Conference Synopsis

The NISA Conference 2026 is a transformative two-day female-only gathering themed “The Aligned Soul”,  designed to inspire and help Muslim women to calibrate their mindset and embody the virtues outlined in Surah Al-Ahzab (33) verse 35:

"Indeed, the Muslim men and Muslim women, the believing men and believing women, the obedient men and obedient women, the truthful men and truthful women, the patient men and patient women, the humble men and humble women, the charitable men and charitable women, the fasting men and fasting women, the men who guard their private parts and the women who do so, and the men who remember Allah often and the women who do so - for them Allah has prepared forgiveness and a great reward.” 

• Translation Sahih International 

Through the wisdom of a renowned panel of speakers consisting of all women line-up of international scholars, Quran educators and influencers, and a holistic coach, you can explore pathways to cultivate piety and meaningful transformation. 

Inspired by the following hadith:  Abdullah bin 'Amr bin Al-'as (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, 'The world is but a (quick passing) enjoyment; and the best enjoyment of the world is a pious and virtuous woman.', the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) taught us that in a world of fleeting pleasures, consumed with materialistic pursuits, the greatest blessing, the finest treasure of life, is a woman whose soul is aligned with piety and virtue. 

The NISA Conference 2026 is intended as a gathering to nurture this vision and a sacred space for women to answer this call. 

Here, we come together not merely to learn, but to become women of integrity, wisdom, and spiritual depth who light the way for generations to come. 

The NISA Conference 2026 exists to awaken this greatness within you, to guide you toward becoming a beacon of righteousness, wisdom, and spiritual alignment. 

Through these two days, we invite you to discover the pious, virtuous woman you are called to be, and to transform that inner light into radiant service to your family and community.

This is our aspiration: to cultivate the Aligned Soul within each of you.
