The second theme is a comparative, analytical study of tombstones representing their raw materials and overall composition, and the scripts of inscriptions which vary between leafy Kufic, <em>Naskh</em>, and <em>T</em><em>huluth</em>, in addition to the names and titles of the deceased, the prayers, and the Hijri months.
