“Both Christianity and Islam are logocentric,â€ he told his students, â€œmeaning they are focused on the Word. In Christian tradition, the Word became flesh in the book of John: â€˜And the Word was made flesh, and He dwelt among us.â€™ Therefore, it was acceptable to depict the Word as having a human form. In Islamic tradition, however, the Word did not become flesh, and therefore the Word needs to remain in the form of a word â€¦ in most cases, calligraphic renderings of the names of the holy figures of Islam.”
