The results of this study show that the calligraphy in the tarbiyah mosque ornaments uses a lot of khaṭ ṣulūṣ and Kūfī. With its beautiful and diverse coloring and writing, it turns out that in reality it is not necessarily able to make worshipers willing to read and understand the meaning of the writing. However, the writings written by the architect are the writings that Muslims usually say in their prayers. Calligraphic writing on tarbiyah mosque ornaments can be understood and read because it is part of the prayer sentence that Muslims often say.
