رَبِّ زِدْنِي عِلْمًا — my Lord, increase me in knowledge. It is the shortest dua a school ever needs, it comes from Surah Ta-Ha, and it is the one line that belongs above a classroom door rather than anywhere else in a building. This cut-out gives it in raised red foam, large enough to be read from the back of the room.

There is no board behind it. The whole piece is the calligraphy itself, cut as shaped foam letters and laid straight onto the wall, so the paint colour of the room becomes the background. On a cream or pale green wall the red reads beautifully; on a dark wall you would want to check with us first, because there is nothing behind the letters to lift them off the surface.

That construction is also why it suits a library or a staffroom as much as a classroom. A framed chart looks like teaching equipment; letters straight on the wall look like part of the building. Schools often put this one above the main door of the library and leave it there for years.

The romanisation on the banner reads RABI ZIDNI ILMA. You will more often see it written Rabbi Zidni Ilma with two b's, and both spellings point at the same dua — we mention it only so you are not surprised when the parcel arrives with the banner spelled the shorter way.

Nothing on the back of the letters is adhesive and no size is printed on the piece or the banner, so we claim neither. Because the letters go up individually, most buyers use glue dots rather than tape and set them out with a pencil line first.
