Qismah & Naseeb

Halla Bint Khalid

Qismah and Naseeb follows Adam’s day of spiritual growth, guided by Fate and Fortune as he learns to overcome selfishness and embrace gratitude, humility and generosity. Written and illustrated by Riyadh-based artist Halla Bint Khalid, this enchanting moral fable, inspired by Arabian Nights, delights children aged 8–11 and their parents alike.

Halla Bint Khalid is a Riyadh-based visual artist and storyteller working in a variety of mediums including drawing, painting and installation. Living within the rigid Saudi system, Halla uses her work to pose questions, encourage self-awareness and challenge limiting social norms. She is the co-owner of Gharem Studios, a non-profit organisation that encourages artists to explore their culture, heritage and personal truths.
