Ali and Nafisa talk about faith and art and healing and Sadaqatun Jariya, Ongoing Charity.

About the Guest:

In the world of art, I find my passion in Islamic art. It's a beautiful blend of calligraphy, calligrafitti, and tezhip art. These artistic forms allow me to express the rich cultural heritage in unique ways. But my journey doesn't stop there. I've embraced mindful drawing as a way to bring calmness to the mind. It's not just about creating art; it's about creating a peaceful space for the soul. As an art therapist, I've discovered the incredible power of art in healing. It goes beyond colors and strokes; it's a tool for connecting with emotions and finding inner balance. I guide others on this journey of self-discovery and healing through my artistic expertise. Teaching is another facet of my life. I am an educator who believes in sharing the beauty and significance of Islamic art. I want to inspire a deep appreciation for these art forms, helping others understand their cultural roots and contemporary relevance. Poetry is my way of painting with words. I express emotions and reflections through verses that capture the essence of moments. My writing extends to journaling, where I document thoughts and feelings, often accompanied by visual expressions that tell stories without words. Empowering women holds a special place in my heart. Through workshops, I use art as a means to inspire and build confidence. These sessions are not just about creating art; they're about creating a space where women can discover their strength and celebrate their uniqueness. Art, for me, is a universal language that connects people. Through mindful drawing, poetry, and workshops, I invite others to join me on a journey of self-expression and growth. I believe that art has the power to transcend boundaries, fostering understanding and appreciation among diverse cultures and generations. In the simplicity of strokes and the depth of colors, my bio unfolds as a story of passion, creativity, and a dedication to making a positive impact through the transformative power of art.
