Jami: A Journey Through History and Art Step into the world of Jami, a renowned poet and scholar whose works have left an indelible mark on history. From the exquisite folio from Haft Awrang to the captivating miniatures in Jami al-tawarikh, his influence is undeniable. As we delve deeper, we encounter Genghis Khan, the formidable emperor who founded an empire that stretched across vast lands. The image of Tayang Khan presented with the head of Mongol leader Ong Khan reminds us of the brutal realities of conquest. Rashid al-Din's Compendium of Chronicles takes us on a historical voyage through time, where Jami's words find their place among great narratives, and is within these pages that we discover glimpses of Jame Mosque in Yazd, standing tall as a testament to Islamic architecture. Kublai Khan and his empress enthroned - a scene brought to life by Jami al-Twarikh - transports us back to imperial courts filled with grandeur and opulence. Meanwhile, Great Friday Mosque in Isfahan beckons travelers with its majestic beauty captured in Voyage Pittoresque. But it is not only art that defines Jami; he also finds himself entwined with real-life stories. In Delhi's old city lies a temporary sanctuary for Muslims seeking solace amidst trying times. And nearby stands a first-aid post near Jami Masjid Mosque, offering aid to those in need. Yusuf Being Rescued from the Pit illuminates our imagination through an illuminated manuscript on paper. Its intricate details bring forth emotions as we witness this tale unfold before our eyes. Finally, Aziz and Zulaykha enter Egypt's capital amid jubilant Egyptians greeting them warmly—a momentous occasion immortalized by Jami's words.
