description The Kiswah of the Holy Kaaba possesses aesthetic values and dimensions embodied through the artistic composition of Arabic calligraphy, and this artistic composition is considered a wonderful aesthetic artistic issue that arouses admiration, appreciation and reverence. Therefore, this study aims to reveal the aesthetic systems with plastic artistic values present in the linear formations embodied in the dress of the Holy Kaaba, according to a methodological perspective and an artistic vision. The question that arises, which embodies the research problem, is gathered by the researcher into a main question: Can the researcher analyze the aesthetic systems of Arabic calligraphy and calligraphic formations in the covering of the Holy Kaaba and formulate them in a contemporary artistic language? Based on the nature of the study and the goals it seeks to achieve, the researcher used the content analysis approach, which is an approach suitable for this type of aesthetic study related to describing works of art. Regarding the study tool, observation will be the fundamental tool used in this study. The study population is represented by the collection of Arabic calligraphy and calligraphic formations in terms of the semantic and aesthetic functions of the covering of the Holy Kaaba.
