export default contact;

You cannot use strings to represent React Component Types, instead you can use the imported ComponentType itself.

import { FaBeer, Fa500Px, FaAccusoft } from "react-icons/fa";

// here is data for I want to show

const data = [
  {
    contact: [
      {
        title: "contact",
        subtitle: "get in touch",
        icons: FaBeer,
      },
      {
        title: "contact",
        subtitle: "get in touch",
        icons: Fa500Px,
      },
      {
        title: "contact",
        subtitle: "get in touch",
        icons: FaAccusoft,
      },
    ],
  },
];

const Contact = () => {
  return (
    <>
      {data.map((e, i) => {
        const Icon = e.contact.icons;
        return (
          <>
            <div className="text-area">
              <h1 className="title">{e.contact.title}</h1>
              <h2 className="subtitle">{e.contact.subtitle}</h2>
              <span><Icon /></span>
            </div>
          </>
        );
      })}
    </>
  );
};

export default Contact;

Note how the rendering of Icon changes as well

I have gotten this type of method and I manage to do what I want

import React from "react";
import { render } from "react-dom";
import * as FontAwesome from "react-icons/lib/fa";

const Icon = props => {
  const { iconName, size, color } = props;
  const icon = React.createElement(FontAwesome[iconName]);
  return <div style={{ fontSize: size, color: color }}>{icon}</div>;
};

const App = () => {
  const iconString = "FaBeer";
  const beer = React.createElement(FontAwesome[iconString]);
  return (
    <div>
      <h2>Start editing to see some magic happen {"\u2728"}</h2>
      <FontAwesome.FaBeer />
      <div style={{ fontSize: 24, color: "orange" }}>{beer}</div>
      <Icon iconName={"FaBeer"} size={12} color="orange" />
    </div>
  );
};


----------


render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));
