Radya Djibril

My name is Radya, and I am a young community leader passionate about strengthening the connection between faith and creativity. Through my work with youth and families, I strive to inspire and motivate each person to explore their values and cultivate spirituality in everyday life. My project on the Names of Allah reflects my desire to share beauty, meaning, and knowledge through art, using calligraphy and painting to bring people closer to their Creator. I believe in the power of artistic expression as a way to learn, reflect, and build a spiritual connection.

Asma Allah al-Husna & Calligraphy

This project offers a series of weekly workshops for Muslim women, combining authentic learning of Allah’s Names with artistic calligraphy. Each session includes spiritual learning, personal reflection, and the creation of a canvas artwork. The goal is to strengthen faith, encourage creativity, and build a nurturing space of sisterhood within the community.

      How the project works

      My project is about creating paintings inspired by the Names of Allah, each one paired with a short explanation of its meaning. Every week, we focus on one Name, from the idea to the final artwork, while sharing reflections and teachings along the way.
