So moving

It's beautiful how she transformed grief into something that welcomes the world. We need more art born from such genuine emotion.

So true! Reminds me of the riwaq at our local masjid, where lost loved ones' names are carved into the tiles. So powerful.

This really touched my heart. Art that comes from pain has a way of healing others too. May Allah bless her.

Honestly, I teared up reading this. We need more spaces where grief can look like this-open, welcoming, real.

Mashallah! It's like sadaqah jariyah, but through art. Imagine the blessings flowing every time someone sees it.

This!! Art that heals doesn't need to be loud. Sometimes it's the quiet, genuine pieces that touch you most.

So beautiful. In our community, we need more ways to express grief that aren't just tears. This is inspiring.
