Walaikumassalam Nousheen.
Women usually stop growing in height by around 20 years of age, but you can still grow until about the age of 24 years. I would recommend a good diet rich in calcium and enough exposure to the sun for vitamin D. Along with this take a multivitamin supplement, stretching exercises everyday, sports like basketball and swimming, a good posture at all times, etc.
Best wishes.
