The path is for the one who believed.
The rain had not yet come, but he built anyway — a great ark on dry land, while the world around him laughed. They saw a madman building a ship where there was no sea. Prophet Nuh (AS) saw what was coming.
Made on deep-navy heavyweight fabric with a cream collar, and an original Arabic phrase embroidered at the back. Hand-embroidered to order.
Every stitch, a narration.
A STORY WORTH SHARING
Above the Flood draws from the story of Prophet Nuh (Noah, AS) and the great flood. He built his ark on dry land as his people mocked him — a ship where there was no sea. On one side, his nearly finished ark rests near the shore as the waters begin to rise; on the other, a village stands unaware as the wave gathers behind it — the two fates divided by the zipper between them. A piece about preparing while the world sleeps — about which side of the water you choose to be on.
No. Out of respect, Riwaya never places Quranic verses or hadith on any garment. Any Arabic on our pieces is an original phrase written for the brand. Our storytelling is carried through embroidered scenes and original words never sacred scripture worn on the body.
The wave embroidery is dense and richly textured, which gives the piece its weight and presence. It's distributed across the front so the jacket stays comfortable to wear. Expect a substantial, structured feel this is a garment built to be worn for years, not a lightweight graphic piece.
