathrooms or areas where it may face disrespect.
- Is the calligraphy on these clocks accurate?
- Yes. All Quranic calligraphy used in this collection has been reviewed for accuracy before production. The Arabic script is laser-engraved directly onto the metal surface — not printed, stickered, or painted on. If you notice any concern with the calligraphy on a specific product, contact us immediately and we will address it.
