Overwhelmed with gratitude this Eid 😭I'll never for the life of me forget people who treated me with such kindness when I was broken and ill and they had nothing to gain🥲May Allah never allow us to take pure souls for granted.

Last year, I illustrated this now-published story which explores the topic of beareavement.
Inspired by a true story, it tells the story of Layla coming to terms with the loss of her grandad. It was bought to life with soft gouache washes and handpainted characters.

If they are hitting water infrastructure in Iran, that’s a crime against humanity on an enormous scale. I planned to publish something on Iran’s water crisis this week but it obviously got bumped. Iran was already in a critical state pre war, destroying water infrastructure will kill innocent people

Boxes with random colours inside with oil paint. The exercise is to choose three colours + white and mix them without caring about form and see which colours look nice ^^

Experimenting with colours. Doing 10 minutes of dhikr before my art sessions has really helped.

Oh I remember DeviantArt's glory days. So fun. Maybe create threads of posts with comics and artists with the same theme? I agree- zines are amazing🥰

Idk what do you all imagine we could do to bring community back into online public art spaces (not private, like Discord)?

The IDF just ordered the *entirety of south Lebanon* to be forcibly displaced.

They are emptying the land of its population, creating a massive crisis, and will now proceed to further annihilate large parts of Lebanon.

The very nation state of Lebanon is being destroyed.

Also all art pieces in the salat corner are mine except the lovely Zamzam piece to the top right- that’s by the inspiration that is Saleha Art Contractor.

I feel a bit blocked from working on too many art projects one after the other- working on so many finalised pieces has really fed into my perfectionism and I'm hoping to loosen up.🙏

Aka no social media is the plan- wish me luck this time. Logging off is more for spiritual reasons. Also promised myself not to work on any art.

My salat corner- a prayer mat, Qur'an, prayer beads, lamp, and calligraphic art on the wall. Text says- logging off from this Monday evening until after Eid insha'Allah. Won't be working on art either.

Or at least I'll try- will likely maybe check my phone once a day for a few minutes in case someone calls me. And my emails.

Maybe it’s because I’m a colonial historian but so many of these white nation states seem to behave exactly like they did in the 19th century: ‘your leaders aren’t right for you,’ ‘we’re only killing you/colonizing you/installing puppet leaders for your own good’

I'm based in Doha, for the record. These takes are justifying the regional escalation that I've spent the past +12 hours listening to😅

The US is a violent state that has destroyed countless lives around the world including when the president in power *followed US law*

Respectfully, u don't need to agree with this war to justify it. You just need to repeat justifying talking points. I've seen with my own country, Algeria, how the media lied and painted a completely different picture than the reality. Also palestine. I prefer to focus on what is verifiable.

The bombing is happening after we learned of progress in the nuclear talks.

The lesson continues to be that you can never trust Americans.

Any state threatened by the Americans will have concluded by now that their only safety is to develop nukes asap, surely?

The US and Israel are bombing Iran. Anyone reporting it as “preventive” is engaging in propaganda, by definition. There is no interpretation of what’s happening as anything else than a crime.

You don’t have to like the Iranian regime to understand why this is bad.
