Hello, friends. Peace be with you all. I am a Christian teacher who occasionally teaches on other faiths. I try to cover, faithfully and accurately, the basic elements of Islam: the five pillars, the life of Muhammad (peace be upon him), the holy Koran, and generally try to emphasize the common origin of Islam, Christianity, and Judaism in the life and faith of Abraham. I pray to God always that my students will gain an appreciation and respect for Islam, and that in some small way I am undoing some of the harmful stereotypes, misconceptions, and untruths that many Christians have about Islam.
I have a poster in my room of Arabic calligraphy. I know the larger portion on the bottom is "Allah", but I would like to know what is written in the smaller circular calligraphy. Is anyone able to help me?
Many thanks in advance. I hope the link attaches the image correctly! http://iqra.org/mmIqra/Images/799303_500.gif

It says "Jalla Jalaluhu" which can be translated as "May His glory be glorified".

Say: "Truly, my prayer and my service of sacrifice, my life and my death, are (all) for Allah, the Cherisher of the Worlds. (Surat al-Anaam: 162)
