Answer:

In fact, it is an innovation - which is not good - mentioned by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as one of the many signs of the last days.

People got it into their heads to decorate the masjid (mosque) with calligraphy. But it would have been better to remian doing what the Prophet did, which was to leave the walls pure so that they do not distract from worship.

Why we do not have paintings of people? because that is what idol worshippers do. It is forbidden by God. Christians do it because they are a faith mixed with Roman paganism. But Jews and Muslims do not. Ever.

What forms of decoration is there in a mosque?

There are no portraits of anyone or paintings of animals, as this may cause the Muslim to worship the painting instead of God. There are no statues or 'idols' for the same reason. To decorate the mosque there is patterns and often photo's/paintings of the great mosque's such as the Kabbah in Mecca. Also Muslims decorate the mosque with Scripture from the Qu'ran. In richer countries there is often a decorative carpet.
