The exhibition presents visual panels, informational materials and prayers in Church Slavonic, Arabic, Turkish, Hebrew and Armenian languages, also performed as chants in specific religious feasts. Visitors can see the Arabic original of Al-Fātiḥah, which is the first chapter (sūrah) of the Quran, as well as the Hayr mer (Our Father) prayer in Armenian and the Hebrew Haggadah, dating back to the 14th century.
